Barry Greenstein had really just shrapnel when he found a good spot, getting it in with 
against 
. The board came down a pretty decisive 
and Greenstein doubled up to the princely sum of 19,000 - that's around 12 big blinds.

By the by, we lost 72 whole players in the first level - that's almost one a minute.
All the same, reach for the stars! Let's see if we can improve on that this round.
Liv Boeree is down to 46,000 after losing a 50,000 pot to David Steicke.
We didn't see the action before both players checked the river of the 
board, but we do know that Boeree was good until that fateful river - she turned over 
, but Stecike's 
had got there in the end.
Steicke is up to 225,000.
The next stop on the European Poker Tour is the Vienna leg on October 26-31. You can qualify for this event and many more exclusively at PokerStars.
Just before the break, Joep van den Bijgaart opened preflop to 2,600 and Walid Bouhabib flat-called in the small blind. The flop came 
and Bouhabib check-raised the Dutch player's 3,800 continuation bet to 8,000.
Van den Bijgaart wasn't going anywhere though and made it 22,200 to go before Bouhabib pushed all-in and was quickly called.
Bohabib: 
Van den Bijgaart: 
There was a couple of minutes waiting for the camera to get into place, so much that Neil Channing said, "Corr, they make you f**king sweat here..."
The on the turn made the flush but also gave Bouhabib a few outs for a full house, but the river was 
. Van den Bijgaart had managed to find enough clubs that he would probably be able to take part in the Ryder Cup, he has 220,000.

One level into the day, we're off for the first 15-minute break. Back in a flash.
Vicky Coren was all in before the flop with 
, running them straight into the 
of her neighbor Claire Renaut.
The flop missed Coren, coming 
, but the turn gave her another four outs to work with. The river 
was a blank, though, and Coren has bowed out gracefully. Renaut apologized (for knocking her out, we guess), but Coren told her not to and wished her luck today as she was whisked off to the interview booth.
For Renaut's part, things aren't getting any easier. The vacant seat left by Coren was soon filled by none other than Phil Ivey, and she'll have him to deal with until they get a table break.
Boris Becker is busto after smacking his pocket kings into someone else's aces. Zero help from the board, and it's one-love, the other guy.
We're not sure whether Annette Obrestad (small blind) checked the 
flop before her opponent, we believe one Ronny Johansen, bet 5,500. Either way, Obrestad raised to 16,300. After a minute Johansen called.
The turn was the 
and this time Obrestad bet out 35,000, almost enough to cover Johansen. He tanked... and tanked... he tanked long enough for three players to bust out on adjacent tables, five minutes at least...
..And then he announced all in. The necessary call came swiftly, and they were at showdown.
Johansen: 
for an overpair
Obrestad: 
for a pair of sixes and all the draws in the world
River:
Johansen doubled to 130,000. Obrestad was left with around 50,000.
