Small Pots After Early Fireworks

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

There haven't been any noteworthy pots during the last blind level. The only female to enter the tournament Christina Orfanidou
is in jeopardy as her stack has dwindled down to about 10 big blinds.

She was just involved in a hand with Spyridon Michailidis where both players had ace-four. Orfanidou jammed for about six big blinds on an ace high flop and got a call. It was a chopped pot right away but a couple of players at the table got a small laugh after a four came on the turn to give both players two pair.

Orfanidou will be interviewed by Sarah Herring on the break.

Chalkiadakis Out with Aces

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Andreas Chalkiadakis
Andreas Chalkiadakis

Rough beat for Andreas Chalkiadakis. He got it all in for about 50 big blinds with {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs} against Panagiotis Panagiotidis with {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}.

The {4-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} flop was safe for Chalkiadakis as was the {7-Spades} on the turn. Chalkiadakis yelled out a big scream of pain as his opponent hit a full house when the {k-Clubs} spiked the river and immediately ran out of the poker room.

The remaining 20 players are now each guaranteed a payout of €1,170.

Rosen Simeonov bet 22,000 into a pot of around 38,000 with the {10-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} on the board. Hristo Bogdanov jammed for 93,000.

Simeonov asked for a chip count and then quickly called. Both players had top pair but Bogdanov had a better kicker with {k-Clubs}{10-Spades} to his opponent's {q-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}.

The {j-Spades} completed the board on the river and Bogdanov found a double.

"English!"

Vasileios Gkogkas

Vasileios Gkogkas and Rosen Simeonov were asked by the dealer about 40 minutes ago to speak in English.

Gkogkas, who was being very vocal on Day 1b, is having fun with it.

"English!" or "Speak English!" Gkogkas keeps yelling every couple of minutes whether it is about action on his table or another.

A couple of the players are having fun back including Andreas Chalkidakis at another table shouting "English!" back at Gkogkas.
