There has been a fair bit of banter on the Chris Moorman/James Dempsey table but it's gotten a bit quieter with the elimination of the latter.
In the previous hand, Barny Boatman had limped from UTG+1 and Chris Moorman had isolated him with a raise only for everyone to fold, including Boatman. Dempsey had apparently jokingly pointed out that all you needed to do was reraise Moorman to win the hand.
Fate was then sealed in the next hand, Boatman limped UTG and Team PokerStars Pro Toni Judet made it 1,100 to go. Ramil Yusopov then three-bet to 2,900 in the next seat down before EPT Vienna champion Michael Eiler made it 6,800 with a cold four-bet. Dempsey then moved all-in for about 25,000, Boatman folded (later claiming ace-king), as did Judet and Yusopov (one of whom said they had queens).
Eiler snap-called with aces against Dempsey's ace-queen suited and the board bricked out for the Englishman who also admitted he hadn't been playing well today. Eiler meanwhile is over the 80,000 mark.

turn when the Englishman made a straight. Yusopov heading to the rail on the

Sergiy Baranov, who we believe took care of Konstantin Puchkov and his 60k stack to claim the chip lead, was involved in a six-way that he lost. He didn't lose the chip lead in the process though.
Alex Bilokur opened to 700 and picked up five callers en route to a 
flop. The Russian continued for 1,050 and got folds until the action reached Mihails Morozovs in the small blind and he raised to 2,700. Sergiy Baranov was in the big blind and called, as did Bilokur.
The turn came 
and Morozovs led for 5,200, only called by Baranov. The river fell 
and both players checked.

Zimnan Ziyard helped maintain the UK's EPT record of having a champion in each of the eight seasons when he took down EPT Loutraki less than six months ago. He's doing well here despite a medium sized loss in a pot where he seemed to find the fold button difficult to press. .
He was under the gun and up against Efren Garcia Louzao in late position. They'd made it to the turn with 5,800 in the pot with a 
board on show. Louzao bet 3,625 when the action was checked to him. Call.
The final card came and Ziyard check-tank-folded to a 4,500 bet.

Before the flop, Zimnan Ziyard opened to 1,000, and Martins Adeniya flatted a couple seats over. Off they went to the 
flop, and Ziyard continued out with another 1,200. Adeniya bumped it up to 3,700, and Ziyard put in the call.
The turn came the 
, and Adeniya slid out another bet of 7,250. Ziyard made the call once again. The last card off was the 
, and now Ziyard led out into the pot with 8,000 of his own chips. Adeniya was having none of it, though, raising all in with his covering stack.
Ziyard had about 33,000 left in front of him at this point, and he needed some time in the tank. It would be a couple minutes of staring before his finally piped up, "You don't have ace-ten, do you?" After another moment, he added, "Ace-ten or nothing... Which is it?" And after another moment, something like: 'I'm thinking about calling with a six.'
Adeniya had been sitting like a statue, but he relaxed for a moment to take a sip of his water and shoot a quick glance across the table. "Come on, give me something," Ziyard prodded, trying desperately to find a read. After maybe four or five minutes, he said, "All right, I call." As soon as the words were out of his mouth, the 
appeared in front of Adeniya's stack, and Ziyard could only shake his head. He went with the wrong read, and the call has cost him the rest of his stack and this chance at another EPT title. To add to the rub, all-in hands have to be shown, and Ziyard was forced to roll over his 
before heading for the door.
Adeniya has made one EPT final table (this season in London), and he's already looking good here in Madrid. That knockout moves him all the way up to 129,000 and into the chip lead.

With a raise to 800 and a flat-call in front of him, Luis Rufas squeezed his last ~16,000 into the middle. A couple seats over, another gentleman re-shoved with the covering stack, and Rufas' was in trouble against his opponent's
The board ran out blanks, coming
