Walking over to his table, we see him at it again, open-raising to 1,550 from the button. Both blinds (Mohamed Sekh and Florent Marques) came along with him, and the flop brought
. When the blinds checked it over, Kabrhel continued out with a bet of 3,275. This time Sekh was the only caller, and the two live players watched fourth street bring the 
. Sekh took control now, making a leading bet of 4,200. Kabrhel went into the tank for a few minutes, long enough for another player at the table to call time. Just a few seconds into his final minute of thought, though, Kabrhel kicked it in.He's been losing his fair share of pots of late, but Kabrhel is still quite healthy with about 77,000 in chips.

down on a board showing 
. Gilles Mammou was first to speak, and he led out with a bet of 2,500. Voitto Rintala was his only foe, and the long-haired rocker sat in the tank for a few long minutes before moving all in for 13,000 straight. After some tank time of his own, Mammou made the call with the covering stack. Neither man wanted to show first, and the dealer had to coax a showdown from the two men. This is not a cash game, fellas; cards on their backs:Mammou:
Rintala:
It was Rintala at risk, and he was trailing the top pair of Mammou. The river was the
just to rub it in, and Rintala has made his exit.
flop, Sekh added 3,350 to Kabrhel's bet, and Martin called. Turn:
Both players checked to see the free river:
Kabrhel aggressively eyed Sekh's stack before counting out a bet of 6,625. Sekh gave Kabrhel what he appeared to want, sliding all of his chips into the middle. But Kabrhel quickly mucked.
"Good fold," snapped Sekh, tossing two useless

He raised from the button and Khier Rezaik in the small blind called - but then his phone rang, and since he answered it, his hand was declared dead and mucked. Hope it was important.
Anyway, the action moved over to Joost Poelhuis in the big blind, who made it 6,000. Back to Cao, who tanked up for some time. "You have ace-king?" he ventured. Eventually the clock was called, and after another moment's dwelling, Cao re-reraised enough to cover Poelhuis, who amde a face and thought about it briefly before calling all in. Not looking good for the Dutch qualifier...

Poelhuis enjoys a full double up to perhaps 40,000, while Cao is back down to averagey 47,000.
board. With nearly 10,000 already in the middle, Zguba threw in two 5,000 chips, enough to put Paasonen all in. Mika looked a little pained but made the call for his tournament life.Paasonen:
Zguba:
The river bluff left Zguba with around 35,000 and moved Paasonen up to nearly 18,000.
flop and Nicky Evans moved all in. Arnault asked for a count, but called before the chips were all totted up. On their backs. Now concentrate! Here comes the hilarious part...

Choppity chop.
Fortunately, they seem to be good neighbors.
