Amsterdam Masterclassics - DAY 3 - Live Update (Interactive)
Djinn:
Karl Mahrenholz is struggling valiantly with his less-than-half-average stack. Just now he raised to 8k preflop (blinds now 1,500/3,000 ante 400) with one caller - Blatny in the small blind. When it was checked to him on the 6c ad1 :3d: flop he bet 16k, about a third of his stack, and won it there.
But limpers are being punished on Table Mantis - most recently Tristan McDonald made it 15k to go on the button after Karl and Keith Hawkins limped, getting rid of all four potential opponents right there. Noah Boeken, too, has had his whole stack (c.70k) over the line twice in the last ten minutes, once getting rid of limper Anderson. Every time his chips threaten to move, a Dutch film crew comes and stands right in front of the rail, meaning that when he"s eventually caught/called, I am very unlikely to know what the cards are. But that hasn"t happened yet - he"s picked up about 15k with these aggressive all-in moves.

Chris "Soxy" Sokrati is OUT -
Short stacked, he raised to 5,900 (I think this was either all-in or a commited raise). The Camel in the cutoff re-raised to 16,000, but found Tristan McDonald coming over the top again from the big blind. Sokrati, then, was all in against McDonald (who"s also English - add him to the list)...
Sokrati: 9h :2c:
McDonald: ad1 kh
Board: :as: 9s 5d 6c th
So it looks like he finished in 35th - an ?8,500 payday for Soxy.

It was mentioned before that there was a picture of Michael Martin and the "man with the cowboy hat." I still haven"t seen this pic. Is it up yet?
Also, any further info on Michael would be greatly appreciated.

Morning all! Morning The Reader in particular - I have just witnessed one of your Young Americans taking out a short stack on the TV table. Both short stacks on the table, Paul Testud and a gent named Kruschner, had been playing quite cagey, so imagine Michael Martin"s delight when Kruschner shoved for his remaining 15k or so.
Kruschner - :2c: :2h:
Martin - kh kd
Board - 7h 8s 8c 5s 5c
Kruschner is OUT, and he stands up and puts his coat on. He sort of hovers by his former seat for a few moments though. I think he might be expecting applause, or some degree of ceremony, or something, but he doesn"t get it. It"s a little tiny bit sad, actually.
Photos on their way soon as I"ve uploaded and edited them...

And another one especially for you.
Michael"s been on the TV table all day. He"s currently sharing said table with, among others, chip leaders Micke Norinder and Peter Dalhuijsen, as well as Johann Storakers next to him. It"s a pretty dangerous place to be...

Is there any chance of a chip count of the Brits left in?
