Prior to the Break

On the outer table, we witnessed some minor action on the final two hands prior to the break. With Kristian Tolvhed making it 59,000 from the button, Yngve Steen asked for a count before reraising to 175,000 from the small blind. Tolvhed folded. On the next hand, the action passed around to Pavel Novak who raised to 45,000 from the small blind. The Pole then folded to a reraise to circa 100,000 from Helder Rodrigues in the big blind, albeit after a dwell.
