Level 7 : 250/500, 50 ante
Lex Veldhuis
Lex Veldhuis

Just after the break, Lex Veldhuis was standing in the tournament area and chatted with a friend without any hassle to get back to his seat. Apparently, the Dutchman lost a flip with ace-queen and Pierre Calamusa looked him up with pocket jacks to win the flip. The table of Calamusa broke shortly after.

One table over, Thomas Butzhammer was all in for only 3,425 with {Q-Spades}{Q-Hearts} and doubled against the {Q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} of an opponent with the board running out {10-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{8-Spades}{9-Diamonds}.

Diaz Escapes

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

On the {Q-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{2-Clubs} flop, Guillaume Diaz moved all in and table neighbor Kitty Kuo asked for a count. The towers of small chips equated to 5,100 more to call and Kuo then glanced over. "I really like you, but ... ". Kuo then spotted the blogger on the rail and immediately asked to look away.

Without the blogger, the Taiwanese player "would have called" but instead mucked to not get any bad words with her poker coach. Diaz survived, but still has lots of work ahead.
