Team PokerStars Pro Online Mickey Petersen has started to rebuild his stack after doubling up through Jacques Quaiss.
The young Dane had opened to 500 from early position and when the action folded around to Quaiss in the cutoff he stuck in a raise to 2,000. Petersen then paused for a short while before moving all in for what turned out to be 5,950 in total. Quaiss quickly called and the cards were flipped over.

Liv Boeree didn't look too happy after Jason Wheeler took her off a hand on the river of an board.
She defended her big blind and then check-raised to 2,100 after Wheeler had continued for 750. He called and she went on to bet 2,800 on the turn, and 4,600 on the river. The Team PokerStars Pro had 18,500 behind after her river bet but was unable to call when the American shoved on her.

Andre Vieira Andrade opened the betting with a raise to 450 from late position and found two callers in the shape of two talented individuals. First Yevgeniy Timoshenko called in the hijack and Athanasios Polychronopoulos came along for the ride from the big blind seat.
The dealer put out the flop and after Polychronopoulos checked, Andrade came out firing with a continuation bet of 675 and it was enough to get the job done because his two high profile opponents folded.
Chris Moorman and Adam Levy have been sharing a table here in Berlin. Who do they believe is the better player out of the two, the most attractive and how on earth they didn't realise "Isildur1" was at their table.
From UTG+1 Roman Romanovskyi opened the betting with a min-raise to 400 and then called as Yevgeniy Timoshenko three-bet to 1,100. The pair shared a flop reading .

The turn was the and Romanovskyi instantly checked again, then as he had done on the flop quickly called when Timoshenko fired a second barrel worth 2,800. The river was the and when Romanovskyi tapped the table checked Timoshenko checked behind.
