Theo Jorgensen has taken another big hit and is now down to just 11,200.
We caught the action on the turn, the board reading 
. Jorgensen bet out 5,000 - around a third of his stack - but was met with a raise to 25,000 from his opponent, effectively setting him in. Jorgensen tanked for some minutes, huffing and puffing and rubbing his temples, and announced something which was either in Danish or in English so heavily accented that it was impenetrable to our delicate ears, although it made some people at the rail laugh. He eventually folded 
face up and is among our shorter stacks right now.
We have just announced two more $15,000 Sunday Million Freerolls with PokerStars, with $1,000 to the winner and 260 tournament tickets, including 45 Sunday Million Tickets on offer.
Haykel Cherif Vidal wins one of what will become more and more common as the day draws to a close: short stack all-in pre races. His 
held vs. 
on a 
board to get him back in the game with over 20,000.
Meanwhile at about the same time, another, shorter stack decided not to take the plunge, despite needing to more than triple up to hit the average chips. Ciaran Burke in the big blind saw a limped threeway flop of 
and checked it. The first, early position limper bet 2,100 and cleared the other opposition, but Burke made the call. On the 
turn Burke checked, and after counting it out, his opponent bet 6,425 - exactly what Burke had left. He thought for a while, but whatever he'd called with on the flop, he was not prepared to put his tournament life at risk with it.
Simon Persson is rebuilding his stack after that earlier kings vs aces setback. He check-called bets of 1,200 and 2,100 on the flop and turn of a 
board against Lasse Aastrup before both checked the 
river. Aastrup forced to show a missed 
and Persson took the pot with 
Level: 6
Blinds: 200/400
Ante: 50
Surinder Sunar is probably as "old school" as they come in this year's EPT, he opened preflop to 900 and then checked back a flop of against Peter Eastgate. The former Main Event champion making his poker comeback here then fired out 1,300 on the turn and Sunar folded 
face up.
Eastgate is still one of the shorter stacks with about 14,000.
We found Annette Obrestad (button) and Anton Wigg (utg+1) looking down at a 
flop. The air crackled with tension as these two titans of Scandinavian poker eyed each other up. After a moment Wigg bet out 1,175. Obrestad made the call.
Before the turn card had been dealt Wigg politely yet ominously asked, "How much are you playing?" Answer - 20,000 or so. But the media's excitement would be short-lived, as in the event Wigg checked the 
turn and then promptly folded to a 3,000 bet from Obrestad.
Current standings - Obrestad up a shade to 25,000, Wigg down a whisker to around 70,000.
We heard the whooping and hollering, and scuttled over to find the cards on their backs, the board dealt and the double up being shipped over to Tom Bedell. We suspect that the chips went in on the flop.
Bedell: 
Morten Mortensen: 
Board: 
Yup, that's right - Mortensen's aces full was no good, as Bedell had made quads by the end of the hand and he doubled up to 45,000. Former chip leader Mortensen is still not in bad shape at all, but at 46,000 is way down from his earlier high point of almost 70,000.
