Dinner Break for the Second Half of the Field

Level 6 : 400/800, 100 ante

On the {A-Spades}{Q-Spades}{7-Diamonds} flop, Chris Dowling checked in under the gun and called a bet of 8,500 by Apostol Beg in the cutoff. The {K-Hearts} turn went check, check, and Dowling then bet 10,000 on the {4-Diamonds} river. Beg was deep in the think tank and minutes into the 15-minute break for the tables 1-11, the clock was called on him.

Beg was given 30 seconds to act and he called during that time frame to see Dowling roll over {A-Clubs}{6-Clubs}, Beg had {A-Hearts}{5-Hearts} and they chopped it up before heading into their 75-minute dinner break. In the meanwhile, Scott "Sco" McMillan and Sophia "Djarii" White had walked over to the table to talk with Unibet Poker ambassador Ian Simpson, and they will return to action soon after finishing their own dinner break already.

"I wonder how you do it, Richie"

Level 6 : 400/800, 100 ante

Three-ways to the {K-Spades}{Q-Spades}{Q-Clubs}{5-Clubs} turn, Peter Curry checked in the small blind and Pierre de Montesquiou in the big blind made it 7,800 to go. Richard O'Neill called in the hijack and Curry also stuck around. The {10-Hearts} on the river was then checked to O'Neill and he bet 10,000, Curry shrugged and called, and de Montesquiou tossed in a single chip for the call, too.

O'Neill rolled over {Q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} for the full house, de Montesquiou mucked {Q-Hearts}{J-Spades} in disgust and Curry flashed {K-Hearts}{J-Hearts}.

"I wonder how you do it, Richie," another player at the table remarked, and O'Neill replied towards Curry and de Montesquiou with "you owed me a few chips anyways" as he dragged in the healthy pot.

Sverkholt Busts to de Montesquiou

Level 6 : 400/800, 100 ante

The turn showed {J-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{5-Spades}{10-Hearts} and Pierre de Montesquiou made it 7,500 to go. Only Erik Sverkholt remained in the hand and opted to move all in for 31,400 in total, sending the Frenchman deep into the think tank. Eventually, de Montesquiou called and he was very happy to see Sverkholt turn over {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} for a pair and straight draw.

De Montesquiou held {K-Hearts}{K-Clubs} for the overpair and immediately said "come onnn", then had reason to celebrate as the blank {5-Diamonds} river brought no upset.

Curry Joins the Big Stacks

Level 6 : 400/800, 100 ante

Throughout the last few levels, Peter Curry had consistently added chips to his stack without any big drama and he just chipped up further after claiming a nice pot off Richard O'Neill. On the river of a board {K-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{7-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}, Curry made it 10,000 to go by tossing in two red chips and O'Neill gave it some thought before making the call.

Curry showed the {K-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} for top pair and that was enough to jump above six figures.

Charmpilas Chips Up

Level 6 : 400/800, 100 ante

Before his table went into the dinner break, a lengthy hand broke out between Periklis Charmpilas and Padraig O'Neill with bets of 3,6000 and 5,500 already pulled in. The completed board showed {A-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{J-Clubs} and Charmpilas now made it expensive, tossing in a bet of 15,300.

O'Neill gave it more than two minutes into the dinner break and the clock was called on him, but before tournament director Kenny Hallaert had arrived, O'Neill had already called and mucked as soon as Charmpilas flashed {K-Hearts}{Q-Spades} for the nut straight.
