Jour 2 terminé
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 !
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 en doorcard pour améliorer son
. Un
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...

With the bubble burst, all players bagged up their chips and will come back tomorrow with 1:11:06 left in level 15. Everyone has €7,560 guaranteed for their efforts and five levels of 90 minutes each will cut down the field considerably. A selection of chip counts and the recap of today's action will be available shortly.
Play resumes at noon local time on Friday, the full chip counts and redraw will be published when PokerNews receives them.
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:
Mike Brandau:
Valentai appeared to be safe once a king hit the flop. The
on the turn was another safe card from Valentai who was only fading two outs. However, the
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.

At the same time as the Martin Kabrhel split pot, another table had an all in and a call.
Stefan Fabian had limped the button and Dmitrii Deviatov moved all in from the big blind. Fabian snap-called for 96,100 and the cards were tabled.

A player in early position opened to 6,500, and Martin Kabrhel tanked awhile in the small blind. He was warned by a tournament official to speed up his play or he'd have an automatic clock, something Kabrhel took exception to. He made it 26,100 eventually. Adrien Allain was in the big blind and cold four-bet to 20,000. Kabrhel called after the opener mucked. The two saw flop, and Kabrhel checked. Allain bet 20,000 and Kabrhel called. Both checked the turn for a final board of
. Kabrhel thought about three or four minutes and bet 27,500 shortly after Allain called a clock. Allain wasted little time before jamming. Kabrhel immediately called off his last 20,000 or so.
After another table's showdown was finished, each player tabled his cards.
Allain:
Kabrhel:
Kabrhel said Allain had gotten a lucky river since Kabrhel had him freerolled. The bubble moves on.

Another hand was all but done and three players were waiting for their fate on different tables.
Hand 1
Walter Treccarichi shoved for the last 9,800 and Martin Kabrhel called in the big blind. Lots of chat emerged and Treccarichi said he had pocket sixes, Kabrhel jokingly replied "I have sevens." Once the other tables were finished and the camera crew in place, the cards were turned over.
Walter Treccarichi:
Martin Kabrhel:
The board ran out and Treccarichi doubled with a flopped full house.
Hand 2
On the river of a board with almost 100,000 in the middle, Nino Ullmann had pushed against Kiryl Radzivonau and the latter called all in from one seat over for 101,800.
Kiryl Radzivonau:
Nino Ullmann:
Ullmann had bluffed with a missed straight draw and Radzivonau had rivered a full house to double.
Hand 3
Jonathan Abdellatif raised and then called the shove of Jason Wheeler for 59,100.
Jason Wheeler:
Jonathan Abdellatif:
"Any jacks out there?" Abdellatif asked, but the board came instead.
