Table Talk: Vanessa Selbst

[user25067]
[user25067]
Vanessa Selbst is apparently multi-lingual. After the player on her right beat her in a pot that cost her over half her stack, Selbst engaged both the dealer and a nearby media rep in rapid-fire conversation in perfect Spanish. Selbst seemed a little tilty at that moment and who could blame her-- she's down to only 4,200 in chips as we approach the end of the second level.

We are experiencing internet issues here at the Barcelona Casino. Hopefully it will be resolved very shortly. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Dinner Break Info.

Much like yesterday, Tables 1-15 will break for dinner at the end of this level, while Tables 16 and higher will take a 15-minute break and then return to play Level 3. Once the first half of the field returns from dinner, the second half will get their turn at the Players' Buffet.

On a flop of {4-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{2-Spades}, the small blind bet 1,000 and Marcel Luske called. The turn was the {9-Clubs}. The small blind bet 2,000 and Luske called again. The river was the {A-Spades}. The small blind checked, Luske bet 2,000 and the small blind called. Luske flipped over A-5, having flopped the wheel.

After the hand, Luske was up to 12,500.

After the action was raised and re-raised pre-flop, the small blind bet 1,800 on a flop of {9-Spades}{4-Spades}{2-Clubs}. Dario Minieri immediately moved all in and after a very long think, the small blind folded. After the hand, Minieri was hovering close to his starting stack of 10,000.

Daniel Negreanu Loses A Pot

On a flop of {K-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}, the small blind checked and Daniel Negreanu bet 400. His opponent called. The turn was the {6-Spades}. The small blind checked and Negreanu bet 1,200. The small blind called. The river was the {7-Spades}. Both players checked. The small blind flipped over {K-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} and said, "I have a pair of Kings."

Negreanu peeked at his cards before he mucked and said, "Nice hand."

Negreanu's stack slipped to 14,000.

The Fashion Report: Barcelona

Johnny Chan
Johnny Chan
Team Poker Stars' Isabelle Mercier is playing today, looking relaxed and tan in dark jeans with studded back pockets, an army green tank top (also studded), a pink and green camouflage cap, and dark sunglasses. Liz Lieu also begins her tournament today. The recent U.S.-to-U.K. emigre is sporting a gray plaid newsboy cap, dark jeans and is carrying one of her signature quilted Chanel purses.

As for the gentlemen, Marcel Luske is impeccable as usual in a sharp black suit and a striped tie. Italian online superstar Dario Minieri sports artfully torn jeans and his favorite scarf-- which looks like it came straight out of the Harry Potter films. Johnny Chan is decked out in a tight patterned designer tee and the Gucci baseball cap he wore nearly every day of this summer's WSOP.
