Update 18:00

We are up to Level 5, blinds are 150/300 with 25 Ante.

Chip average is 34,000

There are 335 out of 396 players left.

Our very own Everest Poker qualifier, Hans has doubled up again making himself chip leader! Hans was up against Nico, who you may remember finished second with Everest Poker at EPT Warsaw. Hans has 9T suited against Nico's K's. After some action, the flop came with TT4 and Hans had the hand.

The rest of the Everest Poker players are also doing well, some better than others:

Sander - 9,000

Julien - 50,000

Bernd - 35,000

Steven (Team Everest) 25,000

Update 16:15

Kenny is out. Our Belgian representative went out AK vs. 99. Tough beat, Kenny.

Update 15:20

Hans just doubled up!
He hade AK and his opponent raises and Hans calls
The Flop was AK4 :)
The opponent check raised and his opponent calls.
The turn was an Ace and his opponent went all in. Hans calls.
Hans doubled up and he now has 57,000.

Sander - 45,000

Hans - 27,000

Steven - 40,000
