The very tall Fabian Quoss was all in preflop with 
against a fellow German's 
after the latter got stubborn and attemped to push Quoss off the hand. The board came 
and Quoss doubled up to about 60,000.

Players are now on their final 15 minute break of Day 1a. Some stream outside and some into the casino half of the casino - where it must be said the dress code appears to be being upheld much more stringently.
We only caught the river action, but it was significant - Ben Wilinofsky moved all in for a roughly pot-sized 60,000 or so, the board reading 
. His opponent, who still had 100,000 behind, tanked for a while. He growled, then laughed, and after a little while he folded.
Wilinofsky didn't show his hand and is up to 120,000.
Angel Guillen is up to 85,000 after he held 
all in on the turn of a 
board against 
. The 
river changed nothing and the Mexican is looking very comfortable.
Tristan Clemencon has been knocked out after he was all in preflop with 
against 
but the board brought both an ace and a six and the Frenchman is pushing up the proverbial daisies. (Thanks to roving reporter Gloria Balding for this one!)
We found Terrence Chan pushing his stack across the line on a 
flop and turning over 
. His opponent flipped 
and the rest of the board was dealt, bringing Chan absolutely nothing.

While David Sonelin remains at the top of the chip counts, several big stacks have suffered serious reversals of fortune in Level 8 - may we point your attention in the direction of Rupert Elder and Toby Lewis, waving the UK flag now a little less vigorously. Also Erik Cajelais and Michael Tureniec have experienced the giddy heights of the chip lead at some point today but both are now under the average stack (50k or thereabouts).
That is not a typo for EPT fixture David Sonelin. He is huge chip leader.
Vanessa Selbst has been eliminated after she check-raised on a flop of 
and her opponent floated her with 
, backing into a diamond flush on the 
turn and 
, Selbst had 
and looked more than slightly annoyed by what had happened.
Anton Wigg very reasonably got the last of his chips in with on a 
flop but was up against the flopped flush holding of 
. The Swede gained a few extra outs on the 
turn but the river only improved him to a straight and he was sent to the rail.
