Biggest Pot of the Tournament Ends in a Chop

[user25067]
[user25067]
Eric Liu opened for 100,000, Michael Tureniec reraised to 312,000, Liu moved all in and Tureniec called.

Tureniec {A-Clubs} {K-Clubs}
Liu {A-Diamonds} {K-Spades}

The flop was a sweat-tastic {J-Clubs} {3-Clubs} {3-Spades}, leaving Tureniec freerolling with his flush draw and Liu's stomach churning. The turn was the {K-Hearts} and much to Liu's relief, the river fell the {Q-Spades}. The two men split the pot.

"Wow, that was half the chips in play!" exclaimed Tureniec.

"That flop just killed me," replied Liu.

Runner Runner Broadway

Nothing is worse than being ahead and losing to running cards that gives your opponent a better hand. Of course, if you are Michael Martin that is one instant which you love. He was ahead on the flop, behind on the turn - but that same card which put Strassmann in the lead also gave Martin a gutshot. And then the river was kind to Martin. The shortstack doubled up. Again.

Michael Martin Doubles Through Johannes Strassmann

Michael Martin moved all in from the button and Johannes Strassmann called.

Martin {A-Diamonds} {Q-Clubs}
Strassmann {K-Spades} {J-Clubs}

The flop was safe enough for Martin, coming down {10-Clubs} {8-Diamonds} {2-Spades}. The {K-Diamonds} turned, however, giving the lead to Strassmann. Saving Martin's tournament life, though was the {J-Spades} on the river, making him a Broadway straight and doubling him up to 666,000. Strassmann was left with 466,000.

Philippe D'Auteuil raised to 100,000, Michael Tureniec moved all in and D'Auteuil elected to pass.

Two hands later, Johannes Strassmann opened for 100,000 and this time it was D'Auteuil's turn to push, putting his head down on the table after doing so. Strassmann gave it up, though and D'Auteuil won the pot.

Brandon Schaefer Sighting

[user24788]
[user24788]
2005 EPT Deauville Champion Brandon Schaefer is on the rail sweating his buddy Michael Martin. Brandon flew in from the States last night along with Martin's mother and girlfriend. Martin's mother said that her son's girlfriend is so nervous that she might have to leave because she's getting sick! Luckily, Michael Martin is cool as a cat and can hold his cookies, especially under the bright lights of the final table.

Liu Wielding His Big Stack

[user25067]
While many of his opponents are down to all-in or fold decisions, Eric Liu has begun to run over the table with his big stack, making frequent preflop raises and three-bets that are going uncalled.

In his last hand, Alan Smurfit opened for 80,000 and Liu flat-called. The flop {6-Spades} {5-Diamonds} {5-Hearts}. Smurfit checked, and Liu slid out a 100,000 bet. The Irishman gave it up and Liu took down another pot.

EPT hostess Kara Scott interviewed Philippe D'Auteuil's buddies from Canada who are on the rail sweating him. They mentioned that now matter what, they were going out to celebrate tonight. Of course, if Philippe D'Auteuil wins, they will have something extra special to celebrate.

"We will drink a lot," is what one of Philippe D'Auteuil's friends explained.
