Minor Hit for Duthie

I believe there was a bet of 2-3,000 from Kenny Hallaert and a call from John Duthie on a {J-Spades}{6-Hearts}{3-Clubs} flop. The {3-Spades} turn went check, check, only for Hallaert to lead out for 6,200 on the {5-Diamonds} river. Whilst Hallaer adopted a statuesque position, Duthie mulled over his deicison for what seemed like an age, before eventually folding and being shown a {J-Hearts}.

"But how many did you have?" asked Duthie with a smirk. Haellert simply returned the smile.

The PokerStars man now has 34,500.

Trip Tens All Round

Kristian Svensson bet 4,000 on the river of a {6-Spades} {10-Spades} {10-Hearts} {9-Diamonds} {J-Hearts} board, and said, "Wow," when Jan Hlobil raised to 14,000. He thought about it for a while and looked rather uncomfortable, but eventually called all in -- and everything was going to be OK.

Svensson: {A-Clubs} {10-Diamonds}
Hlobil: {A-Hearts} {10-Clubs}

Chop, chop.

Oh Noah! Boeken Busts

Boeken's blue
Boeken's blue
A massive three-way all in confrontation has deprived us of the company of both Noah Boeken and Wojciech Kaminski for the rest of the tournament, and has propelled Runnar Lindepuu up into the rarefied cool air of the big stacks.

The details of who got their chips in first are hazy, but come the turn all three were on their backs like so:

Board: {6-Spades} {6-Hearts} {A-Diamonds} {K-Clubs}

Kaminski: {A-Clubs} {8-Diamonds}
Boeken: {6-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds}
Lindepuu: {K-Hearts} {6-Clubs}

River: a largely irrelevant {8-Spades}

Boeken left pretty much as soon as he'd seen Lindepuu's hand, but Kaminski sat there for a while until the TD asked him to leave so a new player could sit in his seat.

Lindepuu is up to around 47,000.
