Viktor Blom — 443,200 Average Chip Count: 157,272 Notable Eliminations: Eric Baldwin Big Hands: Daniel Negreanu is Really Good at the WSOP Europe Daniel Negreanu furthered his efforts to make a third WSOP Europe final table during the last level of the night. In a recent hand Negreanu checked a Q 8 3 K board and David Peters bet 15,700. Negreanu made the call and the river brought the J. Negreanu took the initiative this time and bet 45,000. Peter mucked and his stack dropped to 280,000. Negreanu held 156,000 after the hand, more than enough for him to make some moves with tomorrow. Eric Baldwin Eliminated The reigning Card Player Player of the Year, Eric Baldwin, has busted out of the tournament during the last level of the day. He opened a pot from the cutoff for 7,000 and Quinn Do reraised to 20,000 from the small blind. Baldwin moved all in and Do made the call. Their cards: Baldwin: A 10 Board: Q 7 5 2 5 Baldwin lost the hand and Do grew his stack to 136,000. Phil Laak Eliminated Phil Laak was eliminated from the tournament when his A-K ran into pocket fours and there was no help on the board for the Unabomber. He still leaves London with his first gold bracelet. Making for a successful jump across the pond. Praz Bansi Eliminated Praz Bansi moved all in for 33,100 preflop and Remy Biechel made the call. Their cards: Bansi: 9 9 Board: Q 8 5 J K Bansi was eliminated after the hand and Biechel held 130,000. Arnaud Mattern Takes a Nice Pot off Barny Boatman Barny Boatman raised to 5,100 under the gun and Arnaud Mattern reraised to 14,400 from middle position preflop. Boatman made the call and then both players checked a K 8 3 flop. The turn fell 7 and Boatman checked. Mattern bet 13,000 and Boatmn made the call. The river fell 8 and Boatman checked again. Mattern bet 26,000 and Boatman went into the tank. He eventually made the call but mucked his cards when Mattern revealed A K. Boatman dropped to 110,000 after the hand and Mattern held 300,000. Quintessential Cousineau Tony Cousineau was down to his final 14,000 when he decided to call a bet from Clint Coffee that was devised to put him all in. Cousineau was in the lead with pocket queens against the A-3 of Coffee, but the board brought a third ace and Cousineau was eliminated. Player Tags: Tony Cousineau, Daniel Negreanu, Phil Laak, Barny Boatman, Quinn Do, Eric Baldwin, Arnaud Mattern, Praz Bansi, Remy Biechel Level 10 Update: Viktor Blom Rockin' ItSep 25, '10 Note: Players are now on a 90-minute dinner break. They will return at 8.45 p.m. local time. Blinds: 600-1,200 with 200 ante Players Remaining: 98 of 346 Chip Counts: 1 Viktor Blom — 450,000 Card Player Family Chip Counts: Barry Shulman — 81,000 Average Chip Count: 105,918 Notable Eliminations: John Racener Big Hands: Viktor Blom Takes the Lead Magnus Persson raised preflop UTG+1 and Viktor Blom reraised preflop. Persson made the call and the two saw a flop of 9 6 5. Both players checked and then the 2 fell on the turn. Persson checked, Blom bet 13,500, and Persson made the call. The river fell 5 and Persson checked again. Blom bet 49,000 and Persson made the call. Blom flipped over AA and Persson mucked. Blom held 480,000 after the hand as he continues to increase his chip lead. He ended the level with 450,000 in chips. Three Streets of Value for Schulman Nicolas Levi raised to 3,000 UTG +1 and Nick Schulman made the call from late position. Ivey made the call from the big blind as well. The flop fell A 4 3 and Ivey and Levi check. Schulman bet 6,500. Ivey mucked and Levi called. The 8 fell on the turn and Levi checked. Schulman bet 15,000. Levi called. The river fell 2. Levi checked and Schulman bet 25,000. Levi called and mucked when Schulman flipped over 4 4. Levi held 100,000 after the hand. During happier times at the start of the day he was one of the chip leaders. Schulman rose above 200,000 after the hand. Shak and Awe On a flop of J 9 5, Antonio