Bevand Another One's Down, and Another One's Down, Another One Bites the Dust

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
Marius Heiene and Chaz Chattha
Marius Heiene and Chaz Chattha

This time it's Chaz Chattha heading to the payout area while Manuel Bevand rises to a towering 750,000.

So often the two players in the blinds can play out a snowball of a pot, and this was no exception. Small blind Chattha had a stack of 100k over the line on a flop of {10-Spades}{5-Hearts}{5-Spades} and must have check-raised big blind Bevand. Bevand, however, wasn't going anywhere - and there was, out of the blue, a huge showdown:

Bevand: {K-Spades}{10-Diamonds}
Chattha: {J-Clubs}{10-Clubs}

The turn and river came {8-Spades}{4-Hearts} and with a handshake Chattha's gone.

Pagano On the Ropes

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 500 ante
Luca Pagano: no call, back to the grind
Luca Pagano: no call, back to the grind

He's been here before and he'll be here again - making the money in an EPT seems to be as normal as breakfast for Team PokerStars Pro Luca Pagano. However his stack could use some feeding - he just lost a pot to new table leader and fellow Italian Marco Leonzio. Leonzio check-raised Pagano's 34k bet on a {10-Clubs}{A-Spades}{2-Clubs} by 41,000 and Pagano, after thinking for a while let it go.

Pagano: 105,000
Leonzio: 620,000

MacPhee Breaks Through 1m Mark As He Rumbles Richter

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 500 ante
Kevin MacPhee
Kevin MacPhee

The chip leader at the end of Day 1b and Day 2, Dirk Richter has been eliminated at the hands of EPT Berlin Champion Kevin MacPhee.

Joining the hand on the {k-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{7-Clubs} flop, Richter checked, MacPhee bet 33,500 only to see Richter check-raise all in! MacPhee quickly called and the hands were revealed!

MacPhee: {k-Spades}{j-Hearts} - For top pair

Richter: {a-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} - For complete air! Seriously!

The dealer burned and dealt the {3-Spades} turn, meaning the river had to be one of the three remaining aces or he would have crashed and burned in spectacular fashion.

River: {7-Hearts} - Game over for Richter as MacPhee becomes the first player to break through the one million chip mark!

Liviu Hard to Push Off

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 500 ante

Blind vs. blind just now, and Ruslan Prydryk took his small blind opportunity to put in a raise to 18k. Big blind Liviu Ignat made the call. A similar pattern followed on the {A-Spades}{7-Spades}{K-Diamonds} flop - this time a lead of 25k and a quick call. The turn was the {10-Spades} and bet by neither player, but the river saw Prydryk bet out 34k. Ignat took quite a while to measure out the call and make it, but he was rewarded by seeing his {K-Hearts}{5-Spades} was ahead - Prydrik flipped {6-Clubs}{2-Clubs} for a total bluff.
