Two Double Ups

Level 14 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Dan Petrea was one of two casualties upon returning to the tables while [Removed:418] and Andrei Nodea doubled.

Nodea defended his big blind against a raise by Razvan Bordei and check-shoved the {J-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{2-Hearts} flop with {4-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} for bottom two pair. Bordei called with {K-Hearts}{J-Hearts} and the {Q-Spades} turn and {7-Diamonds} river were blanks.

[Removed:419] three-bet shoved for 47,000 out of the small blind and Federico Petruzzelli called in the big blind, initial raiser Ferenc Csaba Pal folded. [Removed:419] had a flip with {9-Spades}{9-Hearts} versus {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds} and got there thanks to a board of {K-Clubs}{Q-Spades}{4-Spades}{3-Spades}{6-Clubs}.

Fabian jams Up Stack

Level 14 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Ran Shahar min-raised to 10,000 first to act and Stefan Fabian from one seat over made it 30,000 to go. Aurel Iovan called in the small blind and Shahar also came along for the ride. On the {9-Spades}{6-Spades}{4-Diamonds} flop, Iovan checked and Shahar bet 44,000. Fabian moved all in and Iovan asked for a count.

The shove of Fabian was deemed to be for 204,000 and that forced out both opponents.

74 Players Remain on First Break

Level 13 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

The first two levels are done and dusted and there are just 75 players remaining. Carmen Zainescu was among the last four casualties at the end of the level when she got it in with {K-}{J-} against the {Q-}{10-} of Cristian Anton on a {10-}{8-}{8-} flop.

Anton then scooped the last hand of the level against Tudor Purice. In a limped pot to the {J-Spades}{8-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{7-Hearts} turn, Purice check-raised from 5,000 to 28,000 after the flop had gone check, check, and Anton called. The {A-Hearts} river was checked and Purice showed {J-Hearts}{9-Spades}, which Anton had beat with {A-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}.

After the current 15-minute break, the live stream table will kick off with a delay of 30 minutes and feature Vivian Saliba, Radu Danut, Nicolae Sorin Son and Petre Laurentiu Chiriac among others.

Papazian Busts in Three-Way All In

Level 13 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
Radu Pitic and Alexandru Papazian
Radu Pitic and Alexandru Papazian

First to act Luca Moschitta moved all in for around 60,000 and was called by Radu Pitic from one seat over. Alexandru Papazian reshoved to isolate, but Pitic was not in the mood of folding and called to put two players at risk.

Luca Moschitta: {J-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}
Alexandru Papazian: {A-Clubs}{K-Spades}
Radu Pitic: {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}

The {10-Spades}{9-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} flop improved Pitic to top set, while Moschitta regained the lead thanks to the {J-Spades} turn. Papazian could get there with a queen, but the {A-Spades} on the river was too little, too late, for the first ever Romanian bracelet winner. Once again the bad beat vodka was brought to the table and Pitic shared his shot with Papazian before the latter departed in style.

Check out the interview Papazian did with Sarah Herring yesterday about his site UnderTheGun.ro.

Over and Out for Iacob

Level 13 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Not even 15 minutes after his pocket aces were cracked, Iulian iacob departed. Andrei Racolta had raised to 9,500 from early position and iacob shoved for 120,500 in the cutoff. Racolta used one time bank extension and called for just under half of his remaining stack.

Iulian iacob: {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}
Andrei Racolta: {A-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}

The {A-Spades}{Q-Clubs}{9-Spades} flop provided both over cards for Racolta, and the {J-Hearts} turn and {5-Diamonds} river failed to improve him.
