Los Perking Up

[user46392]
[user46392]
The lack of sleep, the surfeit of alcohol in his system and the early setback after doubling up Simon Borg -- none of these things seem to be preventing Fedor Los from getting jiggy with his chips.

Marc Naalden raised to 16,000 from the button, and Los very quietly reraised to either 75,000 or all in -- either way, a large stack of blue 5,000 chips made their way across the line and left Naalden with a decision to make. He opted to fold. With an earnest expression, Los showed him the {A-Clubs}.

Cagey Play

We haven't witnessed an abundance of big pots since kick-off, with most hands drawing to a conclusion before a flop is dealt.

Mark Vos is, inevitably, dominating proceedings by raising most hands, but I did spot Marc Naalden take a set of blinds, as well as Jan Hlobil, who pushed all in from the button.

"Would you have still pushed if I'd raised?" asked Vos. "Yeah," replied Hlobil with a snigger.

Drum roll please, maestro...

The orange 10,000 chips have been brought into play, but only several have been handed out, meaning that Mark Vos still has more chips than the Walkers' factory.

No Flops Here

Players who have raised preflop to take down the blinds only:

- Joey Buhmann, twice in a row

- Mark Vos, under the gun

- Runnar Lindepuu, under the gun to steal a muttering Mark Vos' big blind

Borg Not Terminated

The somewhat groggy Fedor Los raised under the gun, and to his immediate left Simon Borg reraised all in for 75,000. It folded around back to Los, who very quietly called.

Los: {A-Clubs} {Q-Diamonds}
Borg: {A-Spades} {K-Clubs}

Friends of either Borg or Los suddely gathered around the table and started shouting, "One time!" and jumping up and down.

Board: {4-Diamonds} {A-Hearts} {3-Hearts} {9-Spades} {K-Diamonds}

Borg doubles up to 150,000.

First Blood

[user4144]

Like Rambo roaring through the jungle, Mark Vos is fearless and ready to strike at any given moment. Not surprisingly, that given moment came on the very first hand where he raised it up to 9,100 preflop and was called by Farhad Kia who defended from the big blind.

On the {8-Spades}{J-Spades}{7-Clubs} flop, Kia checked, Vos bet 12,300, and Kia called.

The {4-Clubs} turn saw a similar pattern with two key differences: Vos bet 35,000, and this time, Kia released his hand.

First blood to the Aussie.

A Gargantuan Masterpiece

Words I hear often, but today it's Mark Vos who has been the recipient of this compliment. Obviously, there was a slight delay before 'shuffle up and deal' was announced, but this was due to Vos who spent a good five minutes gathering up his chips. Eventually, like a craftsman fine-tuning his work, the resident Aussie finally completed his masterpiece - albeit a gargantuan one that is reminiscent of Greg Raymer's stack in the 2004 WSOP Main Event final.

"Can we get a bigger table?" requested Farhad Kia with a smile.

Good Night for Los

[user46392]

Rumour has it that young Fedor Los, just 19 years old and playing his first major final table, may be somewhat the worse for wear after playing cash in the casino and drinking until noon today -- he's had three hours' sleep and a whole load of booze. The best of luck to him from the extremely impressed blogging team.
