Marton Czuzcor raised to 16,000 from the small blind and Phil Hellmuth moved al-in from the big blind. Czuzcor decided to bide his time and made the fold.
Adrien Allain raised to 13,000 and Kasey Castle moved all-in prompting a fold from Allain.
Anton Wigg was one of the players we looked out for at the beginning of the day, but within hands after David Benyamine busted we also lost the EPT Copenhagen winner.
Wigg raised pre flop to 12,000 and he got three-bet to 35,000 by Roy Finlay who has been on a roll lately. The action got back to Wigg who thought about it for a while and than shoved for his remaining 270.000 chips. "I call," Finlay said with confidence and that was not what Wigg was hoping for.

The board ran out 
giving Finlay a set and the knock-out. Wigg left the room in style wishing the rest of the players good luck before he went to collect his money. "Within 40 minutes I went from short stack to chip leader," Finlay laughed. The Brit is having a great time here at the tables but he's still trailing Humbert, who can see his opponents coming closer.
After being crippled by Alexander Salabaschew, David Benyamine moved his last 41,000 into the middle and he received a caller in the shape of Roy Finlay.

The flop was kind to Benyamine as it dropped down 
but the turn put the ball back into the Finlay park and it stayed there. Turn: 
and River: 
.
Finlay, who qualified for this event through a £220 satellite now has 250,000.
David Benyamine opened with a 18,000 raise in the hijack and Alexander Salabaschew moved all-in from the small blind. Benyamine had his opponent covered and he made the call.

Robert Finlay raised to 18,000 in the hijack and Anton Wigg three-bet to 46,000 in the big blind. The action folded around to Finlay who moved all-in and Wigg snap-folded.
He started the day second in chips but only 20 minutes into the day he has dropped below average. We caught the action on the turn between Krakow and Hellmuth when the following happened.
The board read 
when Hellmuth bet 38,000 from the big blind. Krakow tanked for a bit before calling from the under the gun position. The river was the and both players checked. "Nine," Hellmuth said after which Krakow turned over to scoop the pot.
Krakow is climbing while Hellmuth has dropped to the middle of the pack.
Alexander Salabaschew won the first pot that went to a flop, and then Anton Wigg three-bet out of the blinds forcing David Benyamine to fold his button raise. We then had our first significant pot.
Guillaume Humbert raised to 15,000 on the button and Alexander Salabaschew defended his big blind. The flop was 
and Salabaschew grabbed the betting initiative with a 22,000 flick of the wrist and Humbert made the call. The turn of 
was checked through before the dealer gave us the final card of 
. Salabaschew checked and Humbert bet 32,000 and Salabaschew called.
Humbert dragged the pot down when he showed 
and Salabaschew mucked his cards unsay.
Phil Hellmuth decided to raise to 18,000 in one of the first hands of the day. The action got folded to Adrien Allain who shoved for his remaining 123,000 chips and Hellmuth shouted, "Call!" right away.
