Arne Langset played a decent-sized pot as if he were on the last seconds of his timebank, picking up 16,500 from Alexander Petersen in the process. Langset three-bet Petersen from the small blind (making it 6,500) and was called.
The flop came down and immediately 10,000 was out in front of Langset. Petersen made the call. On the turn, Langset announced, "All in," and his 80k more than covered Petersen (with 36k). Petersen shook his head and passed with a bit of an eye-roll.
Kristoffer Thorson looks to have been crippled by Johan van Til. The dealer was mucking the board but we distincly saw the Dutchman's having connected rather well with a X board but the Finn's cards were already in the muck and he was left with a forlorn looking 5,500.
Ignat Liviu George opened to 2,500 preflop and Koen Schiepers flat-called from late position. Michael Tureniec then 3-bet the button to 6,300 before Marc Gork 4-bet to 15,000 in the small blind.
George tanked for several minutes to the point that Peter Eastgate called the clock, but the Romanian then folded. Schiepers quickly folded too and Tureniec set Gork all-in quickly and got an equally fast call.

The board came and Tureniec's stack has grown in stature.
What are the chances? Two days in a row three female players have been sat on the same starting table. Considering the low turnout of women playing this event (they make up less than 3% of the field) that is rather unexpected. Today Camilla Reventlow, Eva Toft and Tina Beyer Christensen are competing over the felt, the latter two somewhat short stacked.
Michael Birt is one of level one's early casualties. Returning today with around the starting stack of 30,000, he was unlucky to run a good hand into a superb one preflop. He'd raised to 2,500 and picked up Luca Falaschi as a caller, before big blind Niclas Hall moved all-in. Birt thought for a while and made the call with . When Falaschi passed Hall showed which promptly hit a third king on the flop - he's now up to 80,000.
The full complement of players has returned to the felt eager to get back to the game. Some are more antsy than others, though - several smaller stacks have already taken their shots at doubling through in the first two hands of the day. Success all round, it appears.
First up was Dwayne Stacey, British PokerStars qualifier, who took his up against . He had to wait all the way to the river: ... to receive his double up to 70,000 which he took silently with no display of emotion.
Contrast and compare, if you will, Andre Petrovic whose very short stack found its way in with also vs. . His board came out a flushy ...... which brought forth a shout of, "BOYA! BRAVO!" That represents more display of emotion than we've seen for nearly two days.
Welcome back to Day of EPT Copenhagen brought to you direct from the chilly Danish capital. Lithuanian Domantas Klimciauskas (203,800) leads the field ahead of PokerStars online qualifier Michael Aron (191,000) with 262 players remaining from the initial 449.
Today the levels are upped to 75 minutes but we are not completely sure if they will play down to the money today or stop somewhere in the region of 90 players. Several PokerStars Team Pros are still involved including JP Kelly, Arnaud Mattern, John Duthie and Toni Judet - all looking to become a DKK millionaire.
Of course this wouldn't be a Scandinavian EPT without some big hitters having accumulated stacks for today, Ramzi Jelassi and Annette Obrestad appear to be leading this charge, both start with six figures while the blinds will only begin at 500/1,000/100.
