Here's a shot of the man who has taken this tournament by the scruff of the neck, Michael Martin.  And yes Justin Truesdell is OUT! Here he is as he grabs his coat ready to go. I missed his exit hand but he told me briefly as he left, "At least I made a good call..." suggesting he was perhaps unlucky to find himself on the rail.  |

Yeah, it's pretty much a snap for after he's already put in 60k. |

Carter Gill is out, and not happy.
Lellouche raised and Carter Gill reraised preflop with the Frenchman calling.
K-Q-3
Gill pushes with A-Q and Lellocuhe snap-calls with K-Q, the board bricks and Gill is out.
Carter flips out, "Nice f**king preflop call, you f**king idiot... "You're a f**king asshole." He then departs from the slightly bemused table.

At the moment, Lellouche and Martin look like the guys to beat and both have strong results in past EPT's. (Martin 4th in Monte Carlo and Lellouche 2nd in San Remo and 5th here in London last year). |

The play thusfar has been superaggressive as it has been all tournament so it was no surprise when Huseyin Yilmaz just went to war with Max Pescatori with K-Q versus pocket eights. A Queen on the flop looked to have sealed Max's fate and the Pirate was just about to walk the plank when he spiked an eight on the river, leaving a frustrated Yilmaz rubbing his hands together angrily whilst an apologetic and sympathetic looking bearded Italian Pirate collected his booty. Max up to 300k now. Yilmaz down to dust...  |

He may have been knocked out much earlier in the tournament, but that hasn't stopped Humberto Brenes swanning around like he owns the joint, jumping in with advice whenever there's a table disagreement and passing information to the watching rail to the amazement of the watching poker organisers. He's only one step away from opening his arms and doing his famous shark eating motion. I only hope we have the camera trained on him when that happens! HUMBERRRRTOOOOOOOOO!  |

Eric Liu is also one of the men looking like he has the game to take down this EPT. He was just seen betting 230k into a 260k pot on the river of a     board and Dane Peter Eastgate, November Nine member, was forced into a very tough decision for his tournament life. Eventually he folded to leave the aggressive Liu, who also had a deep run in the Monte Carlo EPT, to take the pot, moving up to 684k... |
