Action Heating Up

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

The action is fast and furious and 25 players have departed over the last three levels. Korea��s Soo Joo Kim is one of the more recent casualties and it is getting to do or die time for some of the 67 remaining players.

Karol Janiszewski has dropped down the pecking order and his once mighty stack is much reduced and the Polish player now has just 28,000 in chips in front of him.

Bobby Zhang has been a busy bunny over the last three levels and has run his 20,000 stack all the way up to over 100,000, courtesy of a kindly tablemate.

We caught former frontrunner Oliver Saul involved in a hand against Jesus Fernandez shortly before the break that had the potential to be a big pot, but fizzled out after the flop.

We caught the two players battling it out over the {5-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{q-Spades} flop with close to 12,000 in bets, blinds and antes in the pot just as Saul (cutoff) checked the action over to Fernandez on the button. The UK-based Spaniard fired for 4,500 and Saul made the call to bring in the {q-Clubs} turn and pair the board.

This brought checks from both players and once Saul again checked on the {9-Spades} river Fernandez bombed out a beefy 25,000 bet, which was enough to take it down and he climbed to around 90,000 while Saul dropped to around 95,000.

With the break fast approaching we got a few chips counts of those still in the running:
