That the Team RedKings pros where extremely good, we already knew, that the qualifiers usually do good results, we also knew, but we didn’t know that Ville Salmi could be in the top of the chips almost throughout the Estoril Live. Now there is only 8 players left, and Ville Salmi has a nice stack going in to the final table!

Here is the final 8 that will battle out later on today:
1. Ville Salmi, Finland - 548.000
2. Alexander Lang, Österrike 285,000
3. Ola Brandborn, Sverige - 610,000
4. Paul Jansen, Holland - 304,500
5. Ville Mattila, Finland - 579,500
6. Daniel Ferreira, Portugal - 615,000
7. Teemu Kangasvieri, Finland - 575,000
8. Pedro Demevre, Portugal - 597,000

We wish Ville good Luck, and give you a few words he gave us before going in to the tournament: “I’ve played 3 EPT tournaments and about 10 2k-3k€ live tournaments. I haven’t really played any internet poker last year and half. Before that I played quite a lot for 3 years. I mostly like to play live and especially cash games and almost exclusively omaha. This Estoril tournament trip is mostly holiday for me, but obviously I also hope to do well in the tournament.”

It for sure was a great holiday, and so far he has done very well in the tournament!

Good Luck Ville!

And also a side note, we will be reporting from Amsterdam today where Per Linde and Ivo Donev is going in to the Amsterdam Master Classics of Poker Main Event today!
