Tiziano Bellagamba had moved in for his last 14,100 on a flop of 

and Anthony Kozlowski raised all in behind for 85,000. Sergio Castelluccio tanked for several minutes before folding his hand and Bellagamba turned over the 
which was surprisingly ahead of Kozlowski's 
.
The
turn meant it was all over and the
river was rendered meaningless. Kozlowski is up to 130,000.
Tom MacDonald is hovering around between the 90-120k mark. It seems every time we walk past the table he is playing in a hand. Here he was clashing with Daniel Sjogren.
MacDonald raised to 5,100 and Sjogren called after asking for a count. The flop was a very black
and both players checked. The turn brought some colour to proceedings with the
but neither player fancied having a bet. A fourth spade landed on the river in the shape of
and almost inevitably it was MacDonald who fired first. The bet was 9,000 and after studying the board for a long time Sjogren surrendered his hand to the dealer.
Diego Testa raised to 4,800 from under the gun and John Eames called in the big blind. The flop was
and Eames check-called a 4,800 Testa bet. The turn was the
and again Eames check-called; this time for 10,000. On the river we saw the
make an appearance and Eames checked to Testa who fired his third consecutive barrel for 21,500.
Eames played out the hand in his head but was having difficulties making a decision. In the end someone called the clock and with Testa shouting in his ear to fold Eames did in fact fold. Testa smacked the felt in acknowledgement of his good fold and turned over a pair of kings for a flopped set.
Players are on a 15 minute break once more.

We just caught the very end of the hand, with Claudio Marino checking and after a pause Vanessa Selbst checking behind on the river of an 



board. Marino turned over 
but it was no good - Selbst turned over 
and boosted her stack to 275,000. She asked him whether he would have called a bet on the river; he didn't seem certain.
Simeon Naydenov seems to be in free-fall after losing over 200,000 chips in the past level. He nows has 112,000 in chips and has fallen from the top of perch and lies with the middle of the pack.
We caught up with one of his losses on a flop of
. Naydenov had checked the action over to his opponent who bet 15,700. Naydenov put enough yellow chips into the middle to put his opponent all-in and he called instantly. Naydenov was holding
and his opponent held
for trips. The straight card was found wanting and Naydenov found himself with 112,000 chips.
