2011 World Series of Poker Europe
Ludovic Lacay has just doubled up twice in successive hands. The first hand he won was for 1,250 when his stood the test of time against the of his opponent. Then he pushed 5,000 over the line with and received a caller holding and now has 10,000.
The 'table of death' we talked about earlier has been taken apart by one man, Mikko Sundell. The Finish player who final tabled the WPT in Paris earlier this year is crushing and just knocked out Mike McDonald.
The board was and McDonald checked from the small blind to Sundell who bet 6.000. That bet was enough to put the Canadian all-in, and after only a couple of seconds he made the call and got the bad news. Sundell showed after which McDonald mucked his cards and left the room. He later told us he also called pre flop, on the flop and turn with pocket sevens. McDonald is going to play as many events as possible so we'll be seeing lots of him this week.

Dominik Nitsche currently has the face and belief of a lucky man. He managed to get it all-in pre flop for 20 big blinds against a Tobias Garp and when the cards were turned over Nitsche was not looking good at all.

Sorel Mizzi is one of the tournament pro's know for his agressive style and that just backfired against Finnish player Mikko Sundell. Tyler Kenney told us what happened in this big pot that launched Sundell towards the top of the chip counts.
Sundell raised pre flop and got three-bet by Mizzi who was in the blinds. The flop was and Mizzi continued betting, Sundell called. The turn paired the board with a and now Mizzi made a bigger and got called once again.
The river was a and Mizzi overbet all-in for 7,100 chips. Sundell called and Mizzi said, "Nice hand" as he mucked his cards. Sundell showed pocket tens and raked in a big pot.

Casey Kastle is busy building a nice castle of chips after he just busted Filippo Candio. The Italian pro was short and decided to re-shove for about 2.100 with off suit and Kastle snapped him off with pocket aces. The board didn't change anything and Kastle is now playing 13,500.
Kastle got rid of Candio but is still playing against experienced pro's Alexander Kravchenko and Jonathan Aguiar.
