Really, this could take a very long time.

Francesco de Vivo limped in on the button and Anton Wigg checked his option.

They checked down the {3-Hearts}

board and de Vivo flipped {7-Clubs}

for two pair. Wigg mucked and de Vivo took the pot.

Action!

[user46392]

The hand started uninspiringly with Francesco de Vivo limping in on the button and Anton Wigg checking to see a {7-Spades}

flop. Wigg bet out 110,000 on the flop, and de Vivo called.

They both checked the {7-Diamonds}

turn and Wigg tried a bet of 225,000 on the {9-Clubs}

river, but this time de Vivo raised to one million. Without delay, Wigg folded.

Anton Wigg raised to 200,000 from the button. Francesco De Vivo hasn't three-bet much, but he did so here. And in a big way. De Vivo slid out a tall stack of 1 million chips, and Wigg slid his cards into the muck.

Fact.

From another member of the media: "Boy, there is nothing happening in this godforsaken tournament right now."

In the last hand, Anton Wigg opened to 200,000 on the button, and Francesco De Vivo called from the big blind. On the flop of {K-Spades}

, De Vivo's leading bet of 275,000 earned him the pot.

See? There's some action for ya. In all seriousness, this sort of play is not unexpected considering the depth and equality of the stacks right now.

Biggest Heads-Up Pot Yet

[user66118]

Anton Wigg appears to have made the minimum raise to 160,000 before the flop, and Francesco De Vivo made the call.

The flop brought out {4-Spades}

, and two checks hinted that this might be yet another ho-hum-check-it-down pot.

Ah, but the turn would bring some action. The {8-Spades}

drew a bet of 400,000 from De Vivo. Wigg didn't waste an awfully long time calling, and the {7-Clubs}

filled out the board. De Vivo led again with a bet of 600,000, and Wigg sat still and considered. After about 30 seconds, he announced a raise, and by the time he'd gathered about 1.6 million chips into his betting area, De Vivo's cards had hit the muck.

That pot pulls Wigg back into the chip lead with 6.6 million to De Vivo's 5.9 million.

Growing Apart

[user66118]

A few more pots of chip-chipping away have allowed Wigg to open up his chip lead a bit. He's just shy of having a two-to-one edge over De Vivo right now.

Action, Interrupted

[user46392]

Francesco de Vivo raised to 225,000, and suddenly everyone got veyr excited as Anton Wigg reraised to 740,000. It was enough, though - de Vivo folded the {A-Clubs}
