Scandies Scant

In the space of 15 minutes, we've lost Swede Chris Bjorin and Norwegian Jan Sjavik. They represented a pretty high percentage of Scandinavians in the event - possibly the full whack.

Sjavik, who'd showed calm stoicism in the face of hours of short stack grinding and splitting late last night, finally got it in in Omaha hi-lo against two opponents. He'd raised preflop committing 1,600 and leaving himself just 500 behind. Button James Covington called, as did big blind Jennifer Harman.

The rest went in on the {6-Diamonds} {J-Spades} {Q-Hearts} flop, while the others checked down the {Q-Diamonds} turn and {3-Diamonds} river. Harman now showed first - {J-Clubs} {A-Hearts} {5-Hearts} {K-Hearts} which turned out to be good. The others mucked, and Sjavik headed for the rail.
