This game's a little mad isn't it? Jonathan Schuman was the hot beneficiary of a double up in a cooler.

Bob Janssens limped in from the button and Rodrigo Strong called but Jonathan Schuman shoved for 4,220,000 from the large blind. Janssens then immediately shoved behind and that folded out Strong.

Schuman: J♠J♣Janssens: A♥A♠

Sometimes a deal can actually make play tighter but not in this occasion. At the first hand after the deal we had a 14,760,000 chip pot.

Schuman's getting busy

4:05pm: Family potsLevel 30 - Blinds 60,000/120,000 (20,000 ante)

There has been a lot of family pots. Within the just one that went to showdown Rodrigo Strong was the pre-flop aggressor, making it 300,000 to move at the button. It checked all of the method to the river of a T♣9♠8♦3♣6♥ board at which point Strong bet 400,000. Bob Janssens looked him up with 4♦3♦ and bested the Brazilian's A♠4♣.

3:55pm: Alexander Voytko eliminated in fourth place (€48,610)Level 30 - Blinds 60,000/120,000 (20,000 ante)

And then there have been three.

The action folded around to Rodrigo Strong within the small blind and he checked out Alexander Voytko's stack, then to the clock, back to his opponent before he moved all-in. Voytko took one have a look at his cards and called all-in for roughly 1.8million.

Strong: K♥Q♥Voytko: 9♥9♠

The board ran Q♣T♣4♥2♦A♦ to make the Brazilian a couple and put him back as much as 9.7 million. Voytko didn't say a word as he got up from his seat and shook the rest players' hands. It was a little eerie but respectful, like an individual leaving a wake where nothing more can also be said to the relatives. -- MC

Rodrigo Strong is utilising his position as chip leader to perfection by forcing the shorter stacks to make tough decisions. Jonathan Schuman opened to 260,000 from the button and was flat called by Bob Janssens. 

Strong took a glance at their stacks after which raised it as much as 780,000. Both players folded. Schuman is right down to about 1,950,000 now and is the shortest of the four stacks. Strong has roughly 10,000,000, Janssens around 6,800,000 and Alexander Voytko about 2,200,000. --NW

3:20pm: Milos Skrbic eliminated in fifth place (€38,320)Level 30 - Blinds 60,000/120,000 (20,000 ante)

Oh how a tournament can change over the process two hands.

Milos Skrbic, who was the player who changed his mind over the deal, doubled up in a single hand after which busted the very next hand. Bob Janssens, lost the chip lead and Rodrigo Strong reclaimed the dominant position he had before.

The action folded around to Janssens within the small blind and he set Skrbic all-in for his last 2,190,000. Call.

Janssens: K♣J♥Skrbic: A♠T♣

The board ran 9♥J♦A♥4♦5♠. Skrbic offered to take a look at numbers after that but all his opponents ignored his request.

Moments later that did not matter. Skrbic limped in from the small blind after which moved all-in after Rodrigo Strong raised to 400,000 from the massive blind. Snap call. Skrbic had aces the last time these two battled like this within the blinds; the shoe was at the other foot this time though.

Ozimek - sixth place

2:10pm: Alexander Voytko doubles through Rodrigo StrongLevel 29 - Blinds 50,000/100,000 (10,000 ante)

For the primary time because the end of Day 2 Rodrigo Strong is not the chip leader of this tournament, he's been toppled because he just doubled up Alexander Voytko.

In the hand in question Strong raised to 200,000 with 9♦9♠, Voytko moved all-in for 2,190,000 with T♦T♠ and robust quickly called the shove.

A 4♣2♦2♠6♠5♦ board kept Voytko in front and he doubled to 4,550,000, while Strong is all the way down to 4,600,000. Bob Janssens, who has just over 5,000,000 is now the chip leader. --NW

2:05pm: Janssens above five millionLevel 29 - Blinds 50,000/100,000 (10,000 ante)

Bob Janssens is putting some daylight between himself and the remaining as he's comfortably the second one biggest stack now after winning a hand against Alexander Voytko. Pre-flop Janssens opened to 210,000 and Voytko called out of the massive blind.

