Robbiano Takes a Rough Beat; Barkay Gets Lucky
Level 14
: 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
At almost the same time on different tables, Pietro Robbiano and Benjamin Barkay ended up all in and at risk. The former was left stunned when his aces were called by Silviu Baltateanu, who had 
and hit a four on the flop.
Another four on the turn gave Baltateanu trips and he then said "I thought you have ace-king" in table chat while he dragged in the big pot.
Barkay was all in with 
against the 
of Day 1b chip leader Maksims Gorbacs, who had taken chips off the player from Israel previously. This time, the board came 
and Barkay voided the elimination in fortunate fashion.
