EPT Grand Final - Monte Carlo: Day 4 - Interactive

[Djinn]

Herman Zango is OUT in 28th -

Short stacked move-in preflop with over the top of Ram Vaswani's 35k early position raise got him heads up, in the end, against Eric Van der Berg, whose looked in pretty good shape against Herman, who prayed, "No Queen.  Diamonds.  Ten."
Flop:      Herman:  "King."
Turn:    Herman:  "King or diamond, any diamond..."
River:    A black Deuce, the ultimate blank, and he shook hands with his eliminator and headed for the rail (which is already packed with press and spectators).

[I KNOW IT]

Can you wish Ben the very best of luck please, Id love to see him take this down. Great guy deserves a big payday.

[Djinn]

Here's Dean Sanders, British terror of the last two levels yesterday, next to Soren Kongsgard - he is wearing a shirt which can only be described as pink (no arguments, Snoopy) which I mentioned to Nik who's glued to the rail.  He replied, "I dressed him - [the mind boggles] pink are the high denomination chips, we want to attract them..."

Steve Jelinek and stripey neighbour David Peters - one might be hesitant to read the paper while playing for a top prize of nearly two million Euros, with only 27 players left, but not Steve.

Jacob Larrsson is OUT in 27th place.

Josh Prager pushed in early position, Simon Johansson raised, but Jacob pushed from the blinds. Simon eventually called.

Board:



Josh trebles up and Simon's Eights take the side pot.

[snoopy1239]

Van Der Berg has taken a big pot off Antony Lellouche, the latter seeing his button raise with Eights moved over the top of by Van Der Berg's Queens. Lellouche called, but couldn't improve on the 9-3-5-2-6 board, the giving the Dutchman a flush.

Van Der Berg had a couple of hundred thousand less though at that point, so Lellouche is still in.

Yes, she is present, although I'm not sure she'll approve of shouts of norkage time.

[snoopy1239]

Anyone picks running well? All of mine from yesterday failed to make it into Day 4.

[Indestructable]

I am going for a Belgian winner.

This hand moves Van De Berg up to the chip lead as he becomes the first player to break into seven figures.
