We currently have 34 players still in the Main Event, and in 10 minutes we have a break again.

Some of the profiles still in the competition includes:

  • Michael Tureniec
  • Juha Helppi
  • Johnny Lodden

The chips are getting more and more difficult to count, but I will try to get back to you with a few of the stacks as soon as possible.

After the break the antes and blinds will be 5k/10k/1k, and the next money jump will be at 32 players, when the players still in are guaranteed €10,060.

Managed to catch up with GoMore21 just as he played a hand in the $2k event.

GoMore raised it up to 3,500 from CO, and BU made it 7,300.. GoMore made the call and the flop came J:c 3:d 6:h. GoMore checked and then called the 8,300 bet from BU.
Turn was T:d, and our coach checked again, BU made it 16 200 this time, and GoMore pushed all in for 150k total and got called!

GoMore21 showed T:h T:s and was up against A:h A:d.

the 9:h on the flop was of no help to his opponent who got knocked out on 14:th place, and GoMore21 now have more than 330k - wich is over 1/3 of the chips in play! Way to go!

We are now at level 17, with blinds of 6k/12k/1k, with 30 players still in the competition.

Florian Langmann just picked up some chips.

MP made a raise up to 22k and Langmann in CO called, so did BB.
The flop came 6:h 9:c 6:d, and BB checked, MP3 c-betted 36 000, Langmann called and BB folded.
Turn was A:s, this time MP checked, and Langmann bet out 50 000, enough to take down the pot.

Also, Kent Lundmark, winner of EPT Barcelona this season is bust. That also makes sure the winner of this years EPT Copenhagen will be a first time winner!

Per Linde is putting pressure on his opponents with his huge stack. Putting them all in and having to make difficult decisions.

We now have 30 minutes left of level 18, and that will probably be the last level of the day. We now have 27 players left, and we are going to play it down to 24 players.

Pernille Ravn, the only woman still in the competition was sooo close to bust a second ago.

She moved all in from SB, and BB called and they showed:

Pernille: 3:h 4:s
BB: A:h 4:d

The board: K:d 6:s 3:c - Q:h - 7:s

A fortunate 3 saves her tourney life, and she is now up to around 450k

GoMore21 is currently on a dinner break, and in the $2k event there are 10 players left. GoMore is in good shape with 250k, and the average stack is just over 100k. As mentioned, 8 players get paid!

We are now down to 25 players, and Florian Langmann now has a stack of over 1,2 million!

One more to go, then we are done for the day!

And there we are! 24 players left, and the play has ended for the day!

We will get back to you during the night, with accurate chip counts, and a recap of the day as a whole, and hopefully with some good news from GoMore21 and his $2k side event!

We are ending the night here in Copenhagen, with 24 plyers left in the Main Event.

We have the Swede Per Linde in top, and just behind him we find the German Team PokerStars pro Florian Langmann.

Among those who didnt make it through day 3 we find both our Team PokerStrategy.com players VojtaR and Thorsten77. Vojtar had a really tough day, and busted pretty early, but Thorsten77 made it to place 37 where he went out with JJ vs. AQ. a Q on the river sent him out of the tournament.

Tomorrow we will se Florian Langmann, Juha Helppi, Michael Tureniec and the chip leader Per Linde at the tables. We also have Juha Helppi and Surinder Sunar still in the chase, but they are at place #23 & 24, and we will see if they manage to fight it back.

We will see you with live updates from the tables at 12:00 CET tomorrow again! Welcome back!

We are back here in Copenhagen, waiting for Day 4 to tart.

Today we are going to play the 2 last minutes on level 19, and then move to level 20 where the blinds and antes will be 6,000/12,000/1,000.

The seating draw for Day 4 looks as follows (interesting names in bold):

Name - Country - Chips - Seat:
Helge Rahbek - Denmark - 512 000 32-1
Dmitry Vitkind - Russia - 244 000 32-2
Johnny Jensen - Denmark - 223 000 - 32-3
John Eames - UK - 570 000 - 32-4
Daniel Johansson - Sweden - 389 000 - 32-5
Juha Helppi - Finland - 142 000 - 32-6
Pernille Ravn - Denmark - 352 000 - 32-7
Lars Krogh - Denmark - 813 000 - 32-8
Joel Nordkvist - Sweden - 1 236 000 - 31-1
Jens Lauridsen - Denmark - 594 000 - 31-2
Florian Langmann - Germany - 1 304 000 - 31-3
Michael Tureniec - Sweden - 1 089 000 - 31-4
Per Linde - Sweden - 1 622 000 - 31-5
Simon Hanninger - Sweden - 216 000 - 31-6
Ivan Freitez - Venezuela - 1 024 000 - 31-7
Jan Sørensen - Denmark - 499 000 - 31-8
Mikhail Lakhitov - Russia - 155 000 - 30-1
Charles Mclntyre - Ireland - 232 000 - 30-2
Mudassar Khan - Denmark - 265 000 - 30-3
Nikolas Liakos - Sweden - 653 000 - 30-4
Surinder Sunar - UK 149 000 - 30-5
Kevin Iacofano - USA - 685 000 - 30-6
Andrea Dalle Molle - Italy - 228 000 - 30-7
Simen Johannessen - Norway - 211 000 - 30-8

As it seems, table 31 is going to be a very very tough one, with all the top 4 players sitting there. My prediction is that it's going to be a battlefield between 4 Swedes and Florian Langmann.

None of the players remaining have ever won an EPT tournament, wich guarantees that we are going to have a first time winner here in Copenhagen!

I will be back with the first updates after 12:00 CET when the cards are in the air for Day 4 of PokerStars.com EPT Copenhagen.
