Sanchez Nearly Doubles

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 2,000 ante
Sergio Rodriguez Sanchez - good call
Sergio Rodriguez Sanchez - good call

The board read {a-Spades}{j-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} by the river and Emiliano Bono bet 70,000. Sergio Rodriguez Sanchez, with just 90,000 left to his name, attempted to go all in - but he failed to do so in a single motion and it was ruled a flat call.

So with just 20,000 back, Sanchez turned over a relatively modest {j-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} for two pair, ten kicker - and discovered that it was good. Bono mucked and dropped to 380,000; Sanchez nearly doubled to 175,000, still just 10 big blinds or so.

Andrea Ferrari Eliminated in 20th Place (€15,000)

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 2,000 ante
Andrea Ferrari
Andrea Ferrari

Andrea Ferrari's remarkable comeback is over, as Richard Toth gets back all the chips he recently lost doubling Ferrari up. It was a preflop confrontation, Ferrari raising to 50k under the gun, and Toth making it 110k next to him. When it came back to Ferrari, he reached over to shake Toth's hand before moving all in - a prescient move as he flipped up {Q-Clubs}{Q-Spades} but shook his head at Toth's {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}.

The board ran out {6-Spades}{6-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{K-Spades} and Ferrari went to pick up his cash with a final chat in Italian.

Toth Gets Some Revenge On Ferrari

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 2,000 ante

Team PokerStars Pro Richard Toth is approaching the one million chip mark after taking down a pot involving Andrea Ferrari.

Toth opened the betting to 45,000 from under the gun and the raise folded out all of the field except Ferrari in the big blind. Ferrari, fresh from his double up against Toth a few hands earlier, made the call both players saw the {j-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{10-Spades} flop. Ferrari checked then insta-folded to a 43,000 continuation bet from the Hungarian.

Toth now sits behind 900,000 in chips, whilst Ferrari has 340,000 at his disposal

Nulli Approaching Nil

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 2,000 ante

Roberto Nulli is the tournamrent short stack with 20 players remaining, and has just lost even more ground when he bet-folded to an Ion Pavel raise.

The action folded to Nulli in the small blind and he raised to 43,000. Pavel made the call and it was heads-up to the {4-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{2-Spades} flop. Nulli fired out a bet of 40,000 but Pavel threw a spanner in the works and raised all-in. Pavel covered Nulli by a great margin.

"Show if I fold," pleaded Nulli but all he received back was a shrug of the shoulders. Eventually, after almost two minutes, Nulli folded and was shown {q-Diamonds} by Pavel.

Ferrari Wins Race From Way Behind

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 2,000 ante
Andrea Ferrari: nine lives
Andrea Ferrari: nine lives

Andrea Ferrari has doubled up to 370,000 after a bit of good fortune. He moved in preflop in an open spot, and Richard Toth moved in over the top directly to his left. This larger stack dissuaded the blinds from getting involved, and they were on their backs:

Toth: {A-Clubs}{K-Spades}
Ferrari: {K-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}

The first visible card was the {J-Clubs}, followed by {5-Clubs}{7-Spades}{8-Hearts}{7-Clubs} and Ferrari actually said, "Mamma mia!" as he apologetically scooped up the chips.

Josh Prager Eliminated in 21st Place (€15,000)

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 2,000 ante
Josh Prager
Josh Prager

Denis Kipnis min-raised to 40,000 in the hijack but in the cutoff Josh Prager reraised to 110,000. Roberto Romanello folded his button and immediately got up and told anyone who would listen that he'd folded pocket tens - "I didn't feel it," he said. Sure enough, Kipnis now reraised to 196,000. Prager called.

The flop came down {2-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{a-Diamonds} and Kipnis bet out a suspiciously small 77,000. Prager immediately announced all in, Kipnis immediately called, and they were on their backs. It was the coldest of cold decks for Prager.

Prager: {9-Spades}{9-Hearts} for middle set
Kipnis: {a-Spades}{a-Hearts} for top set

Turn: {j-Spades}

River: {a-Clubs} making Kipnis some unnecessary but rather attractive quads

Finally Romanello could share his big fold with the table. "Hey, I folded pocket tens."

Said the cheerful Kipnis, "Why so tight you play?"

Hollink Slip Sliding Away

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 2,000 ante
Rob Hollink - Not a happy bunny
Rob Hollink - Not a happy bunny

Rob Hollink has lost some serious ground in the last couple of orbits and currently finds himself down to 370,000, which will not please his fans in the shoutbox!

On a board reading {9-Spades}{10-Spades}{a-Clubs}{10-Hearts}, Manuel Bevand checked and Hollink checked behind but not before he had shaped to bet. The {q-Spades} showed up on the river and again Bevand checked, Hollink did bet this time around, a total of 115,000 chips but instantly mucked when Bevand made it 300,000 to play.

Bevand has no passed the one million chip mark. Well done that man
