Jose Espinoza had already won a small pot at the beginning of the day, but has now been eliminated by Team PokerStars Pro Johnny Lodden. Lodden opened for 6,500 and called Espinoza's shove from the big blind for about 50,000. Lodden had the {A-Hearts}{Q-Spades} and was up against Espinoza's {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}. The board came {A-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} and Espinoza was eliminated.

Lodden is on the verge 17th EPT cash. He's made several deep runs, but never won one. Will this be the one?

He's amassed €819,935 in EPT cashes, which ranks him 82nd on the all time EPT Money List. He has $2,023,039 in life time tournament winnings, making him 459th on the All Time Money List. He cashed here three times allready, and his biggest score was in Monte Carlo as well. Last year he finished 3rd for €467,000 right at the Grand Final.
