This Guy (in the yellow comic-strip type Tshirt which appears to bear the legend FLASH! which seemed appropriate as our taking your picture at one of these tournaments seems to result in a few stunned seconds of blindness) just went for it short stack vs. short stack with
preflop, called by
.
Flop:
Turn: Yes,
River: Irrelevant and Comic Book Guy gets a new lease of life while his shouty fans on the rail rejoice; meanwhile the young Norwegian on the losing side of this coin toss mourns quietly, along with the railing Norwegian bloggers, who insist I write this up in a solemn manner.

It just came to me. I'm surprised no one recognised him.

After grinding like this all day -
- Julian is OUT. He ran his pocket Tens into Mateyboy's pocket Kings.
Here he is in slightly better days, when, like a munchkin who'd just heard the Witch was dead, he was short but happy:

Matthias Kurschner as previously featured on Interesting Hoodiewatch has been tangling with rhs neighbour Peter Eichhardt quite a bit. I get the impression their table is actually pretty interesting to watch, stocked with players who play creative and adaptive poker, but the problem is that quite a few, Kurschner included, seem to be playing in slight slow motion - like their corner of the tournament room was experiencing some kind of space/time oddity where everyone's dwelling time has expanded for some reason.
Anyway, over around 10 minutes these two consecutive hands progressed as follows:
Peter Eichhardt raises preflop utg to 1,300 and Matthias Kurschner re-raises to 4,300. After the "what's behind?" query, it appears that he's got a little less than his opponent... it lies there in little stacklets while they both look very serious. Eichhardt calls. Flop:
. Check to Kurschner whose 6k bet eventually wins him that one.
The very next hand it's Kurschner utg and min-raising (to 800). Pass as everyone gets out of the way...back to P.E. who calls and checks the
flop. Check.
Turn:
Now Peter Eichhardt bets out 2,500, called, slowly. (NB Imagine reading this in the voice of the Shipping Forecast)
River:
Eichhardt gets his 3k river bet paid and shows the
. Someone adds to the surreality of the moment by saying, "Nice bluff."

Crazy three-way all in
ACTION!
The flop says
and it's Flemming Hilt (my new Name Of The Day), Thomas Christiansen (please note - one of my three picks) and Negreanu.
Negreanu -
for top pair
Hilt -
for two pair
Christiansen -
for a set
Turn and river, respectively -
and
Meaning that no-one improves, my pick is up to around 40k, Flemming Hilt takes the side pot but that's only around 4k, and Negreanu is down to about 8k and looking irked. He has since busted;
Noah
Boeken
took him out in some sort of way that I don't know.

Jason Laso fans: double-up!
From the horse's mouth - he raised to 1.1k with A-Q, and another gent moved all in for another 9.5k or so. Jason called. The other guy had A-J and didn't improve. Jason's up to 19k now.

Amazing crazy three-way all-in
ACTION!
again, but different than last time.
A raising war pre-flop sees Rasmus Akeblom (my new Name Of The Day), Leroy Soesman and Marcel Kloof flip 'em over.
Kloof -
Akeblom -
Soesman - wait for it -
Obviously. There's lots of shouting concerning the sickness of it all, and Soesman is praying all the while that his Aces stand up, and ultimately the best hand does in fact take it, the
doing absolutely nothing for anyone. Marcel Kloof is OUT and Akeblom's down to around 10k.

The clock has been stopped and they're playing 5 more hands before the chip race and hometime.

Jarle Aasen - end of day bluffer
Just now he put Michele Limongi to the test on the river with the board reading
. The pot stood around 10k and he bet 12k leaving himself what is usually referred to as a bowl of rice. Limongi wasn't deep stacked enough to call this lightly, and he went in to the tank in a serious manner. Eventually he passed
... and was shown the totally missed
and a big sigh of relief from Aasen who just had to stretch a bit and talk to some laydeez.

Sorry fans, that was the high point in a pretty grind-y day which ended up, literally minutes before the end of play, with a bust-out. Dana is bad luck in trainers and hairdye.

I resent that Jason Laso's exit is being blamed on me by certain disreputable elements of the updating community. Unlucky, Jason. Jen will be dealt with later.
Meanwhile, I witnessed only one exit in the last five hands - Jeppe Lundsgaard somehow got it in preflop with
against I think Allan Baekke's
. The board was a moderate-to-unhelpful
, and that probably brings the number of players coming back for Day 2 to 83.
