Whilst Michael Martin pushes all-in uncontested on the feature table (Freddy Deeb took an age over his decision before eventually folding), Robin Keston (pictured below) is getting involved early doors. He called a 20k bet from Oyvind Riise on an A-6-4-2-J before checking down the River and showing a Six. Unfortunately, Oyvind revealed Pocket Queens to take the pot.
What I have seen thus far is that the structure is displaying a great deal of generosity, the players enjoying ample room to see some flops and play the streets. Of course the shorter stacks are still looking for opportunities to raise all-in pre-flop, but when two giant stacks lock horns, you can be treated to a number of interesting, and less formulaic battles.

Stig Top Rasmussen makes it a double (pretty much)...
On the small blind, the green'n'yellow sporting Rasmussen, on a roll with the calling (why stop when you're on to a good thing?) just knocked young David Shade Kruger down to the felt.
I caught the action from when Rasmussen was standing up and thinking about whether to call all-in on a flop of
. He had c. 300k behind and the pressure was on him after button Kruger had made the push. "Wow," he said, bringing the audience in on his thinking process, "Wow. Wow wow wow."
Then, having finished the process, "I call."
Stig Top Rasmussen:
David Shade Kruger:
Turn:
River:
"YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSS!!!" screams Rasmussen. "YES YES YES!" for emphasis. He punches the air and turns to talk to the rail in Danish (what is it about the Danes - they produce the only expressive winners/losers amongst the Scandinavians
)
Kruger moves almost his entire stack in the direction of Rasmussen, who now must be on over 800,000. Pictured: David, who said not a word while watching his dream of EPT victory recede into the really-not-likely distance.

Live TV coverage now on
http://www.eptlive.com/
.. am I allowed to post that here? If not, sorry - and feel free to remove this post.
Yes yes, you are - in fact there's an EPT Live thread on blonde, so you never have to leave the comforting warmth of your blonde home. I'm afraid I can't post the link to it as for some reason when I open that thread my Mac crashes for some reason, but I understand it works just fine on PC.
I don't know if it will be OK on your MAC, but you can try this way to see the EPT live :
1. Open your Media Player Sowtware
2. Like you would open an mp3, or a video, try to open as it were a file : "
http://tinopolis-PokerStarLive-Eng-500k.wm.llnwd.net/tinopolis_PokerStarLive_Eng_500k
"
I it's the way I do because like that, I'm able to resize de window and watch with the size I want without be in full screen...

One of only two Brits remaining in the event, the other, of course, being London's robin Keston, this chap is Andrew Luetchford, currently sharing a table with enigmatic Aussie Joe Hachem.

Hey Favorite Blonde Reporters --
Unfortunately I have to go to work for three hours so I'm going to miss some of this coverage. In the meantime......GO MICHAEL!!!!
Also, I went to the ept live site and couldn't find any button to click on to watch it. Does anyone know how to do this?
Thanks. See you later.

Yep, as expected, David Shade Kruger is now OUT, so this is the last opportunity, really, for me to post this new pic of him from earlier today, when he had a nice stack. Here it is:

Valeriy Ilikyan raises utg to 22k, called by The Great Kalo.
Flop -
- Valeriy bets 25k, and The Great Kalo calls.
Turn -
- now Valeriy checks. The Great Kalo also checks.
River -
- and neither of them feels like betting any more, they just check.
Showdown!
Valeriy -
(interesting utg raising there, imo)
The Great Kalo -
The Great Kalo is victorious!
