Pokerstars.com EPT Prague: Day 2 - At A Glance

[NoflopsHomer]

Jose Navarro is on an uber-roll, he has knocked out Ken Lennard with Kings against Queens, he then got it all-in on a 9-7-5 two diamond board with 5-5 against 'Allinstevie' Steve Devlin's in a re-raised pot, hit quads on the turn to knock out the former chipleader and now has over 400k and has the chip lead himself.

Leo Kam is OUT. Sixes against Christer Johansson's Jacks.

Mikael Nordin just made a big call for his tournament life with on a board after Johannes Strassmann set him in on the river. Strassman mucked his hand but was forced to show for the missed flush draw.

[Chili]

Jonas Danielsson is MIA and presumed OUT.


only 63 left with 56 being paid...


Spaniard Luis Sevilla will need an extra table soon to house his growing chips which he has chosen to stack in multiple short stacks instead of the uber fashionable supertall stack.

[NoflopsHomer]

And we've broken the bubble literally in record time, they got to 57 players and Tobias Reinkemeier knocked out Nichlas Saarisilta with King Jack against Sixes hitting both his hole cards. No time, even for MC Hammer!! Sorry folks, they're all in the money now, including we think just the one Brit - Tony Phillips.

[Chili]

Just before the bubble burst Florian Langmann was knocked out the ever growing stack of Jose Navarro with KJ v 33 all in preflop.

------------------------

Mike Ellis also missed slipping into the money and went out JQ v AJ.


------------------------

Elky was also busted before the bubble with AJ v AQ.

[NoflopsHomer]

Just before the break, I saw Yannic Mulder make a nice 30k preflop re-raise against Tobias Reinkemeier (who has been very active the last half level or so) and after the German passed, Yannic showed .

On the same table, there's a little battle between Marc Karam and Kristian Kjondal which is interesting since they made the Monte Carlo final earlier in the year, I think there's a lot of respect there and they're don't seem to be going after each other without a big hand, though there was bit of a scrap where Marc check/raised the turn in a blind vs blind hand on a board before betting 20k on the river, Kjondal mucked and Mark said, "Because it's you," showing the case .

Cristiano Blanco, Dortmund EPT runner-up has doubled through one of the few remaning Brits, Nick Goodalll with against

The board came down and, I kid you not, one of Cristiano railer's actually shouted out, "Mama Mia!" in a sigh of relief that his friend's Kings held. I'd never thought that that actual stereotype existed, but apparently so..

[Chili]

Oyvind Roysem was eliminated by Iliodoros Kamatakis with 44 v AQ but a flopped Queen sent Oyvind to the ever expanding rail.

[NoflopsHomer]

Just signed up and want to say you're doing a great job.

Thanks very much sir.

If there's any specific chip count that anyone wants, we'll try and find out because the chip counts given to us are about half an hour old and it can only take two hands for the chip leader to go broke!

Mike McDonald just doubled through Mikael Norinder with vs

Board:



Arnaud Mattern has taken a huge pot from Jose Navarro, after button raising, calling the re-raise from the big stack big blind Navarro and pushing all-in over the top of the 30k flop bet from the Spaniard on board He's over 200k now.

[Chili]

Nikolas Liakos just doubled up shorty Gino Alacqua, Nikolas raised about 30k from the button and Gino went all in for a further 66,000.  It was called and

Liakos 
Alacqua   

An ace came out first and Liakos lost only a small part of start though.

[Chili]

Hmm pretty stable, but i thought he'd be chipleader by now;)

Bad news, Yannic just lost 70,000 of his stack and is down to 55,000.  All in preflop against a shorter stack, it went raise & reraise but not sure which way round sorry.....

Yannic Mulder 
Luigi Rizzi   

The 9's stood.

[Chili]

From Holland to London - Tony Phillips has knocked out shortie Ville Petteri Nyman to add a much needed 40k extra to his stack.  Nyman shoved preflop with A8, Tony went all in himself with AK.  Best hand won...

[NoflopsHomer]

Just before the end Dennis Van Zoelen went out in 33rd, he was all-in preflop with Queens and both Adrian Koy and Christer Johansson called him. The flop was , Johansson checked, Koy bet out about 20k and Johansson passed.

Koy showed Kings, ahead of Van Zoelen's Queens which way it stayed for the last exit of the night. Time for the bagging and tagging of the chips.
