Happy Birthday

Bubbles for bubbles... Jean-François Hemmer finishes 16th and bubble-boy of the Circus Knockout Progressive Event #3 at €150 entry... on his 40th birthday. The Frenchman from Metz celebrates his 40th birthday with a bottle of bubbles courtesy of Circus Casino Resort!

Jeff clashed with two players on his last shot, Firat Baltaci winning the bonus by hitting a flush... The survivors are guaranteed a €120 payout and Quentin Peeters (below) is still around.

After banging on the SuperSide, this father of two continues his day of pafaite... Yves Senterre and Bayer Demirci are also still in the running for the final table... 

See you on Friday for the full results of this first WaSOP side event.

Giacomelli is right on target (€3,418)

Julien Giacomelli wins the first trophy at stake at the WaSOP festival in the €150 Circus Knockout, a No Limit progressive format... The Luxembourger took advantage of the last duel to treat himself to an orgy of bounties and capture a big ticket worth almost €3,500.

Greg Lahmy kept a few bounties in his pocket and still managed a consolation prize of almost €1,500, enough to freeroll most of the festival... 

Yves Senterre (8th) and Bayer Demirci (10th) enjoyed a deep-run, while Quentin Peeters multitabulated the SuperSide where he found a bag before finishing his night in 11th place in this tournament which brought together 111 entrants...

The festival's next ancillary tournament is the €250 Pot Limit Omaha, which starts Saturday at 6 p.m. (30,000 chips - 30 min.) with 10 levels of late registration, meaning that entries will be open until just before midnight...