Esfandiari had led out, only to be raised to 18,000 by Dan Shak. Esfandiari went into the tank, only to eventually announce all-in for around 140,000 in total. Shak called without hesitation, and the players revealed their hands. Esfandiari: K 10 Shak: 6 3 With a dominant flush draw, gut shot straight draw, and the currently good king-high, Esfandiari was a strong favorite with all but a few thousand of his chips in the middle. The turn came the 2, leaving Shak drawing only to the remaining non-diamond threes and sixes. The 3 did roll off on the river, and Esfandiari exploded out of his seat in shocked disgust. As the dealer laboriously counted out the stacks, Esfandiari politely said “Nice hand.” Shak apologized about the bad beat, but unsurprisingly this did little to salve Esfandiari’s wounds. Shak’s stack grew to around 280,000 after the hand. Show The Bluff Phil Laak bets 3,000 from mid-position and Andy Frankenberger calls from the cut-off. Dan Fleyshman calls also, from the big blind. The flop is dealt A J 2 and it is checked around. The turn comes the 7. Fleyshman checks, Laak bets 5,000, Frankenberger calls, and Fleyshman folds. The river is the Q, Laak bets 11,000 and Frankenberger thinks for some time. He then raises it to 26,000, putting the decision back to Laak. Laak goes into the tank – he has about 58,000 behind his original bet. Eventually Laak passes and instantly starts trying to get Frankenberger to show his cards, “Show the bluff and make me crazy. I’ll pay you, just say the number!” He takes out some sterling notes and places them on the table. “I’ll give you £40 to show me the bluff,” he says smiling. Frankenberger stays quiet as the others debate what he had. He now has 147,000 in chips. Up and Down Day for Lacay Coming in late into the action, Ludovic Lacay has moved all in for 22,000 on a J 8 4 5 8 board with about 15,000 already in the middle. The decision is on Daniel Steinberg and he takes his time. He finally calls and mucks when he sees Lacay’s A A for the nut flush. Steinberg has 120,000 remaining while Lacay reaches the 74,000 mark. He soon loses a good few chips however when he calls Eugene Katchalov’s all in with pocket nines. Katchalov has A Q and the board falls Q 5 8 8 J. “It’s been like this all day!” says Lacay. Present for Praz Allen Cunningham bets 3,500 from UTG and Roland de Wolfe calls from the small blind. Praz Bansi calls from the big blind and the flop comes 9 6 5. De Wolfe and Bansi check and Cunningham bets 6,000. De Wolfe folds but Bansi pops it to 14,800. “What do you have behind?” asks Cunningham. It’s about 33,000. After a few minutes Cunningham passes and Bansi mucks. The British pro is nearing the 60,000 mark just before dinner time. De Wolfe Gets Lucky Guy Gorelik bets 3,000 from late position and Roland de Wolfe calls from the hijack. Martin Davis makes it 9,500 and Gorelik steps aside. Players begin to make their way out for the dinner break as de Wolfe and David go head to head. De Wolfe asks Davis, “A-K?” “Yep, I have,” answers Davis, and then sadds, “Maybe.” De Wolfe calls and the flop is dealt K Q 6. Davis bets 9,000 and smiles. De Wolfe sighs and debates whether he wants to come back after dinner with 10 big blinds. “I know I’m behind,” he says. As the room eventually clears, de Wolfe moves all in for 17,300. Davis calls and shows A K. De Wolfe reveals Q J. The turn is the A and the river is the 10 giving de Wolfe a straight. He smiles mischievously as Davis simply says, “Shit!” Left in the Deck Chip Movers and Shakers The last two levels of the tournament have truly created a new hierarchy within the chip counts. Viktor Blom, the alleged “Isildur1” has been crushing it today and he now holds more than 400,000 to lead the way. We have two players at the 300,000 level and they are Phil Ivey and Darren Woods. The 200,000 club can count Barny Boatman, Nick Schulman, Thomas Bichon and Andre Pantling among its members.

