Kevin Iacofano moved all in for less than 20,000 and was called by Dragan Kostic. Iacofano’s tournament life was riding on his up against the of Kostic.
The dealer gave them a board of a little seat on the turn but a river brick to eliminate Iacofano.
With a steady stream of eliminations so far today, tables are breaking and players are being assigned new seats. Any hard earned information about player tendancies and stack sizes has to be learnt anew.
One player to just move tables is Aki Votkin from Finland who arrived with his chip tray and sat down on the right of a Swedish player called Viktor Blom.
It folded around to Votkin in the Hi-Jack who opened for 2,100. Blom, earphones in, left leg jiggling furiously out to the side of the table, raised him to 5,800. Folded round to Votkin he decided to muck his hand.
German player Torsten Pischl, who won a ticket in a live satellite, started the day with 112,500. That was a nice position to be in but now he secured an ever firmer spot on our radar as he has a little over 300,000, which should make him the tournament chip leader at the moment.
Apparently Pischl won several big pots, but one of them stood out. He had in a three bet pot on with two spades. All the money went in and his pair and flush draw was up against pocket aces. Pischl hit a ten on the river to make two pair and grabbed the chips in the massive pot.
We'll keep an eye on Pischl from now on that's for sure.
Joni Joukimainen opened for 2,600 and then called a three-bet from Team PokerStars Pro Henrique Pinho, who was sitting on the button. Both players then checked the flop as well as the turn, and then Jouhkimainen check-called a bet of 5,000 on the river.
Pinho tabled the for top pair, and it was good as Jouhkimainen sent his cards to the muck.
The board read when we picked up the action, as Michael Tabarelli was facing a check-raise. Tabarelli had 14,600 out in front of him while the man on his direct right, had put in 32,000.
Tabarelli pondered for a bit before ultimately calling Halil Baybars' check-raise.
On the river the hit and Baybars decided to check again, after which Tabarelli fired out 22,000. Baybars went into the tank for about a minute before he moved all in, covering his opponent.
Tabarelli seemed shocked and he clearly had not anticipated this move as he went into the tank for about a minute. Ultimately Tabarelli let go of his hand and Baybars smiled as he raked in this big pot.
Action is already underway here on Day 2 of the EPT10 Vienna Main Event, but that shouldn't stop you from watching the lovely Kristy Arnett's daily update:
Registration is now closed for the Skrill Last Longer in Vienna. On Day 1a, 62 players signed up for the competition, and on Day 1b 98 more joined them. That brought the total number of participants up to 160 players, but only 95 of them started Day 2 (see full list below).
The Skrill Last Longer competition is being held at each stop on this season’s EPT, of which they’re an official sponsor. The promotion is simple – players sign up for the promotion either online (preregistration is available) or at the Skrill booth (which will be present at each stop); don a Skrill patch; and then aim to be the last man or woman standing. The last player remaining will then receive their buy-in back via their Skrill account.
While Skrill is upping the ante for Season 10 with a bigger branding initiative, this isn’t their first appearance on the EPT; as a matter of fact, they were a sponsor of Season 8 and have held previous “Last Longer” promotions.
