Killing Time with Julien Brecard

While we're letting this level kick into full swing, it appears you've got just about three minutes to kill. You could go toast a Pop-Tart or do a few sets of pushups. Or you could just sit there and watch this lovely video we've prepared for you. During one of the earlier breaks, Gloria caught up with Team PokerStars Pro Julien Brecard. The gregarious Frenchman always takes time out to chat with us, even on his birthday! Check it out:

Alexander the Red

We saw a bit of a disturbance over at Alexander Kravchenko's table, so we scurried over to see what was what.

When we joined the situation, there was a board of {3-Clubs} {J-Spades} {4-Diamonds} {A-Hearts} {2-Spades} spread out in the middle of the table, and it appeared that Kravchenko had the winning {5-Clubs} {6-Clubs} turned up in front of him. Despite having the winning hand, Kravchenko was standing hunched over the table, talking in a very frustrated tone and growing increasingly red of face.

The floor was in the middle of trying to reconstruct the rather large pot, as there was apparently a dispute about the number of chips in it. The issue was finally settled to everyone's satisfaction, and Kravchenko sat down to continue working on the chili he had been working on before the interruption.

Al Krav is up to 120,000 after dragging that big pot.

Chip Movers

We've just noticed that David Wintersberger has increased his chip count to a very healthy 210,000.

That's good, and it would be very excellent if not for the fact that birthday boy Julien Brecard is also playing today. Brecard has amassed a stack of more than 250,000 chips already, and there are still 20 minutes of work to be done.

Perner Climbing

Bernhard Perner is making a push to be the overnight chip leader, upping his stack to 246,000 after this hand.

A player in middle position raised to 2,500 and Perner popped it to 5,100 in the cutoff. Action folded around to the original raiser and he went all in for 26,000. Perner called immediately with {K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds} and had his opponent's {A-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds} in bad shape.

The board ran out {K-Clubs}{J-Spades}{2-Spades}{3-Spades}{6-Spades} and Perner took it down with a set of kings.