Boyd Plowman was all in from seat 3 and Michael Mizrachi made the call. Plowman: J9 Mizrachi’s trip sevens was good against Plowman’s busted club draw and Mizrachi scored the knockout.

Duy Le – 1,040,000 Annie Duke Bansi Slips Up The player in seat 5 moved all in for about 100,000 preflop and action folded around to Praz Bansi on the button.

Kling Can’t Call Picking up the action after the flop came down AK9, Lauren Kling bet 28,000. Her opponent in seat 2 thought for a few moments as the ESPN cameras looked on and then repopped all in for about 60,000 more. A look of frustration overtook Kling’s face as she just shook her head disgust as she released her hand. “Yes!” seat 2 exclaimed, throwing in a fist pump for good measure. “What?” Kling asked a little irked. “Was it a bluff.” Seat 2 shook his head as he flipped over AJ for aces. Kling was at 257,000 after the hand. Aces Hold For Kenney Brynn Kenney moved his opponent all-in on a flop of Q95 and his opponent called off his last 45,000. Kenney showed AA and his opponent tabled the QJ. Kenney was ahead and stayed ahead when the turn and river came the 8 and the 2. Kenney has 535,000. Kostritsyn Makes a Straight, Wins a Pot There was over 100,000 in the middle with the board reading J749A and Alexander Kostritsyn was heads-up and bet 108,000. His opponent went into the tank for a while, but eventually called. Kostritsyn showed the 108, showing the nut straight and his opponent mucked. Kostritsyn has cracked the top 10 in chips with 751,500 in chips. Mercier Gets a Gift The under-the-gun short stack raised to 10,000 and Jason Mercier made a three-bet which would put the short stack all-in. The short stack called and Mercier showed AJ the under-the-gun player showed 52. The flop came 743 and the all-in player flopped a straight draw. The J came on the turn and the pair outs for the all-in player. The river was the 8 and Mercier’s stack climbs to 325,000. Schoenberg Eliminated Erica Schoenberg moved all-in with A6 and was called by her opponent with AK. The flop came 654, giving Schoenberg the best hand, but the 8 on the turn gave her opponent a flush draw which got there on the river with the 7. Schoenberg has been eliminated shy of the money and got up from her seat as soon as the river card was dealt. Mizrachi Cracks Aces There were already 70,000 in the middle and there was a flop of J63.

Dlugozima was left with 270,000 after the hand. Robert Mizrachi Loses a Pot Robert Mizrachi bet 42,000 from middle position and Matthew Reed three-bet to 115,000. Mizrachi made the call. The flop came J93 and Reed bet 120,000. Mizrachi called. The turn brought the 2 and Reed bet enough to put Mizrachi all in. Mizrachi folded and was down to just 270,000. Peter Jetten Eliminates a Player Laurentius Sloot was all in for 124,000 with the A8 and was called by the pocket queens of Peter Jetten. The board ran out 66210K and Sloot was gone. Jetten was up to 830,000 after the hand. Scotty Nguyen Eliminated Scotty Nguyen was getting short when he moved all in preflop with A-J. Unfortunately for Nguyen, he ran into the pocket kings of his opponent. The board offered no help and he was gone. Johnny Lodden Doubles Up On an A74A3 board Johnny Lodden shoved for 419,000 and Paolo Cesar made the call. Lodden tabled the 77 and was way good versus the A9 of Cesar. Lodden doubled to 1,670,000 while Cesar was down to 965,000. Sam Haddad Eliminated Sam Haddad moved all in preflop for 167,000. Duy Le called. Haddad tabled the A7 and was behind against the AJ of Le. The board ran out J9755 and Haddad was gone. Le grew his stack to 2,780,000. Eric Baldwin Doubles Up a Player Jean Pasqualini shoved from the small blind for 165,000. Eric Baldwin called in the big blind. Baldwin tabled the K10 and had live cards versus the AJ of Pasqualini. The flop was nice for Baldwin as it came K62. However, the A on the turn gave Baldwin’s opponent a pair of aces. The 5 on the river was no help to Baldwin. He was down to just 250,000 after the hand.
