![[user76079]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
The PokerStars.com European Poker Tour Copenhagen experienced a rapid day of poker today. The remaining 24 players were whittled down to eight in a little more than seven hours of play.
The chips from the eliminated players had to go somewhere and the player who benefited the most was Aage Ravn who bagged up 2,450,000 chips, nearly a million clear of second place. His took care of Gerasimos Deres in 13th place when his pocket jacks held against the Swede��s ace-jack. From there he won two sizable pots, without showdown, versus Steve O��Dwyer. Then there was one of the three crucial hands that occurred to find the final table bubble boy.
Ravn went up against Keld Volquardsen in a three-bet pot. Ravn was the aggressor in the hand and picked off a ��donk�� over bet from the Dane to soar past the two million mark. That left Volquardsen with an average stack and he was soon short when he paid off Rasmussen��s river bet and was shown a set. All of a sudden he was all-in with ace-eight, called by Mickey Petersen with ace-queen, and out in 9th for 140,000 DKK.
One of the stories of today was that of what Michael Tureniec could do. It might��ve been mentioned once or twice that the EPT is still looking for its first double champion. The Swede was not only in with a great chance of being the first, but also the first to win two titles from the same stop, and the first to defend a title. It wasn��t to happen though as he fell in 11th place for 110,000 DKK.
There is so much talent still on show though. O��Dwyer has been on a heater the past six months winning more than $1.3million including a second place finish at EPT London for $726,790. Mickey ��mement_mori�� Petersen is an online phenomenon and as is hoping to make his mark in the live arena tomorrow representing Team PokerStars Online. Team PokerStars Pro Pierre Neuville has a second place to his name on an EPT and to win tomorrow will make his dreams come true.
Here��s the complete line-up:
| Seat | Name | Chips |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Bjarke Hansen | 1,497,000 |
| 2 | Mickey Petersen | 1,205,000 |
| 3 | Steve O'Dwyer | 453,000 |
| 4 | Spencer Hudson | 447,000 |

| 6 | Pierre Neuville | 908,000 |
