Vadim Nearly Gets Clubbed To Death

Chips went a-flying into the pot on a {7-Clubs} {3-Spades} {5-Clubs} flop between Nathanael Filskov and Vadim Markushevski. Filskov calling all-in eventually with {A-Clubs} {J-Clubs} against the Belarussian's {8-Spades} {8-Hearts}, the turn {10-Clubs} ridding the hand of any sense of tension and the {K-Clubs} river.

Filskov jumped up to 260,000 while Markushevski dropped to 65,000.

Dmitry Bayramov has been knocked out.

Brought to His Neess

Matvey Linov, who as we mentioned earlier hasn't had a great day, just now experienced a change in fortune.

He was holding a rather uninspiring {a-Spades}{3-Diamonds} and was up against the all-in Danny Neess' {j-Hearts}{j-Spades} when the board rolled out a rather surprising {8-Spades}{3-Hearts}{3-Spades}{9-Spades}{8-Clubs}. The luckless Neess hit the rail just before the end of play, and Linov upped his stack to what looked like roughly 300,000.

End Of Day 2

Jonathan Weekes - Chip Daddy
Jonathan Weekes - Chip Daddy

After two long gruelling Day 1's, Day 2 with it's 75 minute levels has proved much shorter. Englishman Jonathan Weekes has propelled himself up the board to an astonishing 751,900 which has put him head and shoulders above the other 83 players that will go into Day 3 of this tournament.

The key hand for Weekes that put his ascent into overdrive is without a shadow of a doubt, the {Q-} {Q-} where his 5-bet all-in put Luca Pagano to the ultimate test and actually forced the Italian to pass Kings preflop in what would've been a 500,000+ pot.

Elsewhere Ivan Demidov's big win with a flush against Ville Wahlbeck's apparent straight has set the Russian in a real position to challenge for this event, while Team Pokerstars Pros Arnaud Mattern, Katja Thater and Vadim Markushevski have all made it through to Day 3.

Tomorrow the plan will be to play down to 24 players and with the bubble at 56, it could be a very interesting day. Full chip counts will follow shortly, we'll see you tomorrow at 12pm (GMT+2)
