Damn djk with position is not nice
I'm sure all of you guys are following the live stream. Not too much happening with Robbie, everytime he starts a hand, it gets 4-bet/5-bet and he has to give up. pretty sick table.
He did won a smallish pot tho, 3-bet pre and take it down
Going to be dinner break soon. Will get dinner with Robbie and Nazgul I guess. Back later!
Restarting in a minute:
Blinds 10k/20k 3k
Chip counts:
1 Andrew Badecker 1,449,000
2 Jonathan Spinks 1,445,000
3 Erik Cajelais 1,187,000
4 Daniel Makowsky 908,000
5 Dan Kelly 876,000
6 Robbie Verspui 694,000
7 Vitaly Lunkin 639,000
RobbieV seems to be feeling pretty comfortable. He is going to stay patient and look for a good spot to double up
Still a lot of play left in the event
Well, not much I can tell you that you don't already know. Will catch Robbie at the next break and give you a report then.
Since the live stream is down, I'll go grab some chip counts for you now.
They are working on the stream, not sure why it's dead
Stream is back up

5 handed now
Rough chip counts:
Erik - 600k
Daniel - 3.3 mil
Johnathan -1.5 mil
Andrew - 1 mil
RobbieV 600k
RobbieV is playing a really patient game, he is the second short stack with 550k, Erik Cajeilas has 480k. Blinds up to 15k/30k/3k
"My best hand was Q 8, I'm serious, I didn't see a king or an ace".
"I had about 30 good spots to ship it, but then I look at 93o ...muck"
that's pretty card dead if you ask me.
In the blind battle hand against Jonathan earlier, RobbieV had 79
The board was 7:s T:h 8:h 2:c 7:c
Preflop, Jonathan complete, Robbie check
Flop check, Bet, Call
Turn check check
River Bet 68k, all in for about 500k, Jonathan agonizes for a few minutes and folds.
Nazgul and RobbieV both thought that he probably had an 8 or T

This thread deserves more love! Go Robbie, final 3!
+1 Final 3 now. He's the shortest stack, but anything is possible. And he just doubled up
4th place finished definitely tilted, tilt shove for $50k FTL
RobbieV still has a really decent chance, two big stacks are about even at 3 mil each, RobbieV at 1.1 mil.
Nobody is dominating the table so anything can happen.
5.12 miliion vs 1.88 million. 2.72: 1.
RobbieV only needs one double up.
RobbieV: "I'm going to take my one chance at the bracelet"
Nazgul: "Robbie is definitely the better heads-up player"
Here's a nice story about the 4 4 hand.
RobbieV raised, Daniel wanted to call, but he threw in too many chips"
Dealer: "That's over 50% more, you have to raise."
Daniel puts in the minraise and RobbieV insta-ships it
