For those of you watching the live feed, what is the action like? Are they seeing may Flops? Does the structure seem good?

The big stacks are dictating the play, with every pot being raised pre. A good number of flops are being seen.

Are the shortstacks mostly folding them, waiting for a big hand or an opportunity to push all-in. I only ask, because it's difficult to get an overall feel of that particular table when we have the two outer tables to keep an eye on too. Have any players on that table impressed you? I understand Stig received a bit of stick from Daniel Negreanu for his A-T hand.

yep... one of them has just raise to 5BB (stack around 10BB) and has steal the blinds they wait and really didn't want to be out...

How's Vincent doing? If he makes the FT you guys can let him pitch his tent in your luxury blonde suite of rooms!!!!

Watching it and can't help but be impressed at how well Antonio has played after the QQ v AT hand. The structure has definetely allowed plenty of play at this stage. 1 small query is that the ante has only just risen from 1k to 2k after 3 levels or so with a 1k ante any reason for this other than for allowing more play at this stage of the event.

Not very exciting to be honest. The small stacks are picking their spots... Antonio and Stig are butting heads every once in a while...with nobody the clear winner. Maxime is the only player to really use the re-raise...it's worked, and it's backfired with a re-raise all in.
Just listening really, nothing to peak interest.



EDIT: OF course as i write the above we lose a player pushing with 10-8..... i see dead people

Yeh, that was abs terrible play. Two ppl limp for 10k and SB completed then he just shoves for 700k+....really good.

[dusterman]

It looks more adventurous than the outter tables but esfandiari is trying to boss it and the chemistry between him and the Stig is bubbling nicely. They are going to share a big pot soon me thinks.

If you look back at our last chip count, you'll notice the differences are few. However, you may also have noticed that Johnny Lodden and Henrik Gwinner have question marks next to their name.

Dum dum dum...

according with EPTLive Johny Lodden (and David miara) are OUT but I don't know How... if you have any news...

[Djinn]

Johnny Lodden is the player whose stack has changed most dramatically during the start of Level 22 (just think about that for a moment - this is the 22nd 90 min level of this tournament!), but not in an upwards direction.  For a start he raised with , found Henrik Gwinner moving in behind with , called, and lost.  That on the flop cost him dearly - now down to 245k. 
_________________________________________________________

But elsewhere, moments later - won a pot for Boekhoff off Joe Hachem, who doesn't appear to be taking the downswings in luck with the same calm as some of them.  He is getting a massage, though, which surely must be a soothing thing.  Although he didn't seem delighted to see v. short stack Vincent Secher get it all in with vs. - his shout of 'one time!' getting my attention as the bathrobe-wearing superqualifier doubled to just over 400k.  Pictured, pre and post double up.

Yes indeed, and just to confirm, that player was Wallid Bou Habib from Lebanon.

Patience.... they just have to look at a screen - we're in a different room to the tournament with a notepad... details with you soon (don't worry we are unlikely to miss a non-TV table exit     )
