It was a small pot for Mike Watson but they all count.
He was in the big blind and defended a mid position raise from Ioakim Papadopoulos. The flop fell 
and Watsom check-called a 3,800 c-bet. The 
turn and river were checked down and Papadopoulos opened 
. Watson tabled 
and dragged in the pot.
Moments later we saw Matt Waxman get up from his table and leave the room. The man himself explains:
Reigning EPT Prague Champion Martin Finger has slipped to less than half the average stack after a clash with El Khazen Youssef did not go to plan.
The board read 
and Finger had bet 11,000 from the big blind seat and saw his bet raised all-in for 31,700 in total by Youssef, whi was seated three to Finger's left.
Finger went into the tank for over two minutes before reluctantly folding his hand. The young German has a workable stack but he will need to add to it sooner rather than later if he wants another deep run in the Czech Republic.
Level 11
: 600/1,200, 200 ante
It's a late rush for Jason Mercier to make his fifth million-dollar year. He just needs to get heads-up here in Prague. Only 300-odd players to beat. SHould be a shoe-in. Click on through to the PokerStars Blog.
"Seat open, Table 5," we heard a dealer shout from along the wall. We made out way over just in time to discover Jack Salter had been eliminated at the hands of Michael Gross.
We're not sure when the money went in, but Salter held 
on a board reading 
while Gross had 
for a Broadway straight. Salter proceeded to walk around the table to shake hands with his vanquisher. "Good luck," he said before taking his leave.
Level 11
: 600/1,200, 200 ante
It is a record breaking EPT here in Prague and the richest tournament in the history of the Czech Republic.
Samuli Johannes Sipila opened to 2,500 from middle position, and the action folded to Marc-Andre Ladouceur, who defended his big blind. The flop fell 
, and both players checked.
The turn was the 
, Ladouceur led out for 3,400, and Sipila called.
The river was the 
, and Laduceur led out again - this time for 10,500. Sipila instantly called, and Ladouceur tabled 
for king-high.
Sipila flipped over for a pair of jacks, and won the pot.
The board was 
, and there was about 50,000 in the pot. Ahmed Debabeche checked, and Alex Goulder moved all in for 30,200.
Debabeche sunk deep into the tank. He actually thought for so long that a player at the table called the clock. A floor person promptly arrived at the table, and gave Debabeche his one-minute warning. Around 50 seconds later, the Frenchman made the call.
Goulder turned over 
for a pair of queens, and Debabeche immediately mucked.
Mathew Frankland has just been eliminated; he got six big blinds into the middle holding 
and lost to 
. Frankland is apparently jumping straight into the €2k side event that is due to take place in around 25 minutes time.
