Flop, ElkY bets, Thorson re-raises, ElkY goes all-in, Thorson begrudgingly calls.

Thorson =

ElkY =

Ace on the turn and Thorson's down to about 500K. Elky on a bit over 900K

[NoflopsHomer]

Big pot for Joseph Elpayaa who ended up all-in preflop for his 720k or so with against David Pham's . I didn't see the preflop action, only that there were at least 3 preflop raises between them before all the chips went in.

The board came out and a huge cheer from the Joseph's 'balla' friends rung out across the room as they went into high-fives and whooping.

Rhett Butler goes out to Kris Kuykendall, K-Q vs K-Q. But Kris hits a flush...

Next Thierry Van Den Berg is all-in with the bullets against Glen Chorny's Kings. Chorny apparently said to the dealer that if he put down a king, he would give the dealer $1,000 there and then. The King promptly came on the flop and Chorny gave the entire contents of his wallet to the dealer ($950). Shame the dealer can't accept it...

Eric Lynch loses a big coinflip with A-K against Richard Fohrenbach's Queens and then soon was out against James D'Ambrosio with K-6 against K-J.

[NoflopsHomer]

David Pham has doubled through Joseph Elpayaa. No details though, sorry.

[NoflopsHomer]

Garrett Adelstein out

Money went all in pre-flop against Hafiz Khan.

Adelstein raised, Khan went all in, Adelstein called

Khan had 10 10
Adelstein had Q Q

A ten on the flop and Adelstein never caught up.

Thankyou sir.

Redraw for 3 tables now in progress.

----------

Double up for Thorson. Harder raised pre-flop, Thorson pushed, Harder called for a 949k pot. As-Ts vs. Js-9s, Jc-4d-6h-8h-6c, Harder down to 362K.

[snoopy1239]

Annand 'Victor' Ramdin is OUT.

Ramdin =

Joseph Elpayaa =

Board =

Even He11muth would be proud of that bullet dodgage.

[NoflopsHomer]

Eric Van Der Burg is OUT. He pushed with on the board and was looked up by Allisen Connor's . The turn was met by an upset bang on the table from Eric and the river meant nothing.

[NoflopsHomer]

Scandie Timberg has been getting busy.

First he raises to 50k and is called by Joseph Elpayaa. Timberg checks the flop, Joseph bets 70k and Timberg calls. Timberg then check/calls again on the turn. But on the river, Timberg open-shoves for around 900k and Joseph only has about 800k behind, he folds, albeit reluctantly.

3-handed then between Emil Timberg (who limped UTG), Elky (who limped the button) and big blind Hafiz Khan.

They all check the flop before, Elky has a stab on the but is called in both spots. All three then check the river and Hafiz Khan's takes the pot.

Khan calls the raise in the next hand from Glen Chorny, but folds to an 85k bet on the flop.

[NoflopsHomer]

Lance Gettler is OUT. Ace King versus Glen Chorny's Ace Jack. Jack on the turn.

James D'Ambrosio is also OUT. His King Jack failed to improve against William Thorsson's Ace Ten.

Craig Hopkins picked up his first decent pot in a while, bet 70k on the turn of a board, forcing the short-stack Marius Olsvik.

Richard Forenbach doubles through Allisen Connor with vs .

Joseph Elpayaa just took another chunk of Emil Timberg's chips. Calling two bets of 70k and 120k on the turn and river of a board with , Timberg could only giggle and show .

Chip leader Glen Chorny was also in the pot, but folded to the turn bet. He has about 2.4 million.

[NoflopsHomer]

Kris Kuykendall            2,570,000

[NoflopsHomer]

Marius Olsvik doubles up with J-9 against Pierre Neuville's , catching a 9 on the flop and another on the river for good measure.

Emil Timberg is OUT. His Tens push from the small blind failed to hold against Evan Tindell's cut-off raise and subsequent call of the all-in.

[snoopy1239]

If one man has emulated the yoyoness of Julian Thew, it's Bertrand Grospellier, the young Frenchman boinging up and down like a squash ball on a bungee. His last pot came courtesy of Glen Chorny, who appears to be on a downward swing, ElkY betting 200k on a before announcing all-in on the River. Chorny instafolded.

----------

Holy moly, once chip leader of the outer tables with two million, Glen Chorny must be smothered in lard the rate he's sliding down the list, his latest encounter with Joseph Elpayaa seeing his stack drop to the 1.1 million mark. With the board reading -6s-Ah, Glen raised Joseph's Flop bet from 130k to 370k before checking the Turn and calling what I believed to be a 350k bet on the River. Joseph showed As-Kd and Glen, again, instamucked.

[NoflopsHomer]

A couple of TV hands we've missed but have caught up on.

Christian Harder has doubled through with Threes vs Paul Holub's King Jack.

David 'The Dragon' Pham has knocked out Michael Cooper with Ace King against Ace Ten.

We're now down to three tables of six players.
