Overnight chip leader fallen on hard times Sander Berndsen made a bit of a recovery, but is now back down under 100,000 after betting on the river of a 
board. Ben Wilinofsky, who had initially checked the river from the small blind position, check-raised him to 25,000 and after a short, unhappy period in the tank, Berndsen folded.
Wilinofsky is up to around 190,000.
Marcin Horecki is out after he squeezed with 
against a couple of limpers for his final 20,000. The first folded but the second took an almightly long time to call with 
.
Horecki apparently flopped "a billion outs" but none of them hit and now the Polish pro is looking for a train back home, but not before he has a shave. "My wife will kill me if I come home with a beard!"
Kevin Vandersmissen is up to 127,000 after he eliminated Gert Roland Zumkehr after an all-in preflop battle, the 
against Zumkehr's 
for a circa 50,000 pot.
The board came a Belgian friendly 
and the EPT Snowfest runner-up is sitting with quite a decent stack at this point here.
Dermot Blain (who had run deep at San Remo last year) had raised preflop and been called by the blinds Nedzib Suman and Jens Thorson (who'd also gone deep in San Remo).
The flop came 
and it was checked to Irishman Blain who bet 6,000. Suman made the call and Thorson folded before the turn.
Suman checked again and Blain bet 9,600 this time but suddenly and almost a little unexpectedly, Suman check-raised to 26,000 total. Blain did not instantly fold to this bet either and counted down his stack before making the call.
The river was the 
and any hope of more action was quickly extinguished when Suman checked back to the Irishman - who checked behind. Suman flipped 
for the turned flush and Blain simply said, "Flush? Flush is good."
Suman added another 40,000 or so to his stack as Blain dropped a substantial amount.
Start of day chip leader Sander Berndsen has taken a hammering today, dropping to 77,000 which is only around average. Meanwhile the TV table is off limits until the break, but Roberto Romanello was facing the right way for a quick count.
