Roy Brindley is OUT. Jacks into Kings.

Rory Rees-Brennan has about 17k, but the chip leaders look to be Ryan Daut and Woody Deck, both with over 30k. Dan Carter is on the former's table and saying one player just keeps paying Daut off everytime. Dan meanwhile is a little downhaving lost half his stack in awkward spots, joining him on the good ship Nolucksofar bound for Glumsville are Sorrel Mizzi, Nicolas Levi, Michael Martin and Gunnar Osterbrod, the fourof them having had nothing go right so far.

Sorrel in fact is down to just 3k pushing all-in on a flop to isolate an all-in short stack with his in good shape against the of his opponent until the hit the turn, a fist pump from the Italian whilst Sorrel remained expressionless even after the river.

Other players with stacks looking around or over 20k include Marcus Golser, Roland De Wolfe, Julian Thew and the 11-year-old hometown hero Dario Minineri.

Guys when you have a chance can you give me an update on 'Cort Kibler-Melby'....He'll be wearing a POKER TRILLION shirt or logo....a pic would be a very nice gesture too...:-)

The internet is verrrrrrrry sloooooooooooow.

Bizarre hand between two Italianoboys.

J-T-7-4 board, both get it all-in, around 4k each. The hands? Both have a pair of Fives.

Roland De Wolfe lost a 10k pot with Kings vs Ace King, he then just dropped more chips re-raising Stephen Chidwick after Julian Thew had flat-called Stephen's initial raise. Stephen pushed, Julian folded (A-K), Roland called the not too much more with A-Q only to find Chidwick also with A-K. A bricky board ending with a King sends the chips away from the wolf.

Tero Laurila -- 5,325



Table Ryan Daut and Brandon Schaefer. (Also notice Dan Carter's re-emerging Eufro...)

As I circled the tables, I noticed young Swedish player Cecelia Borg at the tables, recently spotted at the Irish Open.

I was surprised to see her at this EPT as well, especially given her lack of form in Live comps (even less hendonmob database entries than me!) A little investigation later and I discover that she won the bet365 leaderboard, which meant she has been paid in to play in all the EPT and WPT events this year. Sweet deal !

Julian Thew is OUT. A limp from Marc Convey's favourite player, Dag Palovic, Julian made it 800, and just Dag called.



Dag checks, Julian bets 1,700, Dan sets him in for another 5k. Julian eventually makes the call with Aces. Dag has pocket Sixes and shouts, "No Ace! No Ace!". He gets his wish after the bricky and turn and river.

When she wins a pot does she say, "Resistance is futile." ?

Peter Jepsen is sitting next to me chatting to some Danish guys so I think he might be out.

Having just dashed for some quick dinner, we're now back. Half the players are on their dinner break as we speak while the other half are playing the 150/300 level now.
