There are unofficially 111 players remaining who will return tomorrow at 12:00 local time, along with 86 Day 1a survivors.

The Bigger They Are, The Harder They Fall.

In the dying moments of the day, two huge scalps have been taken in the form of Juha Helppi and Peter Roche, both in unknown circumstances as neither player was in the mood to report on his exit hand.

111 players are left.

It has just been announced that the players will have six more hands tonight, and then it is bag-and-tag time.

Some Other Contenders

[user57637]

No player has come close to Steve Devlin's haul over around 110,000, but here are four players doing very well:

Anthony Lellouche is on 70,000.
Gerd Muller has 65,000.
Juha Lauttamus has 70,000.
Dag "Lucky D" Palovic (president of the Slovak Poker Federation) has moved up to 55,000.

Alexia Portal is Eliminated!

[user50492]

On a flop of {8-Spades}

, Alexia Portal bet out 6,000 into a 9,000 pot from the button, after her opponent checked. This was met by an all-in, which had her covered. After a long dwell and some smiley stare-downs, she called and tabled {A-Hearts}

which was drawing slim versus {Q-Spades}

. The turn and river brought no surprises and we have lost the French actress.

Dag Gets Some Back!

[user50492]

Table Mikkelsen is seeing some aggro action at the moment. In the latest hand, there was a raise to 1,600 from UTG. ElkY and Tommy Pavlicek both called and then Dag Martin made it 4,300 more from the small blind.

The UTG raiser tossed a coin to decide what to do. He must have lost the toss, as he folded reluctantly. ElkY also folded. Tommy Pavlicek was interested to know how much Dag had left behind, as he considered taking him on. After the stack was counted, Pavlicek took so long to make his decision that a frustrated ElkY called the clock. Pavlicek eventually folded and Mikkelsen took the pot.

The UTG raiser claimed to have folded jacks.

Stephen Devlin from Northern Ireland is our runaway chip leader on 120,000.

Second in chips is Juha Lauttamus from Finland on 88,000.

The average stack is 24,700.

Pavlicek Bullies Mikkelsen!

[user50492]

Tommy Pavlicek is putting his chip stack to good use. He raised preflop and Dag Martin Mikkelsen reraised to 2,500. Pavlicek then pushed out two towers of blue 1,000 chips, enough to cover Mikkelsen. Mikkelsen folded and Pavlicek now has 85,000 in chips.
