3:00 pm: At the beginning of the day we had our first victims. Erik Friberg, who had only 7.000 chips left got AJ and moved all-in. But he lost against KT and finished 40th.
Shortly after this the Denish player Joris Jaspers got knocked out.

4:00 pm: Carlo Citrone is the bubbly boy! He loses against the Malaysian player Vijayan Nagarajan, after a preflop all-in with AQ against AK.

4:40 pm: Florian Langmann now has 165,000 chips. After he was able to build his stack slowly he got T9s, a straight and a lot of chips.

7:30 pm: Florian has 147,000 chips. 20 players are left in the tournament. At the moment the tournament is on break - also poker players have to eat something.

8:00 pm: The tournament goes on. Official chip count: Florian has 159,400 chips and is third at the featured table.

8:45 pm: Florian collects a lot of chips but loses a preflop all-in and a 160,000 chip pot. One player raises, Roland de Wolfe calls and Florian makes a squeze play from the Big Blind and pushes his A7s all-in. Roland de Wolfe needed a long time to make a decision and finally called with KQo. Florians commentary: "How can you call that?" But on the flop appears a queen and de Wolfe gets some chips from Florian.

9:30 pm: Florian moves his 88,000 chips all-in with JT. He gets a call from Lellouche with AKo and the board is 2 3 4 5 9 which means Florian doubles up with a flush.

10:10 pm: Florian knocks Chris Moneymaker out of the tournament! The board shows 6T4J - Chris moves all-In. Florian calls - immediately. Both players reveal their cards. Chris shows 98 for an open ended straight draw, which Langmann beats with AT second pair top kicker plus flush draw. A good call from the German champion. Everyone is waiting for the river card: 5! No help for Chris and Florian hits his flush.

Meanwhile also Roland de Wolfe is out of the tournament. 16 players are remaining and at the moment the seats for the two final tables are determined.

1:15 am: Florian 'Morgoth' Langmann is chipleader of the EPT London! He has a huge chiplead with 835.000 chips. During the course of the tournement he also busted Phidias Georgiou from Cyprus. Georgiou moved all-in with KQ on a Q9T board but Florian called and won the hand with AQ.
