10:45pm: Play ends for the night
That's all for Day 2. The colourful Tom Holke leads the way. Play will resume at 2pm CET tomorrow.
10:25pm: Last 6 hands
Each of the four remaining tables will play six more hans before bagging up for the night.
10:05pm: Leopizzi goes in 33rd
The tournament has slowed down considerably and it comes as no surprise.Today has been action-filled and ran at a fast pace. A lot of the players will have an eye on getting through this last level and making Day 3.
The tournament has made it down to a four-table affair though after Marco Leopizzi was eliminated in 33rd place.
He was in the big blind and three-bet all in for 138,000 after John Frost opened to 25,000 from the cutoff. Frost shrugged and made the call.
Leopizzi: A♦J♣
Frost: K♣Q♣
The board ran 9♥8♥8♠T♦K♥. A cruel river for Leopizzi seeing as he had the queen covered.
LEVEL UP: BLINDS 6,000-12,000, 2,000 ante
9:35pm: Seven-deuce game anyone?
Tom Holke in not messing around at the moment. If the colourful German is going to play a pot, he's going to play for everything, no matter his hand.
First up, he three-bet all in for around 750,000 and showed pocket queens after Alaettin Keles opened. He folded to the shove. A short while later, he did exactly the same, to the same player, and showed 7♥2♥!
The next time Keles opened a pot, he moved all in with A♠8♠ but ran into Behzad Zarnegar's J♣J♠ and busted.
9:20pm: Uzunoglu rockets up the counts
Kadir Uzunoglu, the Day 1A chip leader, has a stack approaching nearly a million chips after a cooler saw him eliminate Ioan Mihai Taisz.
After an early position open to 25,000, Uzunoglu three-bet to 100,000 and Taisz cold four-bet all in for 433,000 from the small blind. Taisz made an easy call after the original raiser folded.
Uzunoglu: A♠K♠
Taisz: A♣A♥
The board ran 3♥5♣4♦7♠9♣.
9:05pm: Four bust post dinner

Spivack: 4♠4♦
The board ran T♠7♣9♣A♦T♥.
Eckl had a little fist-pump celebration to himself and Spivack - who had got up to leave - though it had been directed at him. The two had a couple of words in German about it but it fixxled into nothing.
7:25pm: Jonas really out of Lauck
Former FPS High Roller champion Jonas Lauck got his chips in dominating his opponent but was soon stood in line at the payout desk.
He raised to 22,000 from the small with ace-queen and called all in for 220,000 after Tom Holke shoved on him from the big blind. Holke opened ace-nine and flopped a nine. Holke moved up to 900,000 after the win.
Also out is Alon Lang. He can be heard bemoaning his luck close to the press area.
7:10pm: Oscar bows out
Oscar Peleg busted his massage and had to end end his tournament. Sorry, wrong way round, he had to end his massage after busting the tournament.
The likeable Swede moved all in from the cutoff for his last 57,000 chips and was looked up by Yun-Ho Choi in the blinds.
Peleg: J♦Q♣
Choi: A♣9♦
The board ran 9♥A♠2♥9♠7♥ meaning Peleg was drawing dead by the turn.

5:50pm: Jan Heitmann bubbles Eureka5 Hamburg
Team PokerStars Pro Jan Heitmann must be wondering what he needs to do to get an over pair to hold against the under pair of an opponent. Twice during EPT Season 11 did he see his aces cracked by an opponent's pocket queens to wreck his tournament, and a similar situation has occurred here at Eureka5 Hamburg to make Heitmann the bubble boy.
The hand for hand bubble period took 40 minutes to play and ten round of hands. During that period six players managed to double up and there was also one split pot. On the bubble hand, there were two all ins at two separate tables meaning Heitmann, despite busting, had the chance to split the 87th place prize money.
Bijan Sahebkar opened to 12,800 from mid position and called after Heitmann three-bet all in for 62,800 from the button.
Sahebkar: 8♣8♠
Heitmann: J♠J♥
The board ran 8♦A♥6♠2♥7♥ to moans and groans from the gathered crowd.
The crowd then moved over to table one to watch the other all in. Nils Maibaum was the player at risk after he three-bet all for 107,600 from the button after Marco Leopizzi had raised from the cutoff.
Maibaum: J♥J♦
Leopizzi: A♥A♠
The board ran 8♥2♥2♦3♦T♦.
No luck for Heitmann and he could only smile at the predicament. Next time! The last few minutes of the level played out and the players went on a break.
