Peeters Also Sent to the Rail

Milko van Winden

Level 14 : 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Sem Peeters was seen walking around in the tournament area and he didn't look like he had any chips left. Peeters got his money in the middle with pocket jacks on a six-five-three board with two diamonds. His opponent was playing king-jack of diamonds but it was not a diamond that sent Peeters home.

The turn was a king and the river didn't help Peeters to the victory.

Updated Chip Counts

Milko van Winden

Level 15 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Day 1B chip leader Soufiane Gherbi seems to have had a great start of the day as he already has well over 600,000 in chips. Others that are doing well include Kalidou Sow and Morten 'Zeeth' Ottosen.

Nadia Wanzi and Moise Alloun are having a bit more trouble with running up a stack today.

Community member Jack Ivermee busted out of the tournament and there are only a couple community members left in the field that has already dropped down to 213 players.

Nicolas Laselva could very well be the chip leader of the tournament right now. He already doubled up his stack and is getting closer to the one million chip mark.

Player	Chips	Progress
Nicolas Laselva	815,000 446,500	446,500

No Cash for Wesley Nobels

Milko van Winden

Level 15 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Wesley Nobels was down to 63,000 and he played multiple hands that eventually concluded in him busting out of the tournament. First he jammed with pocket deuces without getting a call and his now slightly bigger stack was pushed to the middle again the very next hand with pocket eights from the cutoff.

He was called this time by the player on the button with ace-ten and there was a ten on the flop right away. He was left with just 23,000 after the hand and he lost those chips with ace-deuce.
