Perez Can't Get a Caller

Level 7 : 300/600, 75 ante

It's hard to run short-stacked, but even worse when you can't double-up because no-one will call off your all-in move. Daniel Perez is in that unenviable position, right now, as with almost seven levels in the can, he only has half of his starting stack. His all-in move over Brigido Cucart's opening bet to 1,200 for a total of 13,000 got no callers and he must settle for another spot.

We are definitely at the stage where players need to make a move for the later levels on Day 1b.

Serra Not Hanging Around

Level 7 : 300/600, 75 ante

On a flop of {5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} and with 5,400 in the middle, Vicente Serra saw Michael Darbeaud bet 2,500 into the pot and raised all-in for a total of 37,500.

Such a huge over-bet shove was too much for Darbeaud to call, and he cut a frustrated figure as he eventually let it go.

Escote Shows Bluff

Level 7 : 300/600, 75 ante

Sergi Escote raised to 1,200 and picked up three callers including Zachary Metin and Younesse Oualgasi in the big blind. The flop fell {Q-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} and Escote continued for 2,200. Only Metin called and the {7-Spades} turn saw another bet worth 3,000 by Escote. Metin called and faced a final bet worth 7,500 on the {7-Diamonds} river.

Metin folded and was shown {A-Hearts}{10-Hearts} for a bluff.

Parlee Doubles Through Baltazar

Level 7 : 300/600, 75 ante

On the four-way flop of {J-Spades}{10-Clubs}{6-Spades}, the action checked to Brent Parlee from under the gun and he bet 3,800. Isabel Baltazar and Fares Shehadeh in the big blind called and the {3-Hearts} appeared on the turn.

Shehadeh checked and Parlee shoved for his last 15,900. Baltazar checked Shehadeh's almost even stack and then moved all in, the Italian folded.

Brent Parlee: {J-Hearts}{10-Hearts}
Isabel Baltazar: {A-Spades}{10-Spades}

The {7-Clubs} river was a blank and Parlee doubled, while Michael Panovec walked over to Alexander Teufel to explain how he had busted.

Cherif Moves All-In

Level 7 : 300/600, 75 ante

On a board of {6-Hearts}{A-Hearts}{A-Spades}{2-Clubs}, Mladen Ivanov bet 2,200 and called the raise to 6,500 from Haykel Cherif Vidal.

The river card was a {7-Hearts} and Haykel Cherif Vidal moved all-in for 25,000 and got a quick fold, to catch up on his opponent in the counts.

Arteta Doubles Up Polat

Level 7 : 300/600, 75 ante

On a flop of {2-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{9-Hearts}, Ali Polat moved all-in for his final 10,200 and got a pretty quick call from Jesus Arteta.

Ali Polat: {A-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}
Jesus Arteta: {3-Hearts}{5-Hearts}

The turn {K-Clubs} and river {9-Diamonds} gave Polat a valuable double-up.

Di Ceglie Among the Chip Leaders

Level 7 : 300/600, 75 ante

Soon after coming back from the break, Giovanni Di Ceglie had a short stack at risk with {A-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds} and flipped against {6-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}. The board came {A-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}{3-Spades}{2-Spades}{9-Clubs} and Di Ceglie spiked both over cards to get up to six figures.
