Welcome back to the Casino Copenhagen and Day 4 of the EPT Copenhagen!
Our final 24 players are just a few minutes from taking their seats and rescuing their chips that have been trapped in thin plastic bags all night. Roberto Romanello has the most chips to rescue, his count of 1.4 million putting him squarely atop the heap. But there's a charge mounting from the pack; Andrew Teng is right on Romanello's heels, and Peter Eastgate is still well in the hunt to capture his first EPT title in his home country.
There's a new addition to the tournament room today; the familiar blue EPT Live set is under construction on the near side of the room. That means there'll be a live stream of today's action for all of you poker junkies, and we're here to fill in all the gaps and tidbits you can't see on TV.
We're just a couple minutes away from getting going here, so don't wander too far. We'll be back when the cards go a'flying.
There is an awful lot of milling going on in the tournament area right now - various TV, media and tournament personnel are standing around, probably doing things that are invisible but terribly important.
Nevertheless the players are mostly seated already and engaged in building little forts out of their respective chip stacks like men who are not planning to part with them. Our guess is that we will be getting under way within five or ten minutes. Please stand by.
Morten Guldhammer raised on the button and chip leader Roberto Romanello called in the big blind.
Romanello check-called a bet from Guldhammer on the flop and check-called again when Guldhammer bet 40,000 (he tried to string-bet another 2,000 but was put right) on the turn.
They saw a river and Romanello checked again. This time Guldhammer paused for a long time, and then announced all in. After a moment Romanello folded, and Guldhammer triumphantly turned over for absolutely nothing. He fist-pumped, and then made a chicken noise as he raked in the pot, which elicited a few laughs but seemed rather ungentlemanly.
We caught up with the feature table action just in time to see Peter Eastgate calling a 220,000 bet from Damien Fouquet on the river of a board - only to muck when Fouquet turned over pocket fives for a full house.
With that, Fouquet may have snuck the chip lead on around 1.4 million. Last Team PokerStars Pro Eastgate is knocked right back down to 270,000.
Anton Wigg raised in the cutoff, and small blind Nicolo Calia, whose already short stack had been gently declining all day and had just the previous hand been forced to fold his big blind to a raise from Magnus Hansen, pushed all in. After a moment's deliberation, Wigg called.
