Dag Gone!

Dag Palovic
Dag Palovic
After two uncalled all-ins by Markus and Kristian it was Dag Palovic's turn to stick all his chips in the middle. Kristian Kjondal had raised to 60,000 from UTG+1 and Dag moved all in for 284,000 more from the big blind.

Kristian called and tabled {A-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} against Dag's {A-Clubs}{10-Clubs} and the board brought no surprises to send Dag Palovic home. Palovic is eliminated in seventh place, winning €93,600.

Lauttamus Doubles up Again

This time chip leader Arnuad Mattern was the unfortunate victim in a race situation.

Mattern raised to 62,000 from the button and Lauttamus moved all-in for 455,000. Mattern calls.

{K-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts} for Lauttamus
{10-Spades}{10-Hearts} for Mattern

The flop came {9-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}, giving the Finn fifteen outs.
Turn {K-Clubs}, meaning Mattern could only win with a non-diamond Queen to make a straight on the river but it was the {3-Spades}.

Lauttamus now has close to one million chips and has done considerable damage to the Frenchman, who still has the chip lead.

Card Rush for Juha!

Juha Lauttamus just had a nice couple of hands. In the first he moved all in on Dag Palovic's big blind and all folded, he showed {A-Spades}{A-Hearts}.

The next hand he does it again but Dag calls from the small blind.

Juha {A-Spades}{K-Hearts}
Dag {A-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}

Board {J-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{K-Clubs}{3-Spades} and Juha doubles up to 504,000 with trip kings.

Palovic Given Serious Warning

Dag Palovic

Gino Alacqua opened the betting to 75,000 from the cut-off seat and it was folded to Dag Palovic in the big blind.

Palovic and Gino then put on a show where the Slovakian mimics the Italian's every action.

When Alacqua motions for Palovic to move all in, Palovic continues to mimic him and makes a forward motion with his hands over his chips.

Although it was obvious his intention was not to make a bet. Lee Jones gives him a very stern warning. "You've got to be careful or all your chips will be in the middle."

Palovic apologizes and then mucks his hand.

Gino Takes One Down...

Nedzib Suman raises to 70,000 UTG and Gino makes it 210,000 total from the small blind. Nedzib calls after a short dwell and the flop is dealt {7-Spades}{K-Clubs}{K-Hearts}. Gino moves all in for 365,000 and Nedzib folds after another short dwell up.
