"This Is Going to Take Forever"

Such were the words of the EPT Live commentators following this latest non-hand from our final table.

It folded right around to Roberto Romanello in the small blind who limped blind, and Morten Klein checked his option. They then checked down the {J-Clubs} {K-Diamonds} {5-Diamonds} {5-Clubs} {4-Spades} board, and Romanello's {Q-Hearts} {6-Clubs} was good enough to take the tiny pot.

Get the coffees in, it's going to be a late night...

De Vivo Barely Alive

From the button, Francesco De Vivo came in raising to 135,000. He hasn't played more than a couple hands so far today, but Anton Wigg was undeterred. He three-bet from the big blind, making it 330,000 total. He picked the right man to pick on; De Vivo didn't waste much time folding, continuing in his role as the tightest player at the table.

Jesper Petersen Eliminated in Eighth Place (282,800 DKK)

It had been a while since we'd seen any serious action, so everyone was terribly excited when Anton Wigg raised to 92,000 only for Jesper Petersen to shove for 414,000 from the big blind. After a moment, Wigg called.

Wigg: {A-Spades} {4-Clubs}
Petersen: dominating with {A-Clubs} {Q-Spades}

Board: bang! {4-Hearts} {7-Hearts} {3-Spades} {8-Diamonds} {9-Clubs}

Wigg spiked a four, and it was enough to eject Petersen from the tournament in eighth place.

Petersen Really Having Trouble

From the small blind, Jesper Petersen raised to 120,000. Francesco De Vivo moved all in from the big blind, and Petersen was in another tough spot. He once again had a significant chunk of his chips committed to the pot, and he once again didn't seem to want to put the rest in there.

After another few minutes of debate, he let his hand go, slipping back under 450,000.

Gulp.

Klein Shows a Queen

Roberto Romanello raised to 96,000 but Morten Klein made the call out of the small blind.

They made it as far as the turn of the {Q-Spades} {Q-Diamonds} {2-Hearts} {9-Spades} board before Romanello gave it up to a 120,000 bet from Klein. Klein showed him a third queen just to prove that he hadn't been at it, and they played on.

Petersen Folds What?

Morten Klein opened to 110,000, and Jesper Petersen made a reraise to 270,000. Action came back around to Klein, and he thought it over before moving all in with a covering four-bet. Petersen had about a third of his chips committed to the pot already, getting a great price on his remaining money. Despite that, he took just a few seconds to open-muck his {J-Diamonds} {J-Hearts}, to the shock of the media room and the broadcast booth.

"That's the worst play I've seen since I've been doing the broadcast," said commentator and Team PokerStars Pro William Thorson.

Petersen is down around 600,000 now, and the short stack on the table.
