It's weird, when I'm watching Michael Schulze is pretty passive, but it seems he's re-raising with abandon while Floppy's down there. Goes to show if you only watch 15 mins of a game, you really have no idea of the overall dynamic. He re-raised preflop only once while I was there, and Ricardo let it go.
One other hand of note:
Michael Schulze called Ricardo Sousa's preflop 100k raise in the big blind, and checked the
flop. Check behind.
Turn:
He check-called Ricardo's 120k bet.
River:
A small pause and then Michael moves all in. Ricardo goes way into the tank, and stays there flipping his card protector over and over and over like some kind of talisman before eventually letting it go.

While I drag my feet a bit so Floppy stays tableside until the forthcoming break in 5 mins, I would just like to make a personal note about betting in lower chip denominations when higher ones are available. It annoys me, and the dealer. The winner of the pot spends ages stacking afterwards only to ship in loads of 5k chips when 10k ones would have done (half as many, in fact). I would hope that by the time you're heads up at an EPT you won't be fooled by the size of the physical stack rather than the actual chip count of your opponent. Rant over.

Very much a state of Ricardo raising every button but folding to an occasional chunky re-raise. The stacks aren't really going anywhere and Schulze I don't think bluffs. Ever.
No hands actually went anywhere of notice, but they're starting to get into the nasty habit of open-folding the small blinds quite regularly.
Jen, "I'm giving it another level before it can be called 'Tim vs Soren 2'."
Owen and Stephen. Enjoying the battle. Sort of. Maybe. Perhaps.

Is there common things in these players uses that can be compared too to the last EPT finalists ? something who can explain why those 2 head's up are so... long ?

I didn't want to slur players who plays better than me even if, for the watchers, it can be ... boring

Incidentally, they are now having a Time Out, which means what you think it means... a deal might well be afoot.
A deal is a deal.
This is a foot.
And now for something completely different...

No, no it isn't!
I can only report that the action has been varied, if at times tooth-pullingly slow. Ricardo, for example, took about two minutes to raise on the button once, and was rewarded by an instapass from Michael. Rumour also has it that the time he went into the tank for ages when the river flushed the board he actually passed Aces... no idea if this is true but it's possible.
Apart from that, no idea what hands each of these players is playing. A few flops have been seen, but there's not usually a struggle at that point - whoever bets the flop has taken it.

Almost a little bit of action. It seems the organisers have read Jen's earlier rant about chips, since now all the chips have been coloured up to the 10k ones.
Michael raises to 200k, Ricardo calls.
Ricardo checks, Michael bets 200k, Ricardo min-raises. Michael moves in. Ricardo passes.
Michael -- 2.2 million
Ricardo -- 1.4 million
