"Do you want Some Chocolate?"

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante

Eoin O'Shea open-shoved for 9,575 chips from early position and the action folded around to chip leader Kamran Aliyev in the small blind. The player from Azerbaijan asked for an exact count and then made the call before flipping over {A-Clubs}{K-Spades}. O'Shea was at risk with {4-Spades}{4-Hearts} and Aliyev wished his opponent food luck.

That was not needed anymore after a flop of {6-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{4-Clubs} and O'Shea's double was officially confirmed when the {J-Hearts} turn and {10-Clubs} river completed the board. Aliyev then grabbed his chocolate bar and asked his opponent "do you want some chocolate?" but O'Shea grabbed the chips instead.

Vogelsang Doubles Through Boatman

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante

Barny Boatman just flopped the world with {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs} against Christoph Vogelsang with the German check-calling on the {A-}{9-Clubs}{2-Clubs} flop and the {2-} turn before facing the shove on the {3-} river. Ultimately, Vogelsang said "I can beat ace-king, so I guess I have to call" and did so with ace-three to help himself back up to starting stack.

Eminoglu vs Neuville

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante

On a heads-up flop of {7-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{6-Spades}, Yucel Eminoglu checked and Pierre Neuville bet 2,600. Eminoglu complained that the Belgian took his sunglasses on and off, but with a big smile on his face. Anthony Zinno could not help but grin, too, and just like that Neuville then put the sunglasses on again when the {Q-Hearts} appeared on the turn.

Eminoglu checked, Neuville bet 4,500 and received a "that's a pretty good bet" from his opponent. Eminoglu folded and added a "you played this hand good," ensuring smiles on the table. Neuville took off his sunglasses and just smirked back.

Trouble Time for Staszko

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante

Julien Martini and Martin Staszko have one thing in common: They had more chips previously. While Martini had doubled up with pocket tens by cracking pocket aces, Staszko was just trying the same against the jacks of the Frenchman. However, the board blanked out and Martini doubled back to starting stack, Staszko is down to 14 big blinds.

Gordillo Cracks All Four Aces

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante

After one limp for 500, Francisco Gordillo pushed forward his stack without noticing that Ian Hunter was still to act. The Spaniard quickly apologized and then Hunter verified with the dealer that he was just calling a limp for 500. Then, Gordillo moved all in for 24,000 and the player behind him tank-folded.

The initial limper called all in for 17,000 with the {A-Clubs}{A-Diamonds} and Hunter snap-called with his {A-Spades}{A-Hearts} as well. Gordillo was praying for a king with his {K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts} and got his wish granted on the board {K-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{2-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}, jumping out of his chair in celebration.

Herold Busts in a Flip

Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante

Kyle Frey opened to 1,200 and was called by one player before Kai Herold shoved his last 11,125 out of the blinds. Frey called with only a few chips behind and the third player in the hand folded.

Herold: {J-Clubs}{10-Spades}
Frey: {6-Diamonds}{6-Spades}

The board ran out {9-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{5-Diamonds} and that was it for the German. Soon after, Keith Johnson arrived at the table and Charlie Carrel joked over to the fellow Brit "every single tourney, eh?" They had been playing on the final table of the 25k High Roller earlier today already.
