The tournament is now split pretty evenly between two large tournament rooms, and when you see players coming out of the furthest one without a rack, it's time to report their Main Event demise. Most recently out:
EPT London winner with €1,000,000+ won so far in tournament prizes David Vamplew
Florian Langmann
Perma-qualifier Pierre Neuville was just noticed doing stretching exercises using the back of his chair for balance. When asked what was up with that, he replied, "I am back from 12,000 - so I have cramp!"
Neuville is now sitting on a much healthier and above-average 160,000.
A juicy pot preflop developed into an interesting one post, as Mathieu Thiry four-bet Kirill Telezhkin's button 12,200 to 29,500. After a short think, Telezhkin made the call to see a 
flop. Thiry led for 39,000 (leaving himself 54,000 behind) which Telezhkin also called. The turn was the 
. Now Thiry checked, and Telezhkin bet 19,200. Back to Thiry, who moved all-in, prompting an instafold and table-tap from his opponent, who'd now dropped to just 52,000.
Markus Lehmann has dropped into the danger zone on just 40,000 after doubling up a shorter stack to around 110,000.

Meanwhile, Irish Open winner Christer Johansson was also involved in a perhaps disappointing chop a couple of tables away.

Board: 
Johansson remains below average on 85,000. Weisner is faring rather better on 310,000.
Leo Margets has been in some trouble for the past hour or so after getting her jacks cracked by sixes. So it was a huge disappointment for her when she finally found both a hand and a caller, but ended up just chopping the pot.

Board: 
Margets remains super-short on just 25,000 or so.
Ben Wilinofsky, recent winner of EPT Berlin, continues to chip up today. Sarah Grant pulled him aside to talk about a big pot.
