Gross Eliminates Minieri from Secondary Feature Table

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

We picked up the action on a {5-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{3-Spades} flop with 11,600 in the pot. Dario Minieri had gotten his last 3,400 all in fron the hijack and was squaring off against Timothy Adams and Jeff Gross. Adams bet 3,800 from the big blind and Gross called from early position to create a 7,600 side pot.

When the {K-Spades} turned, Adams bet 8,500 but folded when Gross shoved all in for 35,700. Gross then tabled the {k-Clubs}{k-Hearts} for a turned set, which had Minieri's {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} drawing dead. As the dealer was putting out the meaningless {8-Diamonds} on the river, Minieri shook Gross' hand and then took his leave from the EPT London Main Event.

One For Negreanu

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Team PokerStars Pro Daniel Negreanu just raised to 2,200 and was three-bet to 5,500 by Dinesh Alt from the small blind. Negreanu called and the flop brought {6-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{9-Spades}.

Alt checked to Negreanu who bet 4,200 and his opponent called.

The turn brought the {2-Diamonds} and Alt checked again. Negreanu bet 6,500 and took down the pot. Alt was allowed to see one of Negreanu's cards and he picked the {6-Clubs}.

"You were in bad shape, I had two pair," Negreanu said with a smile as their table was broken up. Negreanu was moved to the right of Anton Wigg and while he's down just a little bit from the start of the day he's still in very good shape right now.

Shorr Folds the River

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Georgios Kapalas opened to 2,100 from under the gun, Shannon Shorr three-bet to 5,200 from middle position, and the action folded back to Kapalas, who called.

The flop fell {8-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}, Kapalas check-called a bet of 4,700, and both players checked when the {4-Spades} turned. The {3-Hearts} completed the board, and Kapalas fired out 16,800. Shorr tanked for a considerable amount of time, assembling enough chips to call and placing them to the side of his stack.

Finally, without warning, Shorr flicked his cards into the muck and instantly tossed out his ante for the next hand.
