We had a bit of a break in the action this evening when EPT President Edgar Stuchly introduced the first playout of Nick Javas' 'Ride on the River' at EPT Barcelona. Check it out - and an interview with the New Jerseyan at the PokerStars Blog.
Kristijonas Andrulis raised to 1,800 from the cutoff and found a three-bet from Stephen Chidwick on the button. Chidwick made it 4,500 to go and action was then on Simon Mattsson in the small blind. Mattson cut out a four-bet to 10,200 and the big blind folded. Andrulis went into the tank for a moment before five-betting to 17,300. Chidwick folded and Mattsson moved all in over the top with a six-bet. Andrulis snapped him off for his own tournament life.

Andrulis jumped into the lead when he paired up on the 
flop. The 
on the turn was a scare card as it made Mattsson open ended to make a straight on fifth street. Unfortunately for Andrulis, that's exactly what happened as the 
finished off the board and he was suddenly without any chips. Andrulis made a quick exit from the tournament area and Mattsson dragged in the pot.
Mattson now has about 130,000 in chips.
