Sofia Lovgren
Sofia Lovgren

Having nursed a below-average for quite some time, Sofia Lovgren was just seen while heading out of the tournament area and her table broke right after. There are only 52 players remaining close to the final level of the night.

Piturca Flops Best; Dobrescu Bows Out

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Victorio Piturca got his stack of around 30,000 in with the {a-Diamonds}{9-Spades} and Valentin Dobrescu had that dominated with the {a-Spades}{q-Hearts}. The board came {j-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} to see Piturca improve to a pair of nines.

Dobrescu raise-folded to a jam after before getting it in with {k-}{7-} against the {a-Spades}{k-Spades} of Derek Reid. The {10-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{7-Spades}{a-Hearts}{9-Hearts} board gave Reid a pair of aces on the turn and Dobrescu went from solid stack top zero in a matter of five minutes.

Rough Spell for Arda

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Within two bigger hands, Ozgur Arda has lost half of his stack. First he folded to a hefty river bet and soon after he was check-raised by Adrian Voiculescu on the {j-Hearts}{6-Spades}{2-Diamonds} flop from 4,500 to 20,000. Arda, who only had some 50,000 behind, gave it some thought and elected to fold, dropping below the average stack.

Roig Mateu Busts Two

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante
Johan Guilbert
Johan Guilbert

Liviu Catalin Toderita glanced at his first card and moved all in from early position and Ramon Roig Mateu went over the top in late position to isolate successfully.

Liviu Catalin Toderita: {a-Hearts}{2-Spades}
Ramon Roig Mateu: {5-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}

The board came {4-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{j-Hearts} and that was it for Toderita.

Shortly after, Johan Guilbert got his last 12,700 in and again the Spaniards reshoved to get heads-up into showdown.

Johan Guilbert: {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}
Ramon Roig Mateu: {j-Clubs}{j-Hearts}

"That's how I busted on my first bullet, but I had the jacks," Guilbert said while filming the hand with his smartphone. He found no help on the board {7-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{2-Spades}{3-Spades}{8-Hearts} and bowed out, too.

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Michal Lubas
Michal Lubas

Marian Strachinescu opened and received two callers to the {6-Spades}{6-Clubs}{5-Clubs} flop, on which Michal Lubas in the big blind checked. Strachinescu continued for 4,200 and Pedro Gabriel Andrada Martin called on the button. Lubas then check-raised all in for 22,600 and Strachinescu folded, Andrada Martin quickly called.

Michal Lubas: {k-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}
Pedro Gabriel Andrada Martin: {5-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}

The {10-Hearts} turn gave Lubas some more outs, and he indeed got there with the {10-Spades} river to double in spectacular fashion.

New Big Stacks Emerge

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Ozgur Arda has chipped up and shares a table with Riad Chahaf, while the two seat was vacated for just a few minutes. Aldo Monteleone arrived with a big stack and may very well be a contender for the overnight lead with now plenty of chips at the table.

"Ciao Aldo," Chahaf said when he noticed who had just arrived and Monteleone waved back.

In the meanwhile, Konstantinos Sideris has been eliminated and will have to re-enter on Day 1c or Day 1d.
