Give it to Dunst

Level 6 : 300/600, 75 ante

A short stack was all in and at risk for 7,5000 chips from early position with {A-} {Q-} and Tony Dunst looked him up with pocket eights. The board stayed clear and Dunst is back above starting stack.

EPT Deauville finalist Matas Cimbolas got double the starting stack, he still isn't the chip leader right now though.

Dunst Back on Track

Level 5 : 200/400, 75 ante

Tony Dunst was all in for his last 5,800 chips and more than doubled thanks to dead money in the pot from other players as well. The American then three-bet a raise from 800 to 2,100 and got called by the initial raiser in the hijack seat. Dunst was in the cutoff and both players checked down a board of {7-Clubs} {2-Diamonds} {9-Clubs} {5-Spades} {J-Diamonds}.

The player in the hijack showed {A-Clubs} {Q-Diamonds} and Dunst had that beat with {A-Spades} {K-Spades} to scoop another pot.

Essa Busts Second Flight; Kara Runs Hot

Level 5 : 200/400, 75 ante

Laurence Essa just came over to the media area to ask about the biggest stacks after day 1b when finishing with the fourth highest stack of the night. He had just busted the second flight and was curios what a comfortable stack would be for day 2.

Aziz Kara was rather short after day 1b with only 15,000, but keeps knocking out short stacks left and right. He just called the all in of a short stack for 5,000 with {Q-Clubs} {10-Spades} and faced {K-Clubs} {4-Spades}. The flop was nine-high, but the {Q-Spades} turn scored the knockout.

177 Entries for the Second Flight

Level 5 : 200/400, 75 ante

The 177 entries are slightly less than yesterday's day 1b and around 200 players are needed to equal the number of entries of July 2014. After confirmation with the staff here, this is in fact the sixth edition of this tournament format and the fourth one that takes place at the Aspers Casino in London.

Level: 5

Blinds: 200/400

Ante: 75

Counts from First Break

Level 4 : 150/300, 50 ante

Sinem Melin won a small pot in the last hand of level four with {Q-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds} against the {Q-} {K-} of an opponent. Besides that, Aziz Kara is among the chip leaders after bagging up 15,000 last night.
