Post Missing

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

The seat of Zeus-Jan Post is vacated and the Dutchman nowhere to be found anymore.

The last table in the secondary tournament area is currently also breaking with all but three players heading to their new home.

Wheeler Check-Raises the Flop

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

Juha Helppi had raised to 850 from under the gun and Jason Wheeler called, heading to a heads-up flop of {2-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}. Wheeler checked, Helppi continued for 1,125 and then quickly folded as Wheeler had check-raised to 3,300. The American expat, fully focused on his game, showed no reaction at all when collecting the chips and appeared completely in the zone.

His stack is not in the profit zone just yet though, but another double would send him there.

Beltz Thriving Further

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

Ruben Visser just "got owned" by Artan Dedusha with Vladimir Stepanian also in the hand and dropped down to half the starting stack while a couple other well known pros are also well below the 30,000 chips, too. Wouter Beltz is the complete opposite on more than three times of what everyone initially received.

Montury Starts Building a Tower of Chips

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

Jean Montury opened the action from early position and Vlado Banicevic defended his big blind. On the {A-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{2-Spades}{10-Clubs} turn, Banicevic check-called a bet of 1,300 and then led the {A-Spades} river for 2,700. Banicevic immediately gave up and tossed his cards into the muck to award the pot to the Frenchman, who also raised the next hand from under the gun.

Farid Chati called from the button and then folded to a continuation bet on the {3-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}{5-Spades} flop. "Nice hand?" he asked and the Frenchman just grinned back.

Various Counts

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

Milne Missing ... Not

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

The seat next to Morten Mortensen was empty but Richard Milne didn't bust, the Scotsman just got moved tables. One thing has however disappeared, which Milne confirmed not long ago. His beloved lucky charm, that he brought to every poker tournament, is nowhere to be found anymore and the unique piece may forever be lost.

News from the Outer Table

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

On the three-way turn with the board reading {K-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{J-Spades}{3-Diamonds}, Faraz Jaka bet 1,400 from the big blind and Kevin Killeen called from one seat over. Govert Metaal folded and the duo continued with the {9-Spades} on the river. Jaka bet 3,000 with about the same amount of chips behind.

Killeen gave it some thought and then called to receive an instant muck of the American.

Jaka three-bet jammed the next hand and was called by the initial raiser with {K-Hearts}{J-Spades}. Jaka's {9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} held up on a board of {6-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{A-Hearts}{7-Spades} and he won't have to purchase another bullet just yet.

Dedusha Doubles Through Fergiatakis

Level 5 : 150/300, 25 ante

After a preflop squeeze to 2,025 and three callers, Artan Dedusha bet the {3-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} flop for 3,250 from the under-the-gun position and was called only by Bart Fergiatakis. Dedusha then bet the {5-Hearts} turn as well and called all in for his last 18,900 when Fergiatakis had shoved.

Fergiatakis: {9-Spades}{9-Hearts}
Dedusha: {J-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}

The {Q-Spades} on the river was a blank and the Brit doubled, sending Fergiatakis back to starting stack.

Kovtunov Busts; Reenters

Level 5 : 150/300, 25 ante

Jasper Meijer van Putten got there with the {J-Spades}{10-Spades} against the pocket queens including {Q-Spades} of Vlado Banicevic and doubled up his stack while Gleb Kovtunov tried the same hazard shortly after. The Ukrainian three-bet to 2,000 and then four-bet jammed into a reraise by Clyde Tjauw Foe to take a flip with {Q-}{Q-} versus {A-}{K-}.

The Dutchman improved and Kovtunov had to purchase a second entry, getting him a seat to the right of current chip leader Piet Bakker. The latter spiked middle set against the top pair of Giorgio La Iacona and no miracle appeared anymore on turn nor river.
