More News from the "Lounge"

The final numbers for the event are currently confirmed and it looks like there have been 178 entries in total. Almost 50 participants have been eliminated and there are just three tables left in the "Lounge", the secondary tournament area.
Among them are Jonathan Clark, Daniel Wilson, David Urban and Niall Farrell. Clark is no longer the biggest stack, as Urban has more than him. And then there is also Franck Makaci, who registered at the last minute and managed to spin up his stack a lot. The latest hand saw him bet 4,500 on the turn after Wilson checked out of the big blind.
Both then checked the river and Wilson showed
for queen-high with a ten kicker. Makaci had the
for the better kicker and claimed the pot.
Niall Farrell is down to less than 10 big blinds. The Scotsman bet the turn for 2,600 and the big blind check-called before Farrell then checked behind the
river. He turned over king-queen and the big blind had
for a full house.
