Word has reached the press room that Steve O'Dywer is no more. Don't worry, he's alive and well, just out of the tournament.
The details are very vague but we do know he was holding 
to Yury Gulyy's 
. For some reason O'Dwyer didn't seem too impressed with his opponent's play.
We caught up with the action to see a board of 
spread on the felt. With well over 19,000 already in the middle, we found Dan Smith pondering his action. He continued to do so for about sixty seconds before finally cutting out 12,800. Pietro Paolo Sibione in the next seat over flat called and action was on a third player at the other end of the table. He released as there were two left going to the river.
The dealer produced the 
on the last street and Smith once again went into the tank. Time was called but by the time the floor staff came over Smith tapped the table to check. Sibione checked right back.
Smith showed 
but was ultimately behind Sibione's 
. Smith watched as the pot of roughly 45,000 chips was pushed toward his opponent. Smith is still above starting stack, however, with roughly 32,500.
Sibione, on the other hand, is now sporting about 71,000 in chips.
Dominik Nitsche is on the up after he took on and defeated Marc-Andre Ladouceur.
The action was four-way to a 
flop and Nitsche bet 2,000 when the action was checked to him in the hijack. Paul Berende called from the small blind; the big blind folded but Ladouceur check-raised to 5,900.
Nitsche called and then stared at the Canadian as he bet 5,900 on the 
turn. Nitsche moved all in for about 17,000 and Ladouceur had to admit defeat and fold.
Kai Vater raised to 1,800 preflop and Edouard Katz three-bet to 3,800. The action was folded back to Vater who sighed and moved all in for 10,825. Katz had to call only a little more but took his time. When the dealer counted down his stack Katz called.
Vater: 
Katz:
The board ran out 
and Vater doubled up.

The
