Alex Dovzhenko | Busted |
During the opening levels Alex Dovzhenko has been by far the most active player at the table. He's been opening with consistency and has two eliminations to his credit.
Vincent Van Der Fluit has also been mixing it up but Damien Lhommeau has been picking his spots well. Charles Tonne, the wire-to-wire chip leader, has been fairly quiet and his stack has slipped a bit.
Tristan Wade is a bit handcuffed with his short stack but the WSOP bracelet winner has won the pots he's played. He's played his short stack well this afternoon.
Damien Lhommeau opened for 55,000 and Charles Tonne called on the button. The blinds released and the flop came . Lhommeau check-called 70,000 to see the turn and then folded when Tonne bet 150,000.
