Team PokerStars Pro JP Kelly is down to 37,000 after trying, and failing, to get Mark Pukhov off a hand.
The Brit three-bet preflop and led the flop. Pukhov called both times before leading on the turn. Kelly called and then took over the initiative on the river with a bet. The Russian procrastinated before he called.
The final board read 
and Kelly tabled 
. Pukhov opened 
to a few raised eyebrows. That won't bother him as he's up to 80,000.

: 150/300, 25 ante
Salman Behbehani has been asking questions about being able to play in tonight's €1,000 bounty tournament but he is still in the Main Event and has just shipped another pot.
Last year's EPT Tallinn winner Kevin Stani started things off with a raise from early position to 600. The player next to act folded but Behbehani called, as did John Eames on the button and David Foldy in the big blind. The dealer put the first three community cards out onto the table, 
and each of the players checked one after another.
The turn was the 
and Foldy checked, as did Stani but Behbehani fired a bet of 1,200. This bet folded out each of Behbhani's three opponents and he picked up the pot.

: 150/300, 25 ante
Peter "Rush" Roche
Peter Roche is just like Alex Wice when it comes to the speed of his decision making process. It seems that every single motion at the poker table is done in a hurry, as this next hand demonstrates perfectly.
Jesus Cortes Lizano raised to 650 from middle position and Roche three-bet to 2,000 and Lizano made the call. The board eventually ran out 
with Lizano check-calling two streets of super quick betting by Roche. The first bet on the flop was for 2,400 followed up by a 4,000 turn bet. By the time Roche had flicked in his river bet of 7,000 even Lizano had caught the bug folding faster that the 1965 Origami Champion of the World.
Roche ~ 33,000
Lizano ~ 32,000

: 150/300, 25 ante
Annette Obrestad was up past 65,000 at one point in this tournament but has faltered slightly of late and was sat with 46,000 (still more than 150 big blinds) but now she is back to doing what she does best, hoovering up chips.
She opened the betting with a 600 raise, a raise that Jeff Sarwer in the small blind and Eugen Wagner called in the big blind. The flop came down 
and all three players checked. The turn was the 
and Sarwer must have had enough of checking because he lead out with a bet of 1,600, Wagner called but Obrestad came over the top of them both and set the price to play at 6,000. Neither Sarwer nor Wagner was prepared to pay the extra chips and they folded.
Obrestad back to 56,000
Level 5
: 150/300, 25 ante
- Jeff Sarwer getting the better of Annette Obrestad again. He called her UTG raise when sat on the button and raised her off an
flop. "I should've guessed that flop hit you", she chuckled. - "Seat open, table ten", shouted a dealer. A quick glance over that direction saw Per Linde getting up from his seat and leaving.
- A short-stacked (6k) Michael Tureniec getting a much needed walk in the big blind. He has a fearsome reputation for preflop aggression so probably not best to raise him light when he only has 20 big blinds.
Here is a round up of a lot of those little plastic things.

: 150/300, 25 ante
Just minutes after chopping up a pot Sebastien Ruthenberg and Cristiano Blanco clashed again but this time there was no split pot, Blanco won the lot.
The chips went in preflop with Ruthenberg holding 
and Blanco 
. The board ran out queen-high and the Team PokerStars Pro was eliminated from this European Poker Tour Main Event.
Level 5
: 150/300, 25 ante
Johan van Til has just clashed with Iceland's Runar Runarsson over on Table 8 but the Dutchman released his hand on the turn.
Van Til raised to 625 from the cutoff and only Runarsson, on the button, made the call. The 
flop was met with a 1,400 continuation bet from van Til, a raise to 3,000 from Runarsson and finally a call from van Til. The turn brought the into play and now the man known as "Busto Soon" checked. Runarsson quickly bet 5,025 and van Til folded 
face up.
