Trond Eidsvig picked a spot to move in with .  It was a bad spot, because someone to his left looked down and found , taking the last remaining chips from the unusually-talkative Norwegian.

ALSO

Tommi Horkko, racing his all in pre against
Flop: 
Turn:  The no-hope-possible
River:  (just for completeness' sake)
_______________________________________

Dropped to a dangerous level and all in pre with - a slightly luckier pair of Sevens - was Torbjorn Jonson.  The Swede was called by Glen Chorny who promptly saw his Nines go down the tubes as Jonson spiked a Seven.  Still short though.

I know about this because an almighty roar went up from what I thought would be a coachload of railers on the, er, rail by Hall's table.  In fact, it turned out to be about three of them, but they were super excited.  One was doing some kind of dance, shouting something about shipping it and waving a beer bottle around.  Hall on 180k now - that number definitely signifies a double through.

After a formidable run yesterday that led to him finishing the day as chip leader, you'd be forgiven for assuming that Oyvind Riisen had swalled a bag of Mario World invincibility stars, but today has been a slightly different story. Failing to improve on his stack, Oyvind has lost the chip lead to Johnny Lodden and Peter Traply and is gradually slipped down the ladder one by one. His latest sip of a rung was against Giovanni Nervo, the young Italian player finding himself all-in with Pocket Sevens against Oyvind's A-9. A 5-6-Q Flop was followed by a J Turn and T River, meaning Giovanni, much to his evident relief, receives a timely double up, whilst Oyvind takes another hit.

Gordon Vayo wins a 350k+ pot, doubling him to a very comfortable stack indeed.  I only caught the very end, as he was scooping nearly all of Tom Stig Ahlberg's stack holding on a board of .  Ahlberg down to a desperate 33k - no idea how the betting on that went, or where the money went in, though.

Praise silence for the stack of the current chip leader, Johnny Lodden, possibly the neatest big stack I've ever seen. Until I praise his stacking abilities too much, can anyone confirm the number of chips in each column? I'd hate to think that he was trying to pull a fast one and deceive us intrepid reporters with columns of 39.

You know how sometimes it's possible to tell just from the winner's hand and the loser's expression whether or not someone just got grotted?

Well I heard Eric Liu saying those immortal words of resignation, "That's poker.  That's what it is," and went to have a look at the table.  It turns out that he was talking to Brian Green, who'd just lost most of his stack doubling up neighbour and fellow shortstacker Rahal Kalil.  Kalil showed and the board was standing: so I am guessing that he'd been a little bit dominated until receiving that nice flop...
