Level 19
: 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Freddy Deeb opened the action with a bet of 30,000. Praz Bansi pondered in the small blind but folded. Daniel Platten in the big blind moved all in. “How much is it?” Deeb asked, and having been told it was 100,000 more he called.
Deeb was ahead with 
while Platten held the 
The board ran out 
and Platten’s top pair gave him the pot and another life in his attempt to battle his way towards a €1,000,000 payday.
Level 19
: 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
And here we have a classic example of celebrating too early and why it can cost you.
The flop was reading 
and Tom Kugelstadt had moved all in over the top of Ken Broad's 60,000 bet. Broad had about 140,000 left and was deliberating.
"I don't think you've got anything...I've got something," he told Kugelstadt.
After taking several minutes to think, he apologised for taking so long to which Albert Sapiano replied with some slightly colourful language he'd prefer Broad hurry up as he [Sapiano] was in the big blind next.
Finally Broad made the call.
Broad: 
Kugelstadt: 
The turn came, the 
and suddenly Broad erupted, "YEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSS. WHO IS YOUR DADDY?" in a cry that reverberated around the Bobby Moore suite. In fact, he'd was so ecstatic he hadn't even noticed that although he'd made trips, Kugelstadt now had a gutshot straight flush draw and numerous outs.
The river was the 
and suddenly Broad's energetic shouting was cut to a halt as though someone had pressed the 'mute' button on a remote control. He looked more deflated than a punctured tyre.
Kugelstadt, for his part, was like an actor who had just missed his cue and a couple of moments after the stunned silence and realisation of what had happened, he let out a slightly quieter "Weeeeeeeee," comprised entirely of the sort of satisfaction that you only get when you hit your redraw after being sucked out on.
Someone came over to ask what had happened.
Sapiano replied, "The Daddy is dead."

One of the most intriguing battles is going to be that between Sam Trickett and Ole Schemion. Currently, it's all going the way of the German. There was already 260,000 in the middle with the board reading 
, Trickett fired 92,000 and Schemion called after some long thought.
Trickett flipped 
and Schemion showed 
to scoop the pot.

Level 18
: 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
Albert Sapiano opened under the gun for 25,000 and was raised by Matt Dale to 75,000. Tom Kugelstradt called from the big blind and Sapiano called as well to make it three players to the flop.
and Kugelstradt checked. Sapiano bet 75,000, the pre-flop aggressor Dale folded, but when it got back to Kugelstradt he moved all in.
Sapiano folded and Kugelstradt showed the table his pair of queens.
“Tricky spot to play these.” Said Kugelstradt
“Good flop for them though eh?” Replied Devilfish on the same table who had been keeping a keen eye on the action. There followed a good natured discussion on who would have done what with given stack sizes.
The only thing for sure though was that Kugelstradt’s queens were good and he took down a decent pot.
Level 18
: 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
Gwedoline Janot had four-bet all in over the top of a Florent Marques squeeze, only to be snap-called by her opponent.
Janot: 
Marques: 
The board came 
and both players made full houses but Marques' was the larger.

Najib Tahiri's tournament has come to an abrupt end at the hands of Jerome Brion.
Brion opened the betting preflop from early position and was called by Tahiri in the big blind. Tahiri then check-called a bet on the 
flop and then check-raised all in on the 
turn. Tahiri had made his move with 
and was crushed by the 
of Brion. The was not one of Tahiri's scarce outs and he headed for the exits.
Level 18
: 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
British Pro Julian Gardner has added to his stack after three-bet shoving on the loose-playing Andre Moreira.
The latter opened from middle position to 20,000 and Gardner moved all in for 200,000 from his seat in the cutoff. Moreira counted out how many chips he would had left if he called and lost, didn't like what he saw (around 30,000 chips) and mucked.
Gardner is a seasoned pro and is going to be a real nuisance to his opponents on Table 70.
Level 18
: 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
Stalwart of the UK poker scene, Mickey Wernick has increased his chip stack by eliminating the talented young Polish player Michal Polchlopek. Wernick had opened to 25,000 preflop and Polchlopek moved all in for about 180,000, Wernick called with 
and had the Pole's 
dominated.
Neither player hit and Wernick is much more comfortable as a result.
