Le Jour 2 du Main Event EPT Prague à 5300€ s'est terminé avec la sortie d'un joueur hongrois après une longue période de 45 minutes de main par main, jeudi. Les 231 joueurs qualifiés pour le Jour 3 sont tous assurés de remporter un minimum de 7560€.

Avec un enregistrement permis jusqu'à l'entame de la deuxième journée de compétition, l'affluence du tournoi est montée à 1192 joueurs, un record pour la 10e et dernière édition de ce tournoi. Ils étaient 14 à s'inscrire avec 30 blindes et 605 (dont une quarantaine de Français sur les 93 au départ, ndlr) à s'assoir aux tables de l'Hôtel Hilton Casino de Prague. Il a fallu 6 niveaux de 75 minutes pour que tous les joueurs restants aient le droit à une part du prizepool de 5,7 millions d'euros.

Michael Gathy, Fatima Moreira De Melo, Erwann Pecheux, Jérôme Zerbib, Gilles Huet, Johnny Lodden, Igor Kurganov, Mustapha Kanit, Steven van Zadelhoff, Pierre Morin, Sonny Franco, Anthony Zinno, Eric Joss, Farid Yachou, Theo Jorgensen, Ahmed Fatah, ou encore Imad Derwiche, Sergio Castellucio, Luca Pagano, Roberto Romanello, Connor Drinan, Sylvain Loosli, Ronny Kaiser, Jean-Philippe Rohr, Stephan Fajg, Arnaud Mattern et Tony Dunst ont sauté lors du Jour 2.

Kimmo Kurko, Ludovic Geilich, Dominik Panka, Niall Farrell, Antonin Teisseire, le chipleader du tournoi à la fin du Jour 1 Ronald Morandini, Erik Cajelais, Gabriel Nassif, Sebastian Malec ou Bruno "Kool Shen" Lopes ont aussi rendu les armes avant l'argent. Charlie Carrel a lui vu s'interrompre sa série de 8 places payées consécutives !

Attila Valentai bubbles EPT Prague 2016 Main Event

C'est Attila Valentai qui fait la bulle et s'incline en 232e position. Le Hongrois s'incline sur un flip après avoir vu un {k-} en doorcard pour améliorer son {a-}{k-}. Un {8-} rivière a permis à l'Allemand Martin Brandau de faire brelan in-extremis et de soulager le reste de field. Déjà en réussite plus tôt en table télévisée, Brandau avait chatté à tapis couvert en faisant le coup de la veste, il termine la journée avec 210.000 jetons (52bb) alors que Valentai repart les mains vides.

Ludovic Lacay (110bb)), James Akenhead, Alain Goldberg, Benjamin Pollak (102bb), Pierre Calamusa, Martin Kabrhel, Fabrice Soulier, Adrien Allain, Daniel Dvoress, Sergey Lebedev, Vanessa Selbst, David Peters, Juha Helppi, Ludovic Lacay, Romain Lewis ou encore Matas Cimbolas, Joao Vieira, Ivan Deyra, Johan Guilbert et Pablo Gordillo livreront bataille au Jour 3, toujours en course pour la victoire et les 774 600€ promis au vainqueur du dernier EPT de l'histoire.

En lice pour le doublé EPT, le Libanais Nicolas Chouity est en tête du tournoi avec 129 blindes et un tapis supérieur à 600.000 jetons. La route est encore longue puisqu'ils sont 231 dans la course et que le vainqueur possédera plus de 35,7 millions de jetons.

Le Jour 3 débutera à midi, vendredi avec 77 minutes à jouer sur les blindes 2000-4000 (500). L'action est à suivre sur PokerNews et sur le streaming EPT Live. Malgré une moyenne à 40 blindes, l'action devrait être folle d'entrée avec de nombreux joueurs à 6 blindes ou moins et ralentir ensuite grâce aux niveaux de 90 minutes...

Attila Valentai Bubbles, Day 2 Ends With Everyone in the Money

Niveau 15 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
Attila Valentai bubbles EPT Prague 2016 Main Event
Attila Valentai bubbles EPT Prague 2016 Main Event

There were two players all in for their tournament lives holding pocket aces and got them to hold and survived. The bubble broke on a third table, but not without some excitement.

Mike Brandau opened from middle position to 8,000 before Attila Valentai three-bet all in for 40,000 from the cutoff and got a call from Brandau.

Attila Valentai: {A-Spades}{K-Hearts}
Mike Brandau: {8-Clubs}{8-Spades}

Valentai appeared to be safe once a king hit the {k-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{6-Hearts} flop. The {J-Clubs} on the turn was another safe card from Valentai who was only fading two outs. However, the {8-Hearts} spiked the river to send Valentai to the rail on the bubble and send Brandau's stack up to 209,500.

Meanwhile, all remaining players will come back for Day 3 with the knowledge that they have made at least the minimum cash of €7,560.

Selbst Escapes From Pre-Bubble Elimination

Niveau 14 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante
Vanessa Selbst
Vanessa Selbst

After a raise by Aleksey Ponakov and a call by Artur Rudziankov, Vanessa Selbst defended her big blind after having previously lost a big pot. The flop fell {Q-Spades}{7-Spades}{6-Clubs} and Selbst checked. Ponakov continued for 9,000 and Rudziankov called, then Selbst check-raised all in for 24,700.

