On a

board, it appeared as though Anders Willemoes Larsen had come over the top of Marcel Luske's leading bet of 4,000 for around 18,000.

Luske clearly didn't like the situation, but deemed there to be enough in the pot to make the call with {K-Diamonds}

. Larsen had his nose in front with {10-Clubs}

, but couldn't avoid the mountain of outs, one of which appeared in the form of the {2-Diamonds}

.

Larsen shrugged his shoulders and departed without so much as a murmur.

Buhmann Takes One Down

An interesting hand took place on table three with Joseph Buhmann leading out for 6,000 on a {6-Clubs}

flop, only to be check-raised to 15,400 by Nicholas van der Marel in the big blind. Buhmann, as calculated as ever, deliberated carefully over his next move before making the call.

With both players checking the {A-Spades}

turn, van der Marel checked the {J-Diamonds}

river allowing Buhmann to bet out 17,000. Without too much hesitation, van der Marel matched the bet, but soon mucked his cards upon being shown {A-Clubs}

.

Fast Start from Vos

There was a slight hold up while Mark Vos, with assistance from a member of staff, reconstructed his monster stack, but eventually the starting whistle sounded.

In fact, it was Vos who kicked off the action, raising to 3,400 from UTG before he'd even finished stacking his chips. With the rest of the players folding, Vos showed {A-Clubs}

, perhaps eager to let the table know that he wasn't messing around.

On the very next hand, Nik Lackovic made it 3,400 from late(ish) position, but folded to a reraise to 14,800 from Runnar Lindepuu in the small blind.
