There isn't a plethora of Portuguese players here today, but Sergio Bessa has been making up for the lack of man-power by finding more action than a Die Hard box set. After a messy A-J versus A-Q encounter on a 9-6-3-A-3 board dissected Bessa's stack in half, the Portuguese amateur pushed with kings, and was paid off by jacks to see his stack jump back up to the 8,000 mark. The exhausted expression on his face suggested he'd be hoping for a quieter second level.
