Grane Bosch Doubles Through Haji Srifi

Level 3 : 100/200, 200 ante

With around 5,500 in the middle to the {k-Spades}{9-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} river, Albert Grane Bosch pushed for the 8,400 he had behind. Oussama Haji Srifi reluctantly called and then sighed when his opponent tabled the {a-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} for the nut flush. Haji Srifi only had {k-Hearts}{q-Diamonds} for the top pair and dropped to around one third of the starting stack.

Dogra Dogra Back in the Mix

Level 2 : 100/200, 0 ante

After becoming the first casualty of the tournament, Harcharan Dogra Dogra wasted little time to take advantage of the re-entry option. He was once more involved in a bigger pot in which he checked the {j-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{3-Clubs} river out of the big blind. His opponent on the button made it 11,000 to go and Dogra Dogra sigh-called.

The button mucked his cards to forfeit the pot and Dogra Dogra exposed the {k-Spades}{k-Clubs} for a set of kings.

Renaga Nunez Eliminated by Avela

Max Avela
Max Avela

It remains unclear when the chips went in but Ferran Renaga Nunez headed out of the tournament area with his {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds} still exposed. Max Avela was raking in the pot as his {6-Spades}{3-Spades} had flopped bottom pair and turned trips treys on a board of {10-Clubs}{4-Spades}{3-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{8-Spades} to reduce the field by one.

Quads for Mesas Collado

Level 2 : 100/200, 0 ante

Jaime Bertran Mainou had previously lost a portion of his stack and ended up check-calling the {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{a-Spades} river for 1,000. Jose Maria Mesas Collado turned over {a-Hearts}{5-Spades} for quad aces and dragged in the pot.

Dogra Dogra First Casualty of the Day

Level 2 : 100/200, 0 ante

It has been a day to forget for Harcharan Dogra Dogra, who steadily lost chips in the first level. The dealer on his table just announced a seat open and sure enough, it was Dogra Dogra who headed to the rail.

On his former table Yogev Ohayon and Guillem Garriga Gairaud had chipped up while 888poker ambassador Sam Abernathy sat down this very second one table over.

Majed Chips Up With Aggression

Level 2 : 100/200, 0 ante

Three ways to the {k-Spades}{j-Spades}{9-Spades} flop, the action checked to Rene Majed and he bet 1,200. Kian Khaleghian in the cutoff then raised it up to 6,000 and Vivian Saliba in the big blind folded after some consideration.

Majed, however, stuck around and the {5-Spades} turn was checked by both. The {10-Hearts} fell on the river and Majed bet 14,500 with 11,200 behind. Khaleghian gave it some consideration and was very close to toss in a single chip for the call before changing his mind and folding.

Avela "Sometimes Has a Hand"

Level 2 : 100/200, 0 ante

On the tail end of a heads-up pot between Tomasz Brzezinski from under the gun and Max Avela, the latter bet the {10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{9-Spades}{8-Hearts} river for 4,000. Brzezinski mulled it over for a few seconds and tossed in a single T-5,000 chip for the call. Avela rolled over the {q-Hearts}{j-Clubs} for the nut straight and his opponent mucked.

"You know, sometimes I actually do have a hand," the Finn grinned.

Escrigas Roca Wins Solid Showdown Pot

Level 2 : 100/200, 0 ante

In a three-bet pot to the {9-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} flop, no betting action took place and the same also applied for the {6-Spades} on the turn. Joan Escrigas Roca then faced a bet worth 3,000 on the {4-Hearts} river and called after a few seconds of consideration.

His opponent tabled the {k-Hearts}{10-Hearts} for a bluff and Escrigas Roca earned the pot with {a-Spades}{q-Spades} for ace-queen high.
