Then I Saw His Ace, Now I'm a Believer

Level 13 : 1,200/2,400, 200 ante

So Johnny Lodden didn't say, letting his chips do the walking as Michael Tureniec took a large pot. Tureniec raised preflop under the gun (5,500) and picked up only Lodden on the button for the {A-Hearts}{4-Spades}{4-Clubs} flop. Tureniec bet out 7,800 - call. The turn brought the {8-Hearts} and a lead of 14,600 - again Lodden called. The river was the {Q-Hearts} and now Tureniec bet out 32,400. This bet took only slightly longer for Lodden to call, but he mucked when Tureniec showed {A-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}.

Johnny Does Not Call Lightly

Level 13 : 1,200/2,400, 200 ante
Johnny Jensen
Johnny Jensen

Johnny Jensen has taken several hits, and is now down to 237,000 - still above average, but nowhere near the chip lead.

A little while ago he managed to double up Tome Moreira, his {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds} no good against Moreira's {7-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} when the board came down {7-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{q-Spades}{k-Clubs}.

And just now, we found him looking down at a {10-Clubs}{j-Spades}{5-Hearts}{q-Hearts} board with Simon Hanninger betting out 42,500 into a roughly 80,000 pot. Jensen gave it some good thought, but eventually folded and is out of the upper echelons of the chip counts.

Eastgate Eliminated

Level 13 : 1,200/2,400, 200 ante
Peter Eastgate
Peter Eastgate

With a flop of {8-Hearts} {2-Hearts} {5-Clubs} Peter Eastgate check-raised Michael Aron's 8,000 bet to 27,700 only for the PokerStars qualifier to click it back to 50,000. Eastgate pushed all-in, a quick call followed.

Eastgate: {Q-Spades} {Q-Diamonds}
Aron: {5-Diamonds} {5-Hearts}

The {3-Clubs} turn and {J-Spades} river changed nothing and the former World Champion was gone. Aron now up to 270,000

Second Pint of Vilk

Level 13 : 1,200/2,400, 200 ante

Zoran Mitic just got knocked out by Juha Vilkki, {K-Hearts} {K-Spades} for the former were no good against Vilkki's {A-Diamonds} {Q-Diamonds} after the board came {8-Spades} {J-Diamonds} {K-Diamonds} {4-Hearts} {2-Diamonds}. Vilkki has now got 180,000

Lakhitov Looks Up Schafer

Level 13 : 1,200/2,400, 200 ante

Thorsten Shafer is doing rather well now, and just hoovered in an extra 30,000 from from Mikhail Lakhitov with a raise on the river. He either check-raised the {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{K-Clubs} river or three-bet the in-position Lakhitov, but either way a long think resulted in the latter's call of around 40,000 (his last bet had been 18,200). Schafer confidently revealed {6-Hearts}{6-Clubs} for the full house and continues his ascent.

Juha Out-ammus

Level 13 : 1,200/2,400, 200 ante
Juha Lauttamus, yesterday
Juha Lauttamus, yesterday

Thorsten Schafer opened to 5,200 and got one caller before Juha Lauttamus pushed all in. Schafer made a speedy call, as you do with pocket aces, the other gent got out of their way, and it was a swift and clinical end for Lauttamus.

Lauttamus: {a-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}
Schafer: {a-Clubs}{a-Spades}

Board: {q-Spades}{6-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{9-Clubs}

Schafer is up to around 200,000.

Living It Lars

Level 13 : 1,200/2,400, 200 ante

Lars "Brother of Jesper" Hougaard has almost doubled up, in the process knocking out a gentleman we believe was online qualifier Kristian Moller.

Moller: {a-Spades}{4-Spades}
Hougaard: {8-Clubs}{8-Hearts}

Board: {7-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}

Hougaard looked incredibly relieved, and is up to around 100,000, still well below average.
