De Vivo Doubles While Richard Loth is Down to Shrapnel

Francesco de Vivo raised, and in the small blind Richard Loth decided he was going to make his stand. He announced all in. De Vivo, outchipped by just 45,000, called all in. Showdown!

Loth: {6-Clubs} {6-Hearts}
De Vivo: {A-Clubs} {J-Diamonds}

Board: {K-Spades} {8-Diamonds} {A-Spades} {7-Hearts} {8-Clubs}

The ace came in the door leaving Loth drawing very thin, and following the blank turn and river, the last Dane standing was reduced to just 45,000 - less than one big blind.

Anton Wigg - 5,035,000
Yorane Kerignard - 3,085,000
Morten Klein - 2,065,000

Send Some Coffee to the Final Table

We are sorry to say that since the exit of Mr. Romanello, the pace of play has reverted to it's earlier sluggishness. We hope to be proved wrong, but we are getting geared up for an extremely late night here in Copenhagen.

Roberto Romanello Eliminated in 6th Place (570,000 DKK)

Roberto Romanello raised two hands in a row. The first time his raise got through. He showed pocket eights. The second time though, Anton Wigg reraised to 385,000. Romanello thought about it briefly, and then announced all in. Insta-call.

Romanello: at it, but still kind of live with {8-Hearts} {9-Hearts}
Wigg: {A-Spades} {A-Hearts}

Board: an exciting but no-cigar {6-Hearts} {K-Hearts} {9-Clubs} {6-Clubs} {10-Spades}

Romanello looked as though he might cry, and Wigg is now a massive chip leader on 4.975 million, almost twice the stack of current second-placer Yorane Kerignard.

Romanello Clawing Back

Anton Wigg raised from the button and Roberto Romanello called in the big blind to see a {7-Diamonds} {2-Diamonds} {5-Diamonds} flop.

Romanello check-called 165,000 from Wigg on the flop and the two players proceeded to check down the {5-Hearts} turn and {7-Spades} river. Romanello turned over {A-Hearts} {9-Spades} for ace-high to go with the two pairs on the board, and as Wigg could only manage king-high, Romanello took the pot and further evened the stacks.

Morten Guldhammer Eliminated in 7th Place (425,000 DKK)

Under the gun, Morten Guldhammer opened the pot to 125,000. When the action came around the table to Yorane Kerignard's big blind, he announced a reraise to 400,000 straight. Guldhammer then moved all in, and the call came quickly.

Showdown
Guldhammer: {A-Diamonds} {K-Diamonds}
Kerignard: {Q-Clubs} {Q-Diamonds}

It was an unavoidable race for Guldhammer, needing to find his overcards to stay alive. The dealer would not oblige him, though. The board ran {6-Spades} {2-Diamonds} {5-Spades} {J-Clubs} {Q-Hearts}, and Kerignard's set of queens sends Guldhammer to the exit in 7th.

After a near-manic several days of poker, Morten Guldhammer's tournament has ended in rather standard fashion. He'll take 425,000 DKK from his $1 investment. Not too shabby.

Loth Doubles Through Romanello

Blind on blind, Richard Loth bet out on the turn and river of the {Q-Hearts} {5-Spades} {2-Diamonds} {8-Clubs} {Q-Spades} board but then was rather unwilling to turn his hand over at the end. Eventually he was persuaded to turn over {A-Spades} {4-Diamonds} for ace-high, but Roberto Romanello flipped {J-Hearts} {5-Clubs} for two pair and took the pot.

The very next hand, it folded around to Loth on the button and he announced all in for his last 710,000. Romanello, now in the small blind, made the call.

Loth: {A-Diamonds} {J-Clubs}
Romanello: dominating with {A-Clubs} {Q-Clubs}

Board: {4-Spades} {J-Diamonds} {K-Spades} {K-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds}

Loth got lucky and spiked a jack, and it held to double him up to around 1.5 million. Romanello was left with a similar amount. We are still seven, and it is still anyone's game.
