flop from the small blind. Sebastian Bidinger bet 5,225 from the cutoff, and Roche now tried to min-raise except she announced 10,400. She was corrected to 10,450, and paid up the difference. Back to Bidinger who now three-bet to 25,225. Roche called.The turn was the
and Roche announced all in to cover, pushing all her chips across the line. "Do I have to stand up like on television?" she asked the dealer sweetly. "No, you don't have to," he told her, and his attention turned to Bidinger. Bidinger sat there sweating for a while, and eventually, rather reluctantly, called all in for 31,000.
Bidinger:
Roche:
"Wow wow wow you are so sick!" Bidinger exploded, both relieved and astounded.
River:
They shook hands and Roche didn't look particularly bothered about the huge loss. With that, Bidinger doubled to around 120,000. Roche was left with 23,000.
flop was checked to Erica Schoenberg who bet 2,000. Cedric Muller raised to 5,500. The other limpers folded and Schoenberg reraised all-in to cover Muller's remaining 20,000.The Frenchman folded putting Schoenberg up to about 40,000.

Danzer:
Board:
The laughing shortie busted out with good grace, and Danzer edged up to 33,000.
They saw a
flop and Weisner thought about it for a long time before betting out 2,575. Bergeron looked like he'd gone to sleep, but after some time his eyes flicked up to peer at Weisner, and raised to 5,500. Weisner promptly three-bet another 10,000 or so, and Bergeron gave it up.Bergeron - down to 20,500
Weisner - up to 58,000
However, he is now officially on the respirator after losing most of his stack in a huge pot.
Gardner bet 12,000 on the river of a

. One gentleman bet out 1,300, and de Korver made it 4,100. Everyone else got out of their way while the bettor made it 11,000. De Korver went all in and the other gent called, holding pocket sevens for a set.We don't know whether de Korver's flush ever came in, as the
on the turn gave his opponent a full house to render the point moot. Thus de Korver is bust, and we will definitely be crowning a new champion this year.
Flop:
Maceiras bet out 2,500 and Button Gent called. They saw a turn.
Turn:
This time Maceiras checked, and Button Gent bet 5,000. Maceiras thought about it for a while, placed her last yellow 5,000-denomination chip on top of the rest of her stack, and after a little while she called, leaving herself 11,500 back. So, to the river.
River:
Maceiras checked again, and this time Button Gent bet 15,000 to put her in. She dwelled up for a long time, and eventually folded. Yikes.
