Basdeo Cracks Kings; Doubles Through Marchetti

Level 4 : 100/300, 300 ante

With 8,000 in the middle and the completed board showing {q-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{k-Spades}{10-Hearts}, Luca Marchetti checked and Ramlal Basdeo moved all in for 9,100 on the button. Marchetti used one time bank and called to get shown the {k-Clubs}{j-Hearts} for a straight by Basdeo.

Marchetti was shaking his head and didn't want to show his cards. He was then reminded by tournament staff that it was a rule as per all in showdown and rolled over {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds} for top set that ended up second-best.

Cherniak With a Nice Call

Level 4 : 100/300, 300 ante

On the river of a completed board of {10-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}, Lluis Balaque made it 7,000 to go with about as many chips in the pot and Evgenii Cherniak reluctantly called. Balaque rolled over the {10-Spades}{3-Clubs} and a relieved Cherniak tabled {6-Hearts}{6-Spades} for a set to win the pot.

"Nice call," Balaque told him right away and tapped the table.

Sergio Alonso
Sergio Alonso

Four players invested 2,100 preflop and headed to a flop of {q-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}, which was checked through. On the {7-Clubs} turn, Carmen Zainescu made it 4,000 to go with around 5,500 behind and Sergio Alonso glanced over, then made the call while the other two players folded.

Zainescu immediately moved all in after the {2-Clubs} river and Alonso almost beat her into the pot. Zainescu tabled the {9-Hearts}{9-Spades} for top set and Alonso had that beat with {9-Clubs}{8-Clubs} for a back door flush.

Chop It Up

Level 5 : 200/400, 400 ante

The restart after the break has been rather tight and barely any major action has happened, while a few re-entries (including Alexandre Mitjavilla Moix) have boosted the field to 91 entries.

Francesco Di Profio took on table neighbor Miquel Riera Gaja when he check-called bets on the {j-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{8-Spades} flop and once again on the {k-Diamonds} turn, this time for 3,000. On the {8-Hearts} river both checked and Di Profio showed Jd6d]. Riera Gaja tabled the {j-Spades}{7-Clubs} and they chopped it up.
