For the chip lead, this one... On a flop of
Marcus Pettersson bet out, Geir Lian raised, and Pettersson moved in. A little think, and a call - with
...trailing behind Pettersson (whom I just found out is a sneaky Swede) with
for top two.
Turn:
making the whole thing drawtastic...
River:
- a blank and a giant pot for Pettersson, a huge hit for Lian - pictured looking stern. Fair enough.

Unsurprisingly, Geir Lian moves in pretty sharpish for his last 34k, and finds Ian Frazer re-raising. The blinds obligingly depart, and Frazer shows
, against Lian's
. A K-Q-6 flop added a bit of excitement, but the turn and river bricked sending
Geir Lian to the rail in 15th place, winning £2,165
.
Here's Frazer ready to Take On All of Norway:

Bjørn Andre Hovden just shoved his smallish stack into the middle but ran into the big slick of Arne Kristian Falkenhaug.
In bad shape with K2, he was looking to spike a deuce and the first card out obliged a 2 hitting the felt to a mighty nordic roar from Bjorn. Arne is a tough nut though, despite his comical "train driver" hat and with just 3 outs to hit now, he nonetheless managed to river an ace, sending Bjorn spiralling out of the comp with another viking roar.
Arne "I'll be a rack"
I've posted pics of him before but here's Bjorn again!

After that monster pot, here is a shot of our new chip leader, bespectacled Swede Marcus Pettersson.
Apologies for the fact that 30% of the picture is a random backside.

The flop came

Good game sir, 13 combatants remain...(2 brits still!)

Ian Frazer Doubles Up!
Three way to a
flop after a raise pre to 42k by Kjetil Skau, called by Marcus and then by Ian Frazer. I think Frazer bet out, was raised by Skau, and then moved in. Call!
Frazer shows:
Skau shows:
Turn and river:
, at which point Frazer can't help it, he yells "Come ON!" and then rushes over to thank Marcus: "Thank you for calling preflop! You priced me in!"
Up to half a mil and looking like he's going to remain a thorn in the Norwegians' collective side.

ALERT
!
Sick pot just played out!
Stokke is short and has been shoving farily often. One more shove, this time was flat called by Stig Rune Kveen, who found Daniel Platten moving in behind him. He called pretty much instantly as you do with Aces!
Daniel:
Tim:
A T came on the flop but an A on the turn was decisive and left Tim and Daniel drawing dead, meaning...
Tim Stokke
is
OUT
, eliminated in
13th
spot, winning
£3,031
and...
Daniel Platten
is
OUT
, eliminated in
12th
spot, winning
£3,031
Tim Stokke hopes for a miracle, in vain...
Platten gets flattened "what was I supposed to do!!!"
Stig calmly sips his drink as his two vanquished opponents shakes hands behind his back...

The demise of
Jim Jakobsen
who just fell in
11th
place, winning
£3,031
First off, it passed to him on the small blind and he popped in a raise to 100k. Clearly disappointed when big blind Erik Borkvik moved in for 119k, he had to call with his
, but found Borkvik holding
. This eventually turned into the nut flush on the river, and knocked him down to around 200k.
Then he got it in almost immediately preflop against Borkvik again - this time with
against
. Usually a good spot, but not with a 6-3-3 flop, and so we're on the FINAL TABLE BUBBLE........

For any of you who are wondering why they were holding auditions for the re-make of the exorcist in the background....no, no no no! The girl who looks like she may maim someone at any moment is in fact Jen who was snapped looking very hungry. Jen's sort of like a mogwai from gremlins, except she differs in that you
have
to feed her after midnight or she mutates into some sort of "timorous beasty" - ARGHHHHHH!!!!

And falling in
10th
place, winning
£3,031
is
Arne Kristian Falkenhaug
Well, all ten couldn't make the final - and the one to be eliminated was Arne, who pushed all in for 201,500 over the top of Sondre Barlien's preflop raise to 90k. He shook his head, ummed and ahed and generally looked uncomfortable, before making his mind up and firmly setting down the call.
Barlien:
Falkenhaug:
Flop:
Turn:
River:
And that was all she wrote. This was actually the last hand before a scheduled break in the Main Event, so it's just going to be overnight instead. The Final Table starts at 5pm tomorrow.
