known by video games players and poker players but not really popular, it'll begin with this EPT.

Elky raises to 35k, Theo calls in the small blind.

Flop:  check-check
Turn:    check-check
River:    check, ElkY wins with a 45k bet

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Richard raises to 116k preflop, Bertrand re-raises to 285k total. 
4-3-J flop  ch-ch
Turn   Richard checks, ElkY bets 250k, Richard quickly says, "call."
River:    Richard checks, Elky moves in.  BIG pot now.  Richard, understandably, takes his time.  Bertrand takes two sips of water.  Call.

Bertrand shows 5-7  for the rivered gutshot(!)
Richard mucks. 
"Game of skill," says Rolf.

What is it with that hand?

[snoopy1239]

As a result of what is clearly the biggest hand of the Copenhagen EPT, Richard Toth is down to 500-600k.

Some info on the Hungarian player...

Richard burst onto the scene in the last year, including a superb second in the World Series of Poker $1,500 No Limit event in the summer. That result got him $330,000, but he made another big cash by winning the Austrian Classics €3,000 European Masters Event in October, pocketing another €100,000. This is his third EPT - but the first time he has made it beyond Day 1.

When you say 'no really popular', do you mean 'not particularly famous' or 'not particularly liked'?

Thank you for the coverage,

Alexandre and Bertrand have a lot of fans in France, they are both members of our community (www.clubpoker.net)

Go ElkY !

Now everyone's a comparative short stack to chip monster ElkY - going to be some all-ins, like that of Theo Jorgensen (240k or so), eventually called by Richard after another long think.
Theo shows .  Richard is probably regretting that call.
Richard:

Flop: 
Turn:    what a draw Richard Toth has picked up (Theo says, "pair the board!")
River:    (The poker gods are amusingly cruel sometimes).

So a brief swearword later, and Theo Jorgensen exits in 4th place, winning DKK 1022976 = €137,254

[mimilman]

i mean 'not particularly famous' .
like MaTz said he's very famous by hardcore gamers and begin to be a famous poker player.
but he's an online player so people don't know his head or right name.

[Tim635]

blinds and ante?

[snoopy1239]

but he's an online player so people don't know his head or right name.

And here is his head for those who don't know him...
