Double Dutch

Level 13 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

There are probably only a handful of Dutchmen — if that — in the 888poker LIVE Madrid Main Event, and two of them are seated at the same table.

"It's unbelievable," said Kees van Brugge as PokerNews approached his table. "He rebuys on the last hand of the last level and people just keep on giving him chips!"

The player he was referring to was countryman Jonas Ten Cate seated opposite him, who sits with 455,000 — more than Van Brugge's 380,000.

Josh Manley

Josh Manley booked his place in Day 2 after bagging over 300,000 chips in the Turbo Day 1d flight earlier today, and has picked up where he left off by almost doubling that within the first level.

According to Manley, he got {a-}{a-} in against {10-}{10-} and {4-}{4-} and held thanks to an ace in the window. He now sits on close to 575,000 — in touching distance of the overall chip lead.

Defending Champion Aspas Busts Pineiro

Level 12 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Blind on blind, Andres Pineiro was all in for a small amount holding {10-Spades}{8-Diamonds} against the {a-Spades}{7-Diamonds} of defending 888poker LIVE Madrid champion Abel Aspas.

The flop {j-Spades}{10-Clubs}{7-Spades} gave Pineiro a pair but the turn {k-Spades} gave Aspas the nut flush draw. The river {a-Diamonds} was enough, however, forhim to eliminate Pineiro
