Ostergaard Flushes Di Giacomo

Level 7 : 300/600, 600 ante
Claudio Di Giacomo
Claudio Di Giacomo

A raise to 1,500 was called by big stack Simone Rosano and one further player. Claudio Di Giacomo called in the small blind and Jens Ostergaard moved all in from the big blind. The initial raiser folded and Rosano asked for a count. The shove was deemed to be for 32,000 and that proved to be too much.

Di Giacomo, who had just re-entered a few minutes ago, eventually made the sigh-call.

Jens Ostergaard: {j-Spades}{10-Spades}
Claudio Di Giacomo: {a-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}

The {a-Spades}{4-Spades}{2-Diamonds} flop gave Ostergaard a flush draw, which he immediately completed on the {8-Spades} turn to make the {4-Diamonds} river a formality. Di Giacomo dropped down to just 2,000 and has a mountain to climb in order to avoid another re-entry.

Saar Rising Again

Level 7 : 300/600, 600 ante
Siiri Saar
Siiri Saar

Siiri Saar dropped down to just 5,000 after another bluff had gone wrong, but has since doubled up multiple times to jump above the average stack in level seven. On the same table, Ankit Mehta is among the chip leaders and Giuseppe Carbone is also nearing six digits.

For Teunis Kooij, the start into Day 1b after late registration has been mediocre at beast, as the Dutchman lost half of his stack so far.

Rosano and Saha in the Lead

Level 7 : 300/600, 600 ante
Simone Rosano
Simone Rosano

Jan Teunis entered and barely played for 10 minutes when he was eliminated. Just prior to that, Jai Saha had rivered the nut straight with {q-Hearts}{j-Hearts} and scored a knockout.

It would continue even better for Saha, who knocked out two players with {q-Hearts}{q-Spades}. One of them was Gabriel Podovei with {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}, the other a shorter stack with {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs}.

Joining Saha at the top of the leaderboard is Simone Rosano, who just flopped quads against Victor Aubeso Blancas. The latter was unfortunate enough to turn a full house with pocket eights to find himself drawing dead in the showdown.

Franco Eliminated for Now

Level 8 : 400/800, 800 ante
Sonny Franco
Sonny Franco

Luca Marchetti opened to 1,600 and fellow countryman Salvatore Ritrovato three-bet to 4,200, which Fernando Pons called. Sonny Franco called all in for just 1,100 in the big blind and Marchetti also called. All remaining active players checked down the board {k-Spades}{j-Spades}{5-Spades}{8-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} and Marchetti tabled {4-Spades}{4-Diamonds}.

Ritrovato was one better with {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds}, while Pons mucked {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}. Franco had {10-Clubs}{6-Hearts} and hit the rail, but will re-enter shortly.

"It's okay, I can re-enter," the Frenchman said. He can certainly afford to do so after his runner-up finish in the €2,200 High Roller last night.

Small Pots for Evard and Kanaan

Level 8 : 400/800, 800 ante

Francois Evard has chipped up above the current average with 108 players out of 162 entries remaining. The Swiss check-raised a {k-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{2-Hearts} flop from 1,600 to 4,800 and that's all it took to claim the pot right there.

One table over, Ali Kanaan raised in the cutoff and all three players behind called. They checked down the board {a-Spades}{j-Spades}{4-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} and the small blind flipped over {8-}{7-}. The big blind had {10-Spades}{9-Clubs} and Kanaan held the best hand in {k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}.

"I wish you would have raised me," Kanaan said and the big blind replied with a "you would have lost. Not the best flop for you." Kanaan nodded and started stacking his chips.
