and both players checked. The turn was the
, Neuville bet 35,000, Ravn raised to 75,000 and Neuville folded.
Steve O'Dwyer raised from the big blind and Jacob Rasmussen made the call from the big blind. The flop came down 

and Rasmussen check-called a continuation bet from the American but it was a different story on the turn.
The
turn saw Rasmussen check again but when O'Dwyer bet 81,000 Rasmussen sprung to life and check-raised to 275,000 sending O'Dwyer deep into the tank. He stayed there for two minutes before he folded his holding, correctly or not we will never know.

EPT Copenhagen in down to a one table affair Lauri Varonen was unlucky to bust to Bjarke Hansen.
The Finnish player called all-in with 
after Hansen put him to the test with 
. The board ran 



to make the Dane two-pair and give him a two-million plus stack.
The players will be drawn onto one table table of nine and play until we lose one more player. We'll have that draw and the official counts after we come back from a short break.

Jacob Rasmussen has shown he is not afraid the three and four bet in these latter stages of the EPT Copenhagen Main Event and he has just done the latter against Steve O'Dwyer.
Rasmussen opened to 35,000 from under the gun and when the action folded to O'Dwyer in the small blind and he moved a tower of blue chips over the betting line, a bet of 100,000. Aage Ravn folded in the big blind but Rasmussen asked O'Dwyer if he had raised to 100,000 and the American simply nodded. Rasmussen went back to thinking about what his next move was before deciding a raise to 205,000 was the best option. It turned out he was correct because O'Dwyer folded.
Steve O'Dwyer raised to 33,000 on the button and Jacob Rasmussen defended the big blind. The action checked through to the river on a board of
and Rasmussen called a 38,000 O'Dwyer bet. The American turned over
and Rasmussen acknowledged that it was good before mucking his hand.

Jacob Rasmussen raised to 35,000 in first position, Steve O'Dwyer called in the small blind and Aage Ravn once more squeezed out a three-bet for 100,000 in the big blind. Rasmussen folded and O'Dwyer called in a repeat performance of a previous hand.
The flop was
and after O'Dwyer checked, Ravn immediately moved 200,000 into the middle of the felt. O'Dwyer must have knew it was coming and went into the tank and after about three or four minutes, O'Dwyer folded and Ravn dragged in yet another three-bet pot.

Niels van Alphen got off to a great start before his stack started to slide and he seemed to lose his "Mojo" according to the EPT Live Lite commentators. He may well have it back after he doubled through Team Online's Mickey Petersen.
All the chips went in pre flop and the cards were on their backs.

Aage Ravn open-limps from the small blind, something we have not seen him do so far in this tournament. Jacob Rasmussen is not going to let him see a flop on the cheap and he raises it up to 56,000 sending Ravn into the tank.
He stays there for a solid minute before taking his original bet back and four-betting to 130,000. Rasmussen, sat with his hands on his throat, almost like he is strangling himself, completely still. Eventually he moved and increased his bet to a total of 210,000! All this from a limped pot!
Ravn, currently being railed by Team PokerStars Pro Johnny Lodden, waited for 90 seconds, winced and then folded.
