Tobias Reven?s open jammed for around 150,000 and Aleksander Lammas called also going all-in.
Reven?s sighed after the call and his initial thoughts were confirmed after he turned over 
and his opponent turned over 
.
He started to get up out of his seat after Lammas hit a set on the 
flop. The 
on the turn and the 
on the river completed the board and Reven?s was a couple of seats at the table.
Lammas, who was a happy vocal player yesterday, began singing about a double up before he called Reven?s back to his seat.
"You had me covered," said Lammas.
Sure enough, after the dealer counted out the chips and Reven?s still had a handful remaining.
Meanwhile, at the same time on other tables, Asmund G?rstad was eliminated in 39th place followed by Niklas Vakkuri in 38th place. Both players will walk away with the minimum cash of €1,155.

Many of the Main Event players are already in their seats. Dealers have been instructed that players can unbag chips once there are two or more players seated at the table.
Kristoffer Skolem is in the driver's seat with the chip lead heading into the final day of play. The Norwegian not only won one seat to the Coolbet Open Main Event but two at Coolbet Poker.
Skolem has over $200,000 in cashes and is looking to add to it in a big way today with the top prize slated for €50,100. He is no stranger to winning big as in April 2017, he shipped the Norwegians Open €800 Main Event for a whopping €154,615.
