Meanwhile on the other table, I try to record every hand until something big happens.



First hand, Mohamad Kowssarie steals the blinds with a 27k raise.

Next, Nikolaus makes it 22k from EP, Voitto Rintala re-raises to about 80k and Nikolaus decides to muck.

Greg Dyer raises to 23k, Mohamad calls, and Kees Alblas moves all-in. Greg passes, Kees says, "You wanna dance?" Mohamad calls, both show A-J.

Phillip Yeh pushes from the small blind. Takes Blinds

"The price of poker is going up."

Blinds 5k/10k/1k

Tronde raises to 30k, Adam re-raises to 110k. Tronde fiddles with his chips for a long. He then moves all-in. Adam counts his stack in his usual slow methodic style. He lets out a sigh, and calls.

Tronde, "Good call."

Adam Junglen raises preflop to 27k, Mark Teltscher re-raises to 100k.  Another decision for Junglen, who's played a deliberate, patient game with no sign, however, of weakness.  Teltscher wasn't talking, for once.  He passed.
____________________________________

Patrick Bruel raises to 30k.  "I go all in, we make a big pot, then I sing the song," chatters Bruel.  I have no idea what he's talking about.  The other players pass, reluctant to make a big pot, or hear the song, or both.  "I said a big all in," he laments, picking up the pot.

Now it's a threeway flop, blinds Tronde Erik Eidsvig and Patrick Bruel calling utg preflop raiser Mika Paasonen...

the flop.  Tronde bets out 45k.  Patrick passes and Mika raises quickly to 140k.  An expert in sidelong glances, Tronde gives him a few and passes.

[Djinn]

Small blind Adam Junglen calls preflop and big blind Mark Teltscher checks.  The flop comes .  16k bet out from Adam... that's good enough.  Lots of shouting in the background, but 14 players still remain.

Last Five Hands of the Night have been announced...

[NoflopsHomer]

Ok, play will finish at the end of this level.

We will restart tomorrow at 3.30pm (2.30pm UK)

The problem stems from the tv crews wanting to film every play who cashed, so this meant we could've had an extra couple of hours last night. Instead, we're not going to make the final eight by tonight, (obviously).

Outer table action.

Greg Dyer raises to 30k from the cut-off, Nikolaus Jedlicka, the chip leader, re-raises to 75k. Greg passes.

Next hand, Mohamad Kowssarie takes the blinds with a button raise.

Finally, Phillip Yeh, pushes all-in from UTG and takes the blinds.

The feature table, from a better angle.

[Djinn]

Junglen vs. Paasonen:
Adam bets 55k on the turn, with the board: As   Mika calls, out of position.

The river pairs the .  Mika checks and Adam bets 135k; call, eventually.
Adam shows K-Q
Mika shows and takes the pot.
____________________________________

Just a couple more hands... and just when it looked like the final couple of hands would pass without consequence, it looks like we've had an elimination on the off-TV table (Homer investigating).

Counts stolen from the EPT Live Feed:
Tronde Erik Eidsvig   ?
Patrick Bruel  234k
Mika Paasonen  721k
Adam Junglen  ?
Mark Teltscher  567k
Juan Macieras  518k
Davidi Kitai  232k

Patrick Bruel reraises to 80k on the final hand of the night, showing the after Tronde passes the , and with that small triumph, they're packing up.

So are we.

[Djinn]

We have the unexpectedly early start tomorrow of 3:30pm (2:30pm UK time) so every precious hour of sleep is, er, precious.  We'll be following the final 13 and generally trying to add something to the feed which will be running from the Final Table straight round the world into your houses.  I leave you with Homer's full end-of-day chip counts, appearing any second now.

[NoflopsHomer]

And on, I think, the last hand of the outer table, we've lost Kees Alblas. Sander Lylloff raised, and Kees tried to move-in but his bet was counted as a string raise.

All the chips went in on an 8-8-9 flop. Sander holding A-9 and Kees holding T-6. A 6 on the turn and a deuce on the river changed nothing.

Final chip counts, stolen straight from big TK's sheet.
