Level 4
: 150/300, 50 ante
The field is on their second 20-minute break of the day.
Level 4
: 150/300, 50 ante
After an early open from Andreas Hoivold and one call, Thomas Muehloecker committed to the pot for an unknown amount from the button as he had a T5,000 chip out. The small blind made it 8,150 to go, chasing away the first two players to voluntarily come in, and action was back on Muehloecker. He tanked a bit and then decided to fold.
The dealer shipped him 2,300, indicating he had three-bet to 2,700, and Muehloecker stacked his remaining chips, which looked to be just under 15,000.

Monaco resident Patrik Antonius may not have been active much at the poker tables in recent times, it doesn't mean the Finnish superstar rode off into the sunset to leave it all behind. PokerNews interviewed Antonius earlier this week to catch up with the Fin and talk about his plans to bring poker to Monaco.
Not long after Antonius sat down, he was put to the test by Viliyan Petleshkov. The Bulgarian had opened from the button and Antonius had defended his big blind. On a 
flop, Antonius checked, Petleshkov bet 1,200, Antonius check-raised to 5,200 and Petleshkov called.
The turn brought the 
and Antonius bet 7,200, which Petleshkov smooth-called in position. On the 
river, Antonius checked and Petleshkov went all in. It was effectively 12,000 to call for Antonius, who slid his stack in after a minute of thought.
Petleshkov tabled 
for a busted flush draw and Antonius showed 
for a busted flush draw as well, accompanied by a pair of fives. Sharp call by the Fin, who netted a quick double-up.

Ludovic Geilich bet 3,500 into a pot of about 4,300 when an opponent under the gun checked to him on

Level 4
: 150/300, 50 ante
Nicholas Galtos was facing a bet of 11,700 from the player under the gun and on his right, with a completed board of 
between them. When we returned to the table a few minutes later, he was still tanking. Eventually, someone called a clock.
"Bluffing me?" Galtos asked with a smile. "Should I call?"
With less than 30 seconds left on the countdown, Galtos splashed in a call.
"Wow," his opponent said. "Good call."
After being shown 
, Galtos turned over and took the pot with trips.
"Good bluff," he said to his opponent. "I fold a lot of hands there."
