I watch via firefox.

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.

[wheels25]

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")

[wheels25]

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.

[PujolsOfPokr]

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.

[wheels25]

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.
