It has been a nightmare for David Peters, as he busted twice in the first three levels to run out of chances for damage control in the event. It was Stephen Chidwick that got him both times and the Brit has built his stack up to more than 4.9 million already.

Jason Koon was the first casualty of the day and bought back in, as did Jean-Noel Thorel. Orpen Kisacikoglu and Stefan Schillhabel also ran out of chips, the latter falling into the trap of Leon Tsoukernik. Koon's raise from under the gun was just called by Tsoukernik on the button and Schillhabel came along out of the small blind. Schillhabel flopped the nut flush draw with {A-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds} but couldn't crack the {A-Hearts}{A-Spades} of Tsoukernik, who jumped to 1.8 million.

Daniel Dvoress avoided the trip to the cashier for the single re-entry in this event after he got it in with the dominated {10-Hearts}{9-Spades} on a flop of {9-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{2-Hearts}. Justin Bonomo check-raised out of the big blind and called his jam with {Q-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}, but running hearts improved Dvoress to a flush.

As usual, the atmosphere can be quite tense in these events. Along with the friendly banter from time to time, everyone get's super serious as soon as they get actively involved in a hand. With the late registration open until the end of level eight, the tournament is on track to double it's initial guarantee of €2,000,000. So far there are 31 entries with 25 players remaining.
