19-year-old Andreas Sarling is playing his first international tournament and he is making quite an impression at the PokerStars EPT German Open. Yesterday he was among the chip leaders halfway through the day, before sliding back a little. After the 12th level today he was down to 16,000. He then doubled up twice and is now back at 61,000. First he doubled up with {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

against

{A-Clubs}

{7-Spades}

, and then two minutes ago he doubled up again, getting all his chips in the pot holding {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{9-Hearts}

against his opponent's {K-Clubs}

{K-Clubs}

{J-Clubs}

.

Making it to the money in his first tourmanent would be a great achievment, but the youngster aims for even higher ground. "I can't slow down now. I am aiming for the final table," says Sarling.
