I believe there was a bet of 2-3,000 from Kenny Hallaert and a call from John Duthie on a flop. The turn went check, check, only for Hallaert to lead out for 6,200 on the 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 .
"But how many did you have?" asked Duthie with a smirk. Haellert simply returned the smile.
Marcel Luske
Currently playing on the Luskebox is "In the Middle of the Night". Stay tuned for future news regarding the dulcet tones of the Flying Dutchman.
Kristian Svensson bet 4,000 on the river of a 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.
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.

River: a largely irrelevant
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.
Johan Percivall
Johan Percivall has just doubled up with versus the of Wolfgang van Breukelen. I didn't see when the chips went in, but the board read .
Percivall now has 35,000, while Breukelen has dropped down to 11,000.