Ponakov reraised to force a fold from Rudziankov and Selbst was in desperate shape.

Vanessa Selbst: {Q-Clubs}{7-Clubs}
Aleksey Ponakov: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}

The {8-Clubs} turn and {9-Clubs} river however completed a runner runner flush to let Selbst double less than 10 spots away from the money. Rudziankov said "if you just call, I am getting there also, I had ace jack of clubs."

Tony Dunst
Tony Dunst

Tony Dunst got his remaining chips in the middle with {a-}{10-} on a ten-high board but was up against the {k-}{k-} of an opponent in the blinds, who we were told check-called the flop and check-jammed the turn. Dunst didn't catch on the river.

Barbarez Busts to Lykov

Niveau 12 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
Maxim Lykov
Maxim Lykov

Maxim Lykov raised from the hijack and picked up a single caller in Sergej Barbarez on the button. On the {Q-Spades}{J-Clubs}{6-Spades} flop, Lykov continued for 5,500 and Barbarez called before the {2-Hearts} on the turn slowed down the Russian. Lykov checked and Barbarez bet 6,600. Lykov check-raised to 20,000 and Barbarez moved all in for 105,700.

After spending quite some time in the think tank, staring over at his opponent, Lykov called and Barbarez just nodded.

Sergej Barbarez: {A-Diamonds}{J-Spades}
Maxim Lykov: {A-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}

The {7-Hearts} on the river was a blank and Andy Black said "good call" over to Lykov. The Russian replied "not sure, I didn't like to call 106,000 after my bet," while raking in the big pot.

Korotkikh Doubles Big Through Odeen

Niveau 11 : 800/1,600, 200 ante
Mikhail Korotkikh
Mikhail Korotkikh

With around 35,000 in the pot and the turn reading {K-Hearts}{10-Spades}{8-Spades}{9-Spades}, Mikhail Korotkikh moved all in. Jerry Odeen from one seat over asked for a count and the shove of Korotkikh was for double the pot, 72,100 in total.

"Sorry guys, this will take some time," Odeen said and tried to get some information from his opponent. "I have a big big hand," he added and Korotkikh leaned over and said "English, no," prompting laughs from two other Russians at the table.

After half a minute, Korotkikh said "time" and Odeen shook his head. Tournament staff came over and the Russian said "no time, he is my friend," almost hugging Odeen. However, a few minutes later he then indeed called the clock. With 30 seconds left, Odeen called for most of his stack.

Mikhail Korotkikh: {8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}
Jerry Odeen: {K-Hearts}{J-Spades}

"Damn, I thought I was ahead," came from Odeen, who saw the blank {6-Clubs} on the river to drop him back to around starting stack.

Fatima Moreira de Melo Eliminated

Niveau 11 : 800/1,600, 200 ante
Fatima Moreira de Melo
Fatima Moreira de Melo

PokerStars Team SportStar Fatima Moreira de Melo was one of the latest casualties of the tournament. With still about 22 big blinds, both Moreira de Melo and her opponent checked on a {q-}{q-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} flop. She led out for a bet of 3,000 on the {3-Diamonds} turn and her opponent shoved. The former Dutch field hockey player turned over {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts} and mistakenly thought she was just fading a diamond for the flush after her opponent turned over {a-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}.

The {7-Spades} on the river was of no help to Moreira de Melo and only then after the chips were being sent to her opponent did she realize her opponent also had a queen in his hand as well along with a higher kicker. While Moreira de Melo had her opponent covered, she was left with just two big blinds and left the tournament room a hand or two later and was debating in the lobby about whether or not to enter one of the day's later events.

Charlie Carrel Eliminated

Charlie Carrel (From Super High Roller Final Table)
Charlie Carrel (From Super High Roller Final Table)

As we just reported, Charlie Carrel's stack was down to four-digits. He now is free to join the impromptu $25,500 EPT Single-Day High Roller II that wasn't originally on the schedule and just added today after Steve O'Dwyer pitched the idea yesterday.

Carrel shoved for about 7,000 with ace-four suited and was called by ace-eight suited. His hand wasn't able to improve enough for the win or the chop, and he is one of the latest batch of casualties on Day 2.

Cimbolas Promises Big Pot; Folds Jacks as Gathy Busts

Niveau 9 : 500/1,000, 100 ante
Matas Cimbolas
Matas Cimbolas

Matas Cimbolas raised to 2,500 and said in table chat "I promise you a big pot," then short stack and three-time WSOP bracelet winner Michael Gathy moved all in. Attila Valentai in the big blind asked for a count and the shove of Gathy was for 17,500. Valentai called and so did Cimbolas.

On the {7-Spades}{6-Clubs}{6-Spades} flop, Valentai bet 13,500 and Cimbolas gave it some thought. "This doesn't make any sense," the Lithuanian said and folded {J-Diamonds}{J-Hearts} face up.

Michael Gathy: {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}
Attila Valentai: {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs}

Cimbolas patted himself on the shoulder for the good fold, and the {2-Spades} turn and {7-Hearts} river were both blanks to eliminate Gathy. "I promised you a big pot, but we messed up," Cimbolas added to Valentai.
