Sarah Herring talks to Alex Fitzgerald about his life in the battle rap scene.
Three players built a huge pot at one of the tables on the stage, with the final community reading 
and over 40,000 in the pot. Small blind Carlo Savinelli put his last 17,200 in, and the player in the big blind took about a minute before opting to call. The third player folded what she said was a set of jacks, and Savinelli softly announced "nuts" as he tabled 
. The big blind moved to muck and the dealer flipped over 
for top set.

We mentioned earlier about two brothers from France both in today's Day 1b field. However, the family affair is no more as just one brother remains.
Florian Decamps' stack dwindled down to 5,500 before he finally got it all in preflop with pocket nines. However, he hit the exits after he was outmatched by his opponent's pocket kings and failed to improve with the board.
Florian's brother Derek Decamps is in better shape with his stack on a different table rising to 42,000.

EPT Prague is not only the last EPT in history but also the 10 year anniversary of the event. It is only fitting that history is set. The big board is now showing 861 entrants for Day 1b. Combined with the 246 players from Day 1a, the field size has tied the EPT Prague Main Event record of 1,107 players.
Tournament organizers shared that there are at least a couple of dozen online qualifiers yet to take the seat. So now it isn't just about whether a new EPT Prague Main record will be set, but by how much it will be shattered.

Nandor Solyom was facing a ticking clock with his stack possibly on the line when we got to his table. A tournament official was counting down his final seconds of a one-minute timer with the board reading 
. Solyom's opponent on the button had put him to the test with an overbet shove of about 18,000. Solyom tossed in a call just as his hand was almost declared dead, and his opponent showed 
for a whiffed straight. Solyom had 
for a boat.

Lots of banter in a hand preflop with William Kassouf involved. Things began with Kassouf's opponent raising to 550. Kassouf opted to make a small three-bet to 1,125 and shared, "I am not bluffing. I have a bigger pair." The banter between his opponent went back and forth with both speculating on what each other had before Kassouf's opponent raised the action to 3,350. A discussion between the two continued with Kassouf's opponent offering to show one card if Kassouf folded before adding that it had to be a preflop fold.
Kassouf called the bet before the flop and called another bet of 2,500 on the 
flop, but not before more discussions took place between the two players. Kassouf's opponent reminded him that he wouldn't show cards anymore for a fold while they both continued to speculate what each other were holding.
The 
appeared on the turn. A player not involved in the hand called the clock after about 30 seconds. A floor person came over to the table 15-20 seconds later, but no action was taken since not enough time passed relating to this specific action despite some of the other actions taking a bit of time. Kassouf's opponent then fired out for 9,000. Kassouf asked how much the bet was and grinned and said, "Nine high like a boss," before tossing his hand into the muck.
Kassouf, has been hovering most of the early part of the day around the opening stack of 30,000 in chips had around 28,500 after the hand.
