You sit and wait patiently for premium hand, finally get the very best in succession and end up on the precipice of a tournament exit. That is exactly what has just happened to poor old Anders Andersen.
Firstly, Andersen picks up pocket aces and makes a standard raise, only for everyone to fold. Then he picks up pocket kings and ends up all-in, pre flop, against the pocket aces of Henrik Sorensen. The kings lost and Andersen was left with 33,000. Andersen looked devastated while everyone around him thought it was the funniest thing they had ever seen.

I will three-bet you with impunity and when you call I will have the nuts!
Halldor Sverisson raised to 3,000 in early position, and then for what seemed like the umpteenth time, Simon Ravnsbaek three-bet to 6,300. Sverisson must have thought, "I have him this time," before moving all-in for 45,000 more and Ravnsbaek nearly beat him into the pot.

The board ran out and Ravnsbaek is up to a tournament all time high of 220,000
We joined the action on a flop where Ondrej Vinklarek had checked from the big blind to Ashley mason three seats to his left. Mason stared at his opponent for a few moments before checking behind.
The dealer put the out on the turn, Vinklarek bet 2,700 and Mason called. The river was the and now Vinklarek increased his bet size to 5,200 which was too much for Mason to pay.
Whilst typing up other hands we receive the ID card for Mason from the tournament director which means only one thing, he has busted out. He had 108,000 chips at the end of the last hand so someone has been given a real gift.
From late position Jesper Rytgaard opened to 2,600 and found callers in the shape of Chi Hung Shek, Melanie Weisner (small blind) and Mario Puccini (big blind). The flop came down and the action folded to Rytgaard who bet 6,700, a bet that only Shek called.
The turn was the and both players decided to check, which is exactly what they did when the landed on the river.
Spencer Hudson is one of a handful of American competitors at the PokerStars EPT Copenhagen Main Event and he will be here a little longer after helping himself to another pot to keep his stack topped up.
He opened to 3,500 from under the gun and when Marius Pospiech three-bet to 7,500 to his left, Hudson moved all in. Pospiech sat upright before mucking his hand.
Former Liverpool and Denmark footballer Jan molby gets the betting round started with a raise to 4,000 from middle position. His large raise pushed out most of his opponents but Alexander Manson fancied a shot at his fellow countryman and he called from the button.
Flop: - Molby checked to his lone opponent who bet 3,500. Molby sat completely motionless before springing into action and check-raising Mason to 8,000 in total, a tad on the small side some may argue. Mason agreed and called.
Turn: - Molby instantly checked to Mason and Mason took that as a sign to bet 12,000. Molby folded 30 seconds later and Mason let him choose a card. Molby chose the right hand card, which was the which caused a smile from Molby and after a friendly exchange in Danish Mason shrugged and went a little shade of red.
Martin El-Kher, and Sonny Viberg both got smacked in the face by the flop in a four-way pot and it was the former who was happiest at the end.
Linus Dahlström opened to 3,900 and he was called by Spencer Hudson along with the aforementioned players.
The flop came and the action was checked to El-Kher in the cut-off who bet 10,000. Viberg was in the next seat and put in a raise to 23,000. Dahlström studied the stacks of his opponents and thought about making a move. He folded, as did Hudson, but El-Kher moved all-in for another 28,500 more.
Viberg called with for top pair with a flush draw. El-Kher opened for two-pair and faded spades and aces on the turn and river.
