Adams Doubles Through Heath
Ben Heath, having regained the stack of 3,000,000+ he held around five hours ago, has dropped right back down to the short stack spot (1.6 million) after doubling up Timothy Adams. Button Heath opened for 190,000 with [Qdjd] and found small blind Adams moving in for 1,400,000 with [Khqh]. Not
Final Table *Still* Four-Handed, Little Between the Stacks
The final four players are oscillating between being bunched tightly in chips and having one player stretch a slim lead; they're evenly matched in experience, skill and, so far, help from the deck. With the blinds creeping up, however, it would only take one big match-up to end the dreams
Vogelsang Wins Last Hand Pre Break
Christoph Vogelsang raised his button with [KdJs] to 130,000, called by both blinds.

Badziakouski Bumps Heath From Chip Lead
Another pot played by the blinds, this time Mikita Badziakouski and Ben Heath and with a little more action than seen for a little while. The former limped preflop with [Jc8c], the latter raised to 180,000 with [9s5h] and received a call. Heath continued for 135,000 on the [3c2c2h] flop when
Chips Bunching Up
Ben Heath retains the lead, with Timothy Adams in second, but both of the shorter stacks have made progress upwards at the expense of the leaders and are virtually neck and neck going into the new level.
Worst. Route. Ever.
While Christoph Vogelsang might be utterly still and silent, scarf protectively draped over the part of his face not shaded by a baseball cap, during a hand he's involved in, he's chatting with the table in between winning small pots. It came to light that his trip here was anything
