PokerStars.com EPT Copenhagen Live Ticker

The tables are already starting to be breaked, and right now we have MarkusOwnH seated in position on Bokkie! None of them have been playing any pots so far though.

I also catched up with VojtaR and got a few words with him. He told me that there had been a lot of action at the table so far, and he also has Jonny Lodden 3 seats to his left. He had lost one pot so far, and is down to 135k, wich however is a stack of considerable size!

Another interesting table is the one where the two PokerStars Pros JP Kelly and Vadim Markushenko is sitting right next to each other!

Good luck, gents!

VojtaR is putting pressure on Jonny Lodden!

Its folded to VojtaR in MP2, and he raises it up to 2 500, (btw, the blinds are 500/1 000, not 600 / 1 200).

Jonny Lodden in BU 3-bets up to 6 300, and its back to VojtaR, who doesnt think for long before he picks up 16 500 and puts it out. Lodden is thinking for a while, and puts out 32800.
Again, after just about 30 seconds, VojtaR takes back his chips and raises again, this time up to 54 000. This time Jonny Lodden goes in to tank before he finally mucks his cards!

WP VojtaR!

Also, Thorsten77 is up a couple of thousand more, to 28k.

Bokkie is getting active!

When I arrived to the table, he was just calling a 3 500 bet from MP on the flop of 6♦ Q♥ 6:spade. Bokkie was in BB.
They both checked on the turn of J♠, and on the river of 2♦ Bokkie once again checked, and MP bet out 4 500, Bokkie made a check-raise to 10 500, and MP called. Unfortunatelly, as Bokkie turned over 44, MP flipped his KQ to take down the pot.

Just the hand after, the same player raised it up to 2 500 UTG+1, and Bokkie makes it 8 400 from the small blind, MarkusOwnH in BB folded and it was back at UTG+1 who also folded. Smallish pot to Bokkie.

And the hand after that it was on again. Bokkie on the BU raised to 2 500, the guy in the BB calls after MarkusOwnH folded this time as well. The flop comes: 6♥ 9♥ K♠.
BB bets out 2 500 on that flop, and Bokkie makes the call to see the turn of 2♥. This time the guy in BB makes it 7 100, and Bokkie once again has to fold.

He is now just over 40k

VojtaR bluffs

I come to his table just as VojtaR bets out 20k on the river, on a A-high board. His opponent calls quickly, to take down the pot with a pair of aces. VojtaR shows J9 for a complete bluff. He is now at 135k again.

135k?

Correct!

The players are on a break, and I just spoke to Bokkie about the 44-hand. He says he regrets that he didnt raise bigger on the river. he says with that board, he thinks his opponent would have folded if he would have made it between 14-15k instead of just over 10k.

Both him and Markus are sitting with stacks of around 45k at the moment.

Thorsten had left his seat for the break, but from what I could see, he had been accumulating a bit more of chips, and is now up to over 40k!

We are back again, now with blinds and antes of 600/1 200/100.

Our cameragirl just arrived as well, so we will be back with some photos for you shortly!

Hi guys, do you have some news about Pino Castagna, the man with black&green sweatshirt?

Our coach GoMore21has picked up a couple of pots and is now up to 67k! Good job!

I talked to Thorsten77, and he sure is up to 42k. He shoved AJ form BU and a short stack in SB called with A8 and did not get any help from the board. Way to go!

Also, VojtaR is now at another table, his table was breaked just as I was passing his table on my way back to the media room. I will get on my feets again and find out where he is sitting now.

Vojtar on the same table as Jonny Lodden, just before he was moved:

VojtarR just busted one player, with a 3-outer!

It was allin preflop, and his opponent held AK, while VojtaR had AQ. a Q on the board was the perfect card for VojtaR, and he is now up over 150k again.

He told me he was happy to change table, since the other one was very tough, but he is now at the same table as Anette Obrestad instead.

Our players chip counts:
Thorsten77: 45k
Bokkie: 50k
MarkusOwnH: 40k
GoMore21: 50k

Some other chip counts:
Anette Obrestad: 85k
Jake Cody: 30k
Juha Helppi: 55k
Peter Eastgate: 95k

Hi Grindithard, how are the PokerStrategy Team players feelings?

I cant find him in todays player list, so he possibly busted yesterday.

I made sure some of the players met each other, and they do chat in the breaks and ask me about the other players stacks, so I think the team spirit is strong!

Its me and a girl taking photos who is here to do the coverage.

EDIT: Misread the first question. To answer what you actually asked, they seem to be in good courage, and enjoying the day so far!

Also, it seems like Simon1989 is going to play the side event today, with a buy in of DKK 15 000. Will try to get updates from him as well during the night. I think play starts at 18:00 CET.

Let's meet some of our players

GoMore21

VojtaR

More are coming!

Ty for the info, sick having him out

You both are doing a very good job!

Seems like both GoMore21 and MarkusOwnH is bust, none of them are anywhere to be found in the card room. How ever it is not confirmed yet. I will do my best to find out what has happened.

Thank you very much!

Still no sight of GoMore21 or MarkusOwnH! As soon as I run in to them I will try to get a comment.

The players are now again on a 10 minute break, and the chip count of our remaining players are as follows:

Thorsten77: 33 500
Bokkie: 53k
VojtaR: 163k

After the break the blinds will be 800/1 600, with 200 ante. There are 179 players left, of the 264 entering the day, and the average stack is just over 75k.
