Reversal of Fortune

When we last checked in with young Dario Minieri, he had just eliminated Ramzi Jelassi and had taken his micro stack up to a more workable 7,500. Twenty minutes and six flights of up-and-down the stairs from the media room to the casino floor later, the scarf-loving Italian was sitting on a rather hefty stack of 34,000.

Dario's first leap in chip count came when he landed on the good end of a coinflip, his {A-?} {10-?} flopping top pair against his opponent's {9-?} {9-?}. One more double-up and a few small pots later, he's good for second in chips, behind Roland de Wolfe, who has ground his stack up past 40,000-- all while enjoying a massage that has now past the six-hour mark.
