Another 15 minutes of rest time, then back to the busting. It's going full speed ahead today, and the start of day stacks are bearing little relation to them now! Full counts shortly.
Level 18
: 4,000/8,000, 500 ante
Domantas Klimciauskas bet what looked like 60,000 on the turn of an 
board, only to face a raise to 120,000 from online qualifier Simon Higgins. After a little pause, Klimciauskas called.
They saw a 
river and this time Klimciauskas checked. Higgins bet another 120,000, driving Klimciauskas into the tank for some time. When he emerged it was to fold, dropping to a still very respectable 730,000 in the process. Higgins showed him 
. He is now up to 1.6 million.

Tim Finne has been eliminated in an all-in preflop confrontation, unavoidable with his short stack and

at a prime moment to take another scalp, and take it he did as the board came down

Litterio Pirrotta got his whole 210,000 stack in preflop with

Board: 
Pirrotta doubled to 430,000; Weinman looked down sadly at his remaining 135,000. "When I came here I had six," he lamented.

Allen Bari has been eliminated, in dramatic fashion. The hand which did the real damage, leaving him with just a big blind or two at the end, started with button Eugene Yanayt raising 
and ended with Bari getting him all in holding 
.
The flop (and this is a sick one): 
! The turn and river came 
and Bari muttered disconsolately to his fortunate neighbour. I only caught the phrases, "Spew off loads of chips," and "Get rewarded."
When his 
fell to the next hand, he stood up and asked the way to the cash desk, in a tone which a non-player might have implied the catastrophic destruction of all his worldly possessions rather than that he'd just cashed for €25,000 in a poker tournament.

Andre Alcaria moved all in for 140,500 preflop over the top of Kjartan Berger Jonsson's preflop raise and the Icelandic player made the call.

I've covered maybe forty EPT's since it's inception but I have to say there are few odder sights in the poker world than Lucien Cohen when the cameras are on him. He had check-raised all in on a flop of against Alex Gomes and Hugo Lemaire and stood up stroking his fake rat with a maniacal look on his face, occasionally talking to said rat.
Gomes eventually folded and Lemaire (over whose bet Cohen had shoved) quickly called with 
, Cohen, who won EPT Deauville carrying what we would expect was the same rat, triumphantly turned over and doubled up after a turn and river.
