"Tell him about the hands," said Zdenek Zahorcik's tablemate, as Zahorcik stood to head away from the table.
All the Zahorcik could do was let out a wry smile and walked away.
His tablemates filled us in. According to them, he has had pocket queens - twice, pocket jacks - twice, and most recently eliminated a player when his managed to overtake his opponent's .
Zahorcik has added nearly 200,000 chips to his stack and is well above average, which now stands at 173,000.
Peter Reil moved all in from under the gun for just under 30,000. It folded around to his namesake Peter Prinz in the small blind who moved all in himself. The big blind folded and the cards were turned over.

A record field of 783 has been whittled down over the course of four starting flights to just 150 who will each battle it out for a share of a �150,000 guaranteed prizepool later today at the King's Casino in Rozvadov.
After 15 levels, it is Day 1B chip leader Ruben Perez from Spain who leads the way, with 426,500. After him comes Bartosz Szafraniec (407,500) from Poland who topped the chip counts in Day 1A, and German Nadi Yusuf (370,500) who bagged up his chips late last night as the chip leader from Day 1D.
The plan today is simple: Play until there is a winner! Blinds start at 2,500/5,000 with a 500 ante. There is one notable difference to the Day 1 schedule, and it is that the levels are now 40 minutes long instead of 30. Nevertheless we should be in for an exciting day as this event reaches its conclusion.
