Charles La Boissonnire open shoved his 240,000-chip stack and Alexandre Meylan looked him up with heaps more.

Clarke Value Bets Second Pair

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

From the hijack position, Patrick Clarke raised it up to 26,000. Mikhail Petrov in the big blind made the call and the two took a flop of {K-Spades}{Q-Spades}{8-Diamonds}. Petrov check called a bet of 31,000 and both players checked the {3-Clubs} on the turn.

The {8-Clubs} on the river made Petrov check again. Clarke bet 55,000 and after some tanking, Petrov called. Clarke showed {J-Spades}{Q-Clubs} and Petrov mucked.

"Did you try to get me of the chop?" Petrov asked.

"Thought you might call with ace-high" Clarke answered while stacking his newfound chips.

Urbanovich Doubles With Aces

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Action folded to Rhys Jones in the small blind and he limped in. In the big blind, Dzmitry Urbanovich raised to 33,000.

Jones thought about it for a bit before putting in a stack of 25,000-chips worth 400,000 or so. Urbanovich announced all in and it was time to put the cards on their backs.

Rhys Jones: {K-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}
Dzmitry Urbanovich: {A-Spades}{A-Clubs}

The board ran out {Q-Spades}{J-Spades}{4-Hearts}{7-Spades}{8-Hearts} and Urbanovich doubled up.

The 27 players left in the EPT12 Main Event are off on a 20-minute break.

Malone Busted

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Stephen Malone changed rather quickly from calling for a ten and no jack, to praying for a jack and no ten, after he got it in with the {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} versus Iliodoros Kamatakis's {j-Diamonds}{j-Hearts} and the board rolled out {7-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{k-Clubs} to the turn.

Unfortunately for him, the {7-Clubs} river was no help and he busted 28th.

Sidhu Knocks Out Wigg and Michalak on the Feature Table

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
Anton Wigg
Anton Wigg

Anton Wigg with the {A-Hearts}{J-Clubs} and Kuljinder Sidhu with the {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} got it in before the flop on the feature table. The {A-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} flop was good for Wigg, but the {7-Clubs} on the turn meant it was all over already for the former EPT Copenhagen champion. The {Q-Clubs} on the river didn't change a thing and Wigg made his exit.

Not much later, Kuljinder Sidhu was right back at it. From first position he raised to 24,000 and Jakub Michalak in the hijack three-bet to 54,000. Sidhu maden the call and both players checked on {9-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}. Sidhu then bet 64,000 on the {7-Hearts} turn and Michalak made the call.

Michalak had 189,000 left by the time the {3-Hearts} completed the board and that was exactly what he had to wager if he wanted to call, as Sidhu moved all in. Michalak thought about it for a fair bit before he called it off with the {K-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}. Sidhu showed {A-Diamonds}{10-Spades} and took out his second player in a matter of minutes.
