For most of today, every single table that wasn't in use either for cash or for the Single Day event has been full for the Main Event. However, after working their way through an alternate list, tournament officials have just started breaking tables.
Among the recent eliminations were Marvin Dupre and Irishman Andy Black, although Black has since re-entered.

Van Wesemael's Winning Irks Tablemates
Level 8
: 350/700, 700 ante
We've previously mentioned in our coverage that several players come to the Winamax Poker Open Dublin from all around Europe to sample the atmosphere. As a result, it might come as a surprise that not everyone in the Main Event is French.
"I'm not sure if the people at my table like me anymore," said Sander van Wesemael with a grin. The Dutchman sits on around 65,000 in chips.
"I was just winning every pot. Then I lost a big one and it was alright, and then I started winning again. So it's mostly because I'm winning."
Van Wesemael has never cashed a Winamax event and as he folded his next hand some players started talking again.
"It's ok though," he said. "Sometimes I get the dealer to translate for me!"
