2012 World Poker Tour Copenhagen Day 3: Barshak Leads Final Two Tables 0001

Season XI of the World Poker Tour continued on Thursday with Day 3 of the WPT Copenhagen Main Event. After four levels and change, Stanislav Barshak leads the remaining 18 players with 830,000 chips. Also still alive are Day 2 chip leader Frei Dilling Kjaer, Jimmy Jonsson, Robin Ylitalo, Peter Jepson, and Steve O��Dwyer.

En route to the chip lead, Barshak eliminated Jesper Mertz. Mertz flopped a set of threes, but was dominated by Barshak��s flopped set of nines. The turn and river were both bricks, and Barshak added to his stack. With a win, Barshak would bank the largest score of his live tournament career �� his largest score do date is $57,031 for finishing 11th in Event #57: $10,000 No Limit Hold��em �� Six Handed at the 2012 World Series of Poker.

The bubble burst during Level 15, when Ramaneetharan Selvanajagam was eliminated by Jan Djerberg. Selvanajagam was all in and at risk holding J?10?, which actually dominated Djerberg��s J?5?, but the board ran out Q?3?3?6?��5?!

Prior to the bubble bursting there were a handful of eliminations, including Jenny Svensson, Jonas Klausen, and Niko Mykkonen. Klausen was all in preflop holding A?J?, which was dominated by Djerberg��s A?K?. Klausen found no help on the flop, turn, or river, and was eliminated.

Sergii Baranov, who recently finished runner-up in the 2012 World Series of Poker Europe Main Event and was one of the leaders entering the day, busted shortly after the bubble burst. With the blinds at 2,000/4,000/500, Ylitalo opened to 8,000, Bircan Cakar, three-bet to 27,000, and Baranov cold-called. Ylitalo called as well, and the flop came down Kx10x4x. Ylitalo checked, Cakar fired 68,000, and Baranov moved all in. Ylitalo folded, but Cakar called.

Cakar held two tens for a set, Baranov held AxKx for a pair of kings, and Cakar held, eliminating Baranov from the competition.

O��Dwyer, the winner of a recent WPT National Series Denmark event, survived the day, but is one of the short stacks. He and Philip Jacobsen were heads up on a board of K?9?2?4?, and O��Dwyer check-called a bet of 22,000. The 3? completed the board, and O��Dwyer checked again. Jacobsen fired 80,000, and O��Dwyer called. Jacobsen tabled 6?5? for a flush, O��Dwyer mucked, and O��Dwyer will enter Day 4 second-to-last in chips.

Play ended on Thursday when Alexander Petersen was eliminated in 19th place. Petersen was all in preflop holding pocket sevens, and was crushed by Jacobsen��s pocket kings. The kings held, and Petersen earned $9,221 for his efforts.
