Day 3 of the Season 9 European Poker Tour Berlin Main Event is set to start in 40 minutes or so, and leading the remaining 168 players is Finland's Aku Joentausta. Joentausta bagged an impressive 751,300-chip stack, and is followed by Anaras Alekberovas (529,800) and Ronny Voth (526,100).

Voth entered Day 2 as the overall chip leader.

Former German Open winners Davidi Kitai and Team Pro Sandra Naujoks are still alive and kicking here in Season 9. Kitai, who won last year, commands 282,100 chips, and Naujoks, who won in Season 5, is right behind Kitai with 190,800.

The red spade is still well represented by Team Pro's Jan Heitmann, Alex Kravchenko, Liv Boeree, and Theo Jorgensen, Team SportStar Boris Becker, and Team Online Member Mickey Petersen. The aforementioned Naujoks has all of her co-spade wearers out-chipped.

The cards will be in the air shortly, so make sure to stay tuned for all of your live updates.

What's the Plan, Stan?

MarcC

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante

Since you ask, it is to play five 90-minute levels with a break after every level. The first break will be 20 minutes to accommodate the colouring up of the T100 chips, and each break after that will be a 15-minute affair. No dinner break is scheduled so we should be finished not long after 8:30pm CET.

Nitsche Drags First Hand

Josh_Cahlik

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante

On the first hand of the day, Dominik Nitsche opened to 7,000 from middle position. Action trickled around the table to Marcin Wydrowski who cut out a three-bet to 17,000. Nitsche called.

The dealer fanned a flop of and Wydrowski came out swinging for 10,700. Nitsche would not be bullied, however, as he threw out a raise to 28,500. Wydrowski opted to stick around and the two saw the pair the board on the turn.

Wydrowski checked to the raiser and Nitsche checked it right back. The river was the and Wydrowski checked once more. Nitsche shot out 42,000 and Wydrowski tossed in a single chip, signifying a call.

"Queen," said Nitsche, rolling over .

Wydrowski mucked his hand and Nitsche scooped up the pot. Nitsche is off to a terrific start on the day, increasing his stack by almost 100,000 on the very first hand of the day. He's now sitting on 533,000 and is the second biggest stack in the room.

New Champion on the Horizon?

Happy_Freaked

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante

Defending champion Davidi Kitai just lost a huge three-way all in which knocked his stack down to 34 big blinds. That's still plenty to work with but the Belgian pro won't feel quite as comfortable after just minutes of play on Day 3.

The action started with Giuseppe Vassallo who moved all in for 42,000 from the button and Kitai, to his immediate left, made the call. Marco Leonzio was seated in the big blind and he decided to move all in over the top for 190,000 total. Kitai did not seem too happy as he pondered for a while before eventually making the call.

Giuseppe Vassallo:
Davidi Kitai:
Marco Leonzio:

The board ran out and Leonzio erupted in excitement as he jumped into the top 10.

Player	Chips	Progress
Marco Leonzio	420,000	224,300
Davidi Kitai	103,000	-179,100

Robin Rocked

MarcC

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante

Robin Ylitalo didn't hang around too long today after he busted to Sebastian Trisch.

The action folded around to the Swede in the cut-off and he raised to 6,200. Trisch was on the button and three-bet to 13,000. The blinds folded but Yiltalo was in no mood to be pushed around and four-bet all in for around 70,000. Call.