The 8♦T♦4♠ flop checked through and the 9♠ fell on fourth street. Voytko bet 250,000, call from Janssens. The K♥ completed the board and Voytko fired again, this time 450,000 and again Janssens made the call.

The Israeli tapped the table to suggest Janssens had made an excellent call and showed Q♥6♥. Unsurprisingly Janssens could top queen high and he opened K♣J♠ to assert the pot. He's as much as 5,100,000 now whilst Voytko drops to 2,200,000. --NW

1:55pm: Armin Zoike eliminated in seventh place (€20,175)Level 28 - Blinds 40,000/80,000 (10,000 ante)

Armin Zoike hoped for the aces his opponents were getting, however the best the poker gods had on offer was kings they usually couldn't hold, so he was sent to the rail in seventh.

Bob Janssens opened to 160,000 from the cutoff after which called after his German opponent shoved for 960,000 from the following seat.

Janssens: Q♦J♦Zoike: K♥K♠

The board ran Q♣4♦7♥Q♥2♣ to make the Dutchman trips. Zoike left to a round of applause whereas Janssens spread himself and his 4.6 million stack out somewhat. --MC

Zoike - seventh place

1:35pm: Huge hand! Strong gets some backLevel 28 - Blinds 40,000/80,000 (10,000 ante)

Rodrigo Strong is back as much as 7,000,000 after winning a large pot against Michal Ozimek. It was a blind on blind battle with Strong raising to 240,000 and Ozimek calling. At the 6♥3♦9♦ flop Strong checked, Ozimek bet 275,000 and powerful went into the tank. He stayed there for thus long that the clock was called and just about once it was he put out the calling chips.

The 8♣ turn card checked through and the 9♠ completed the board. Again Strong checked and Ozimek counted out a corpulent bet of 1,305,000 and slid it into the center. It was an overbet and robust took a while to think about his actions. He got eyes on Ozimek's remaining chips (about 1.7m) after which announced all-in.

Ozimek was not expecting that. He leaned back in his chair and commenced to think in the course of the hand. Much of it was inaudible but I caught snatches of it. "YOU CAN NOT jam 6-7...you don't expect me to fold my hand...all I WILL fold is queen high."

The boys in the midst of their duel

He then apologised to the table for taking goodbye. The 2 players are sat side by side and he turned to Strong and said: "You never shut up normally, you're alleged to be chatting with be right now!"

After just a little more tank time he released his hand. Did Strong have it? We'll never know. After the hand had finished there has been some talk of a €50 bet between a few the players about guessing the 2 hands that the players had. --NW

1:25pm: Every short stack gets aces no less than onceLevel 28 - Blinds 40,000/80,000 (10,000 ante)

The above statement was the quote from Armin Zoike after he witnessed another considered one of his tablemates doubling up with aces, and again through chip leader Rodrigo Strong.

The action folded to Milos Skrbic within the small blind who completed after which snap called all-in for 1.425 million after Strong shoved from the massive blind.

Skrbic: A♥A♣Strong: K♦9♦

The board ran 2♦A♣Q♠5♦6♣ to look the aces delay. Strong dropped right down to 4.6 million. --MC

The before I got aces look

1:10pm: Voytko continues to assemble chipsLevel 28 - Blinds 40,000/80,000 (10,000 ante)

It's been an ideal level to this point for Alexander Voytko as he's won another couple of decent pots to climb to around 2,500,000.

In the primary he re-raised all-in excessive of Armin Zoike's 200,000 chip open. The German had about 1,300,000 back and elected to fold. He's now the quick stack.

A couple of hands later Michal Ozimek made it 160,000 to play but he too folded to aggression from Voytko because the Israeli's three-bet to 500,000 was enough to earn him the pot. --NW

The board ran 6♥2♥5♦9♣6♦ and robust dropped to 6.1 million. --MC

When action reached Bob Janssens within the big blind the Dutchman didn't even ask for a count before moving all-in and Voytko folded.

Ristivojevic: A♣T♠Janssens: 9♦9♠

The J♣6♠5♣J♦4♣ board kept Janssens in front and he's as much as around 3,800,000 whilst Ristivojevic is now on a watching brief as he tries to rail his buddy (Milos Skrbic) to victory. --NW
