flop which Vilmunen bet out at for 3,200, only to be raised by button Sorel Mizzi to 8,200 (effectively putting him all in).He didn't think overly long before actually setting himself in for a negligible amount more - Mizzi called but looked rather disappointed that his draw (
) was in poor shape against Vilmunen's 
. The turn and river bricked, and Vilmunen nearly has his starting stack again. Meanwhile Mizzi is now the one who's going to have to worry about getting a double up sometime in the next two levels.
He stared at the 6,600 in front of his young opponent and after about a minute made the call.
The flop came down
and nothing happened for a while. Then Lichtenberger bet out 5,700. More nothing - in fact it looked like they were playing that 'sleeping lions' thing you do at preschool where you have to hold as still as possible or you're out.Eventually Binger moved - enough to make the flop call. On the
turn, there was another pause-bet combo from Lichtenberger - this time 9,100 - enough to pretty much put Binger to the test for the lot. He thought about it with a bit more emotion this time, even a little shaking of the head before he laid his hand down.

It's now up to 88,000 and it's shadow is cast over, for example, Nik Persaud's 31,600 or Antonio Esfandiari's 15,300 or Brandon Adams' 12,500. The quiet Frenchman is definitely one to watch in this tournament, despite being relatively new on the poker circuit.

"Stuck, tired, and he has a cold, tough..." sympathised Terrence Chan. I think.
