Darios Suffering in Level 8
board (he was small blind vs. big blind and I wish I knew how such a pot grew). But Dario Minieri's in much worse shape - in fact he's out, having reached the Red Alert of under 3k.
Just prior to his busting (in fact I think it was the hand before) he did win a few chips, getting it all in preflop in Omaha hi-low with
in the small blind vs. utg's 
. "Low cards!" commanded Minieri.
"High cards!" came the reply.
Flop:
(One got their wish)Turn:
River:
"You got there," laughed his opponent as Minieri took his half of the pot.
Cernut-out!
His exit hand was a Stud 8-or-better one, and I have only two details - one, that he was eliminated in a double bustout to Jon Turner, and two, his hand ended up as (in no particular order)
vs. Turner's 
.
Cernuto Lets His Boots Go
Heads up with Justin Young, John Cernuto bet a
flop, which Young check-called. The same thing happened on the 
turn. However, on the river, Young switched to betting out. After a short while, Cernuto mucked his hand face up - 
no good...?He's in the danger zone now with just 3k.

Todd Brunson Straightens Low Into Scoop
. Diamond-heavy or not, his bet on the river secured him both halves of the pot as his turned out to be good.It occurs to me sometimes that poker terminology might be well-nigh incomprehensible to the casual reader. I apologise if there are any of those at the minute - the title of this post is a case in point. It looks like what came out when we put the Dutch Pokernews through babelfish...
Three Times the Charm?
failed to hit against . The most vocal participant on a table which includes Dario Minieri thus exits the tournament area.
