A King Wins the Hand for Bevand
Level 2
: 75/150, 0 ante
Gianni Bonetto raised from early position making it 350 to play and only Manuel Bevand called in mid position. The flop was 
and Bonetti c-bet 525 and Bevand called. When the turn hit the felt it was the 
and Bonetti fired his second barrel for 625 and Bevand snap-called. The river was the 
and Bonetti bet for the third time and again Bevand snap-called. The bet was 1,025 and the pot went to Bevand.

Selbst Hits the Ground Running
Level 2
: 75/150, 0 ante
Vanessa Selbst has never been identified as a slow, grindy sort of player. She just likes to play fast, very fast.
In what looked to be a 3-bet pot, she fired out 2,200 on a flop of 
against Luca Ascani, the latter making the call. The 
came on the turn and Selbst now fired 4,600 and Ascani gave up in the face of the double NAPT winner's aggression.
Yunis Forces Demidov to Think
Level 2
: 75/150, 0 ante
Ivan Demidov raised to 400 from the cut-off and Nicolas Yunis three-bet from the small blind. The bet was 1,250 and Demidov didn't waste much time when he made the call. The flop was 
and Yunis checked to Demidov and he decided to take a stab at the pot with a 2,800 bet and Yunis made the call. In pretty standard form in these tournaments they both checked the 
turn before we saw the 
river. This time the roles were switched and Yunis bet 6,500. Demidov went deep into thought for quite a long time before finally releasing his hand.
Chip and a Chair
Level 2
: 75/150, 0 ante
Not only did Dennis Bejedal lose with kings to Ted Forrest's aces, he's now just put his knee entirely through his chair when he attempted to kneel on it.
"Don't bother bringing another one," the Swede said glumly, "I'll be gone soon." He has about 6,000 remaining.
It's An Easy Game (Part 2)
Level 2
: 75/150, 0 ante
Table 26 is one of the best tables for the male media types to hang out because we have Evelyn Ng and Team Pokerstars Pro Sandra Naujoks sat right beside each other. For once though all eyes were off the two roses and instead were staring at a board full of chips.
Thomas Swensen had all of his dough in the middle holding 
and Silo Schifalacqua's number was the only thing left in his seat next to the busted 
.
Board: 
Swensen has over 60,000 in chips.

Board:

€5,000 Doesn't Go Far These Days
Level 2
: 75/150, 0 ante
By the by, we saw a flurry of exits early in the day. Just 15 minutes or so into play we lost Liya Gerasimova. We didn't quite catch the action, but we got there in time to see Gerasimova getting up and leaving, looking rather unwell. Yavor Ninov was holding aces and the board looked raggy; we discovered afterwards that Gerasimova had been holding 
.
Elsewhere, we've already lost Team PokerStars Pro Leo Fernandez.
