Woes for Team Pros

Level 5 : 150/300, 25 ante

It's been a bad period for Team PokerStars Pro as Luca Pagano lost a pot and Johnny Lodden was eliminated.

Pagano was involved in a four-way pot that went to a {6-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{q-Hearts} flop. His 1,800 bet was only called by Arie Kliper en route to the {j-Spades} turn. Pagano fired again, for 3,000. Call. The river came {a-Diamonds} and the Italian quickly checked behind when Kliper checked for a third time. Kliper got there with {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}, besting Pagano's {9-Clubs}{9-Hearts}.

Meanwhile on a nearby table Lodden's luck was well and truly out. He busted with pocket kings to Michele Aniello's pocket tens. The chips went in on a ten-high board. The only saving grace for the Norwegian is that he can go and see the Barcelona football match on Monday.
