Cherif Vidal Cut Back Down

Level 6 : 250/500, 50 ante

Mladen Ivanov has been eliminated from table 14 and Dominik Maska took his seat. The former big stack of Haykel Cherif Vidal has been reduced to just the starting stack once again after Francisco Jose Garcia Martin doubled through him.

On the {J-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{2-Hearts} flop, Cherif Vidal check-called a bet worth 7,500 by Garcia Martin and the {7-Hearts} turn was checked. After the {9-Hearts} river, Cherif Vidal check-called the shove of Garcia Martin for 11,700 and mucked the {Q-Hearts} as his opponent had {A-Hearts}{Q-Spades} for the nut flush.

Table chip leader is now Sergio Alonso Camunas, who knocked out an opponent with pocket aces.

Pereira Pounds the Flop

Level 6 : 250/500, 50 ante

Huge Pereira made it 1,300 to go from first position but was raised to 4,500 by Jose De Oliveira. Pereira called and saw a flop of {J-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{6-Spades}, whereupon De Oliveira bet 6,400, getting a very quick fold.

Despite winning that hand, Pereira still has a slight lead over De Oliveira. Both men have well over the average stack of 33,00 chips with the dinner break approaching.

Cherif Vidal is the Sheriff at his Table

Level 6 : 250/500, 50 ante

With some 13,000 in the middle and the board showing {K-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{6-Hearts}, Joan Antoni Sanchez Adell bet 4,200 out of the big blind. Initial raiser Haykel Cherif Vidal from early position opted for a smooth raise to 40,000 with around 32,000 behind and that left Sanchez Adell with two choices only: Call all in or fold.

Sanchez Adell eventually mucked and Cherif Vidal raked in another pot, he already tripled up the stack in the first half of Day 1b.

Gomez Anadon eventually called and Szaszko flashed {K-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} for a bluff, which the Spaniard had beat with {A-Hearts}{j-Hearts}.

Rosell Agraz Gets Short; Doubles Twice Again

Level 6 : 250/500, 50 ante

Rosell Agrez then doubled with {A-Clubs}{5-Clubs} versus {K-Spades}{Q-Clubs} before doubling for 6,250 with {K-Clubs}{Q-Spades} himself. The latest hand was against Yana Punchuk, and the Spaniard continues a wild ride that may see him get back to starting stack or on the rail at any time.

The tournament room at Casino Barcelona

A big pot was building from the flop over on the outer table in the Main Event here on Day 1b in Barcelona's 888Live Festival.

On a flop showing {9-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}, the initial raiser made a c-bet of 2,000 from the big blind and was called by Thierry Gogniat in the next seat as well as two others including Daragh Davey in middle position. The turn card of {7-Hearts} saw Gogniat take over the betting lead when checked to, as he fired out 2,700. this time, only Davey called.

On the river of {A-Spades}, Gogniat made it 7,800, but when Davey moved all-in for a shade over 20,000 chips, Gogniat went into the tank, emerging only to find that he had to fold to preserve the 25,600 chips he still had behind. Davey had won a fine pot, and without going to showdown to boot. The Irishman is on the charge.
