The tournament is still on pause as the staff search for Alem Shah.
Haven't heard of him? There's no reason why you should have if you live outside the Netherlands. It turns out that the reason he is now sponsored is that he won a TV show in Holland, some kind of Dutch poker championships. 100 tournaments were run in bars across the Netherlands, with 15,000 amateur players involved. The final five played it out on Dutch TV, and de Korver was the eventual winner. He is apparently also an amateur, and by all accounts not a particularly wealthy man, so this represents a really, really big deal for him. Looks like we'll be hearing a lot more from Mr de Korver in the future, though.

Board:
Annette doubled to 1,800,000.
Morozov got up to leave, but sat back down again when the dealer told him he had change. He found himself possessor of the princely sum of, we believe, 42,000 -- less than a big blind. In a particularly bad beat, that moment was chosen to redraw for the final two tables and race off the 1,000 chips, so he's now down to 40,000.

, and spiked a king on the river of the 
board.Once again, he jumped up, this time shouting, "YES! Woo-hoo!" and then something which PokerNews.nl's own Remko informed me translates directly as, "Delicious delicious delicious."
He has perhaps 1,700,000 now, while Shah is down to 420,000.
