Zglavoci's Reprieve Proves Short-Lived

Mihail Zglavoci moved all in for 50,000 from middle position and Paul Vas Nunes called in the cutoff.

Mihail Zglavoci: A♠8♥ All in
Paul Vas Nunes: A♦K♠

Vas Nunes hit top pair on the K♦Q♥2♦ flop and Zglavoci was already standing up from his chair as the 10♠ fell on the turn. The river was the J♠ and both players ended up with a straight to split the pot.

"Stand up works every time," tablemate Asmat Asghar said.

Zglavoci then moved all in again the next hand as Vas Nunes took another shot at taking him out.

Paul Vas Nunes: K♠Q♠

Zglavoci was dominated again as the 8♠8♦7♦ flop left open the possibility of another chop. The 4♣ turn was no help, while Zglavoci couldn't catch a miracle this time on the 6♥ river and was eliminated.

At another table, Ciaran McCullagh was all in for 40,000 from the button and up against Fraser Bellamy in the cutoff.

Fraser Bellamy: A♥5♣

Bellamy came from behind on the Q♥9♦5♥4♥4♦ board to make two pair, earning him the pot and sending McCullagh to the rail.
