Level 31
: 60,000/120,000, 20,000 ante
Jude Ainsworth and John O'Shea were among a party of six Irish players who went out on the town in Prague. After a few beers and a game of open-faced Chinese poker, they were booking high stakes boxing matches between each other. PokerStars Blog hears a cautionary tale of ale, Chinese and potential pugilism.
Level 31
: 60,000/120,000, 20,000 ante
Sotirios Koutoupas is within touching distance of the chip lead after winning another pot.
Koutoupas opened and Ramzi Jelassi defended with a call. Both players checked the 
flop, but Jelassi lead out with a 300,000 bet upon the arrival of the 
turn. Koutoupas called and it was off to the 
river. Both players checked again.
Jelassi showed 
but he lost out to the 
of his Greek opponent.
A huge non showdown pot played out on the first hand of heads up play.
Ramzi Jelassi three-bet a button open from Sotirios Koutoupas and was called en route to a 
flop.
Jelassi continued for 575,000 and called when Koutoupas raised to 1,400,000. The turn came 
and Jelassi check-called a 2,250,000 bet before he checked on the 
river to face a shove worth 3,850,000. The Swede thought for a minute and elected to fold.

The man who refused to deal when three-handed, turning down a guaranteed payout of €415,000 had just been eliminated in third place and will leave Prague with €310,000.
Sotirios Koutoupas opened to 240,000 on the button, David Boyaciyan three-bet to 560,000 and Ramzi Jelassi cold four-bet to 1,225,000. Koutoupas folded and Boyaciyan made the unconventional play of calling.
The dealer put out the 
flop and Boyaciyan shipped in his stack and Jelassi wasted little time in calling!
Boyaciyan: 
Jelassi: 
Boyaciyan was way in front with his two pair, but the 
gave Jelassi outs to the flush to go with his over cards. The dealer burned a card before putting the flush completing 
onto the river, busting Boyaciyan and sending the tournament into heads-up.
