They're down to 3 tables I believe.
24 people left. I believe the winner of last year's Barcelona EPT event is still alive (unless he was one of the last 10 KOed).

Correct. I`d say Kai Buxxe is the only known player there left in the tournament. Above average stack if I got it right.

Which one is Kai Buxxe again? I know who he is, just forget his name.

Niklas is his first name. Guy with blue shirt and most chips on that table.

I think 2+2 forums was just name-dropped.
Anyone else hear that??

(The announcer said something along the lines of: "I was reading *something about European players* on 2+2 forums during one of the breaks")

Jep, heard this too. One of the announcers were talking about your post where you said the competition seems to be pretty soft. Announcer brought up that a lot of American players would wonder how strong European players are.

That's too funny wheels. Either way, I was just basing what I said off the fact that (as the announcers admitted) the poker boom hit different European countries several years after the U.S. Poker boom. Thus, I assume that European players don't have the experience/general skill level of their American counterparts.

I could be way off, of course.

No you are basically right. A lot of people here in Europe (speaking for Germany, Austria, Netherlands and Czech Republic) just got hooked up with it.

You ll see a lot of beginners here who just caught Poker on Television.
But there are also some top notch players (Skandinivia = Gus Hansen, Antonius) in Europe especially doing great playing online.

The Vesty guy keeps opening all in pre-flop for ~30 BB's.
It finally backfired on him as he pushed AIPF with 9-9 and got caught by the guy to his left who was holding Jacks.
