2011 EPT Deauville
Philippe Massias has doubled up, his 
making a rather nice full house against Raphael Kroll's 
when the board ran out 



.
Massias is still pretty short on just 200,000 or so, though. Kroll looked rather displeased about it but is in no trouble on 1.1 million.
Andrzej Nowak-Rogozinski (the weary-fingered bloggers unkindly wonder how many points that name would score in Scrabble) opened for 37,000 under the gun and Kenny Hallaert called in mid position before Mesut Akbas shoved from the big blind. Nowak-Rogozinski called, Hallaert tanked up for a while but folded, and they were on their backs.
Nowak-Rogozinski: 

Akbas: 

Board: 




Akbas duly more than doubled up - he's at over 400,000 now. "Nice hand," admitted Nowak-Rogozinski as he dropped to around 800,000.
Both David Sonelin and William Johnson qualified for this event on Pokerstars.net and they have both come up against each other in a pre flop all-in.
Sonelin:

Johnson:

Board:

Sonelin is crippled with a stack of around 250,000 but Johnson now rises to contention with just under 1 million.
We reported earlier how Fabian Holling was having all of his own way on his table. Well eventually someone decided enough was enough and his name was Mathieu Biague. Biague moved all-in pre flop and Holling also moved all-in to ensure he was heads up.
Biague:

Holling:

The first card turned over was the
and Biague was probably thinking "why me?" The other cards did not help Biague as they fell down
and he was eliminated.
Just as the table began to believe Holling was invincible Kenny Hallaert moved onto his table and immediately eyed Hollings stack.
I could almost hear Holling say, "Come and have a go if you think your hard enough!"
Hallaert hadn't even taken his chips out of the rack before he was forcing Gregory Lhomer to fold with the first three bet the table had seen anyone make except Holling.
Watch this space!
Philippe Massias has been eliminated at the hands of Alex Wice.
We didn't see what happened but Wice was holding
for the straight and Massias was holding
and hoping for a miracle.
Board:

Nicolo Calia is the Keith Richards of poker, he will never die.
The Italian started with 7,000 (less than one big blind) today and now has 550,000.
He was 4-bet shoved on by Gregory Lhomer and quickly made the call with dem der bullets, showing
to Lhomer's cruelly coolered
. There looked to be a possible light at the end of the tunnel when the flop came
but it turned out only to be the Calia Express Train as the
turn and
river filled out the board.
Lhomer has been crippled to around 140,000 as a result.
Anthony Hnatow opened from the button and David Sonelin moved all-in from the big blind for a total of 201,000. Hnatow sighed and made the call with
displeased to see Sonelin's
.
The flop came
though and the crowd around the table groaned, the
turn suddenly gave Sonelin a huge number of outs, as any diamond, king, eight or nine would save the Swede. The river though was the
completing Hnatow's boat, but the day 2 chip leader is out.
Philip Jacobsen opened for 38,000 and Martin Jacobson in the big blind was the only caller.
Both players checked the 

flop but Jacobson bet out 38,000 on the
turn. Jacobsen (kind of confusing, we know, but stay with us) called that, and he called the roughly 130,000 bet from Jacobson on the
river as well, but mucked and shook his head when Jacobson turned over pocket sevens for a turned set.
Jacobson with an "o": 1.1 million
Jacobsen with an "e": 390,000
