Blinds are now 10k/20k ante 2k

The final table continues... for the benefit of those without streaming, Mark Teltscher has been pretty active recently - re-raising Mika Paasonen preflop, and taking one down, before getting the same treatment from Sander Lylloff, who raised his preflop 51k by 170k...
Mark:  "Aces.  I can beat any other hand.  Do you have it?" 
Sander:  "No."
Mark passes.

Nikolaus Jedlicka is OUT in 7th place winning €154,700

A little more about the 7th place finisher:

Young Austrian Nikolaus is having a pretty good summer. In June, he won the Austrian Masters main event for €70,940 and he's also cashed in several other smaller events in Austria in the last year. Known as "RealAndyBeal" on PokerStars, Nikolaus is a Supernova player and cashed W-Dollars for buy-in to Barcelona. He's only been playing a couple of years and normally plays Omaha cash games.

Adam Junglen moves in for 264k preflop.  Mika passes with minimal fuss, Mark asks for a countdown..."Pretty tough for me to lay this one down..." Absolutely no reaction from Adam... Mark passes with medium fuss round to Sander Lylloff, who says, "I am going to have to call."

So we lose Adam Junglen in 6th place, winning €196,500

[NoflopsHomer]

He may be just 19, but Adam Junglen has already made a real name for himself both online and on the live circuit. Playing as "AJunglen7" on PokerStars, he won the Sunday Million in July for close to $200,000 – adding to a string of impressive tournament results on the site. He also cashed in this year's Aussie Millions and came 5 th in the pot limit event at the Johnny Chan Poker Classic in Canada. Things didn't start so well here in Barcelona - the airline lost his luggage - but Adam's fortunes have changed since then. He survived a table featuring Greg Raymer and Patrick Antonius on day 1B and hars been soaring ever since. This is his first final table on the EPT.

Revised chip count:

Greg Dyer -- 1,529,000
Mark Teltscher -- 1,423,000
Mika Paasonen -- 1,049,000
Sander Lylloff -- 920,000
Tronde Eigsvig -- 439,000

Hey guys, great updates as usual. A quick question- has anyone ever won 2 EPTs before? I'm guessing so, but has any Brit?

Just wondering, Mark Teltscher really is on the brink of something massive here. Poker can be judged only by results and if he gets this one, he might just make himself the mose successful English player for some time.

Greg Dyer  2,138,000

I don't think anyone has won 2 before

Not sure Roland De Wolfe, Ram Vaswani, Devilfish etc will be too chuffed about that. Mark plays every single tournament the World has to offer, I can only imagine how much he's spent in buy-ins.

No precedent - Teltscher would be the first double champ...  Here's what the Pokerstars Profile has to say about the Snapper:

Mark has already had enormous success at EPTs – he won EPT2 London for £280,000 and came 11 th at the Grand Final for €33,500. Sandwiched between those two successes was another huge win  - the $5,000 NLHE tournament at the Five Diamond World Poker Classic in Las Vegas, Nevada - for a further $374,965. As of 2007, he has made nearly a million dollars in live tournament winnings. Mark comes from a backgammon and bridge background – and was an Under 18 bridge champion.

Tikay, Compo Jen and I just had a fascinating five minute conversation with Greg Raymer who was talking about his his love of limit hi/lo and limit stud hi/lo and triple draw. His insights are great, if you ever get just a minute of his time, you could learn so much.

[easypickings]

Yeah, you're right Snoops. Those guys have consistently done the business in America. If he does get his second though, with the fields increasing all the time, it might be a very long time til he is caught.
