[Removed:72] Doubles Up

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Both Hanno Offen and [Removed:65] had their hole cards open in front of them with Offen having the bigger stack on the {8-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{10-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} board. Offen had {A-Clubs}{9-Hearts} for two pair, jacks and nines. But that wasn't enough for the {10-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} [Removed:72] had for the double up with the higher two pair, jacks and tens.

[Removed:72] Down and Up

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

- [Removed:65] raised to 3,600 from the cutoff and action folded to Sven Leu in the big blind who three-bet to 7,200. [Removed:72] looked at his cards again and then decided to call. The flop came [Js9hK] and now Leu bet 35,000. [Removed:72] looked a bit amazed and then started to smile. He had another look at his cards and then decided to fold.

- Aleksandar Tomovic raised to 2,700 from the under-the-gun position and now [Removed:72] was sitting in the middle position. He looked at his stack, put them all together and shoved. Action folded back to Tomovic who asked for a count. The dealer counted and confirmed that it was 26,100 in total. Tomovic glanced at his cards once more and then folded.

Big Stack Alert

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Andre Haneberg and Toni Vardjavand are the current big stacks while Gisle Olsen was eliminated. Next in the pecking order are Martin Wendt and Thang Duc Nguyen with near identical stacks.

Wendt was involved in a four-way pot to the {Q-Hearts}{J-Spades}{3-Spades} flop and faced the checks of Frederick Andersson in the small blind and Grzegorz Derkowski in the big blind. Wendt bet 8,000 from under the gun and Sebo Degermenci in the cutoff was the only caller. After the {10-Hearts} turn, the Dane made it 17,000 to go and that shut down all further action.

All You Can Bust

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 200 ante
Peter jaksland
Peter jaksland

The field has been reduced to just 38 hopefuls and among those to bust recently were Mick Heder, Peter Jaksland, Adnan Dizdarevic, Hamza Miri and Söhnke Jahn.

Miri ended up second-best with ace-king against the ace-jack of Thang Duc Nguyen while Jahn shoved for his last 19,400 from the cutpff. [Removed:179] reluctantly called out of the big blind and the cards were tabled.

Söhnke Jahn: {K-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}
[Removed:179]: {A-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}

The board of {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}{6-Spades} failed to improve Jahn and he also joined the rail.

Chrstian Freimuller raised to 4,000 and Hanno Offen called in the small blind, Erkan Sonmez in the big blind then three-bet to 15,500. Freimuller moved all in and Offen quickly folded. Sonmez asked for a count and reluctantly folded once it was deemed to be for 40,900.

Nguyen Thriving

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 200 ante
Thang Duc Nguyen
Thang Duc Nguyen

Thanat Chinphanitkit eventually lost the battle with his short stack while Hamza Miri confirmed the elimination of Saulius Veckys. The Lithuanian min-raised to 2,400 from under the gun and picked up several callers including Thang Duc Nguyen. On a {Q-}{6-}{2-} flop, only Nguyen called the continuation bet before snap-calling the shove of the Lithuanian on a {6-} turn with pocket queens.

Veckys had aces and failed to spike his two outer.

Nguyen soon after moved all in on the {Q-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} flop to force out Adnan Dizdarevic and Miri joked "flush draw or queens again?" Nguyen didn't show his cards this time.
