Dogra Dogra Eliminated

Level 4 : 200/400, 75 ante

Joining the action on the {Q-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{A-Diamonds} turn, Harcharan Dogra Dogra checked and called a bet worth 4,500 before checking again the {8-Diamonds} on the river. His sole remaining opponent Antonio Perez Alonso bet 11,000 and that had Dogra Dogra covered. He eventually called all in and sent his cards into the muck after Perez Alonso showed {4-Hearts}{3-Hearts} for a straight.

Dogra Dogra will have to re-enter if he wants to rack up another deep run, having finished 7th in the EPT13 Barcelona Main Event last year at this very venue.

Cauteruccio Bests Castro Garcia

Level 4 : 200/400, 75 ante
Giovanno Cauteruccio
Giovanno Cauteruccio

Giovanno Cauteruccio stood up from his chair while the {9-Clubs}{8-Clubs} were tabled in front of him, and he was up against the pocket kings of Francisco Javier Castro Garcia. The Spaniard was at risk preflop for around 8,000 and Cauteruccio was asking for help. His wish was granted with the board running out {6-Spades}{6-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{10-Clubs} to provide a flush.

All In Festival on Table 13

Level 4 : 200/400, 75 ante

Within a few minutes the action went crazy over at table 13 and it all started with a move by Joaquin Exposito Cabrera. The Spaniard got his stack in with the {K-Clubs}{j-Spades} and Francisco Blazquez Sallego looked him up with {Q-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}, the board came {8-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{3-Spades}{5-Hearts}{10-Hearts}.

Then, there were plenty of chips in the middle on a four-way flop of {Q-Clubs}{Q-Spades}{7-Spades} and the action checked to Montserrat Tudela Navarro. Her bet faced the shove of Younesse Oulgasi in the cutoff and Jeroen Aarts in the small blind called all in for around 15,000, while the big blind reluctantly folded.

Tudela Navarro mucked the {4-Clubs}{4-Spades} and Aarts turned over {A-Spades}{5-Spades}. Oulgasi had the {A-Clubs}{Q-Hearts} for trips queens and faded the flush draw on the {2-Diamonds} turn and {10-Diamonds} river to join the big stacks.

Cherif Vidal is the Sheriff

Level 5 : 300/600, 100 ante

Joachim Lob raised to 1,400 and Renato Garcia Majuelo, who had recently re-entered, called from two seats over. Haykel Cherif Vidal in the small blind had other plans and raised to 3,200, which both opponents called. The flop fell {8-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{5-Spades} and Cherif Vidal's continuation bet worth 42,000 did the trick to claim the pot uncontested.

Leoni Thriving

Level 5 : 300/600, 100 ante

Matteo Leoni has more than doubled up his stack in the five levels thus far, while Carlos Avila Ortega has been eliminated. He may be back soon though, as two re-entries are allowed during the first 11 levels today. One of the players that already took advantage of this option is Robert Cazali.

Ignacio Chipongian on Six Digits

Level 5 : 300/600, 100 ante
Jon Ignacio Chipongian
Jon Ignacio Chipongian

A big pot was brewing on the table of Jon Ignacio Chipongian and the Spaniard bet the {Q-Spades}{5-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} turn for 12,000 into a pot of around 25,000. The player on the button moved all in for 36,525 and Ignacio Chiopongian gave it plenty of consideration.

The clock was called on him, and with four seconds left, he called and was shown {5-Clubs}{2-Clubs} by the button. Relieved, Ignacio Chipongian turned over {Q-Clubs}{8-Clubs} for top pair and the {10-Clubs} river was a blank.
