We're four levels deep into this Day 2, and the players are taking their final break of the day. We'll be back in 15 minutes with one more level to conclude play.
Mark Jansen started this level with just 12,000. In little under an hour, he's turned it into 161,000 after picking up aces several times and kings as well.
He had got into a raising war against PokerStars Team Pro Nacho Barbero, three-betting to 9,800 only for Barbero to make it 18,000 to go. Jansen flat-called to see a flop and check-called a bet of 14,000 as the players went to the turn. Jansen checked and Barbero set him in, the Dutch player snap-called.
Craig Hopkins and Domink Nitsche have both busted this level.
Hopkins, who said after that he was waiting an hour to see a picture card, shoved for his last 9,000 with and was called by Joao Ribeiro in the big blind with . The board ran out .
A short while after news reached us that Nitsche four-bet all-in with ace-queen. The three-bettor had ace-king and that was that for the young German.
First in from the hijack, Dermot Blain came in with a raise to 3,500, and David Vamplew flatted one seat over. In the big blind, Rebecca Gerin studied the table for a moment before sticking in a three-bet to 11,600. That folded Blain without incident, but Vamplew was going nowhere. After just a minute or so, he announced a shove for 47,500 total. That sent Gerin deep into the tank, and it seemed that she was legitimately considering a tough decision with the potential to knock out a dangerous player -slash- former EPT champion. Gerin had about 145,000 left in front of her, but she eventually decided a fold was the right move.
