Level 2 UpdateMar 11, '09 Johan Van Til has had one hell of a tournament so far. First of all he doubled up, then lost nearly everything, then doubled up again, and is now standing at 3,275. Jesper Hougaard has been making some small moves and attempts at taking down any pots which are up for the taking. Antony Lellouche has also been making some attempts at stealing pots. He recently got a little caught out after betting 250 in late position preflop. An American player to his left raised it to 800 and then the button reraised it to 2,200. All the blinds folded as did Lellouche. The American counted his opponent's stack, which was about 6,000. He thought and then folded. The button showed pocket kings. Elsewhere, Marcel Luske on the small blind checked a flop of Q-10-X blind. His opponent checked and Luske said, "I'm checking it blind, for you." The turn was a 7 and Luske threw out a couple hundred. "I've no idea what I have!" he sniggered. His opponent folded and Luske showed a 7 for a pair on the turn... "But I do know I have a 7," he added. Coming in late in the action, with the board showing 96366 - the pot was quite big for so early in the tournament. It looked like Davidi Kitai had basically bet the pot when he threw out 6,600 in front of him. His opponent called with A9and Kitai showed 86. "Good luck!" said the poor unfortunate as he left the tournament area. Player Tags: Marcel Luske, Davidi Kitai Early BustsMar 12, '09 Play is now full swing and already down 15 players. Two of which are local EPT Barcelona champion Sebastian Ruthenberg and one of yesterday's trailblazers Davidi Kitai (of Belgium). First Ruthenberg: He pushes all-in with A-8 from the cut-off and is called by the small blind who holds pocket jacks. Things look rosey for him as the board drops AA2, but the turn brings utter disappointment in the form of the J, with a not-so-helpful 3 on the river. Next Kitai: He raises from the small blind with 64 and gets one caller. The flop is K-5-2 with one spade. Kitai checks his inside straight draw, and his opponent bets 2,500. Kitai comes over the top with a raise to 5,000 which is met with "call". The turn is the J giving him a flush draw, so he pushes all in. His opponent calls and the river is a great big blank. He is beaten by K-7 for top pair.
