Fabrizio Petrucciani had been set all-in for his last 15,000 or so by Team PokerStars Pro Barry Greenstein on a 
board, the Italian debating before finally calling off his stack with 
, Greenstein flipped 
and survived on the 
turn and 
river.
Greenstein up to 85,000
Vitaly Lunkin opened to 3,600 from UTG and got called in three spots including Tristan Clemencon and Cristian Petrullo before Marcello Boschetti reraised all-in from the big blind for 25,800. Lunkin then moved all-in behind him for 27,800 and everyone else folded, all tanking for a couple of minutes each.
Lunkin turned over 
to Boschetti's 
needing a king to save him. and the flop indeed came 
.
"Norrrrrrr! Asssss!" shouted Boschetti, "Asssser, assser, assser!"
The turn was the 
.
"Assssss!"
The 
came on the river, changing nothing and a dejected Boschetti was left to collect his things and head to the rail. Lunkin is up to 65,000.
Gregory Genovese and Michael Tabarelli have just ganged up on Tom MacDonald, but the youngster from the Uk came out of the scrape in better shape than the two Italians.
It was a three way all-in.
Genovese: 
MacDonald: 
Tabarelli: 
Board: 
The outcome was a quite incredible double up for Genovese who now has 35,000, Tabarelli was eliminated and MacDonald moved up to 125,000.
Casey Kastle is up to 95,000 after raising to 4,100 in early position and getting called by both Atanas Gueorguiev in the small blind and Massimiliano Forti in the big. A continuation bet of 10,000 from Kastle on the 
was enough to push the two callers off, though, and Kastle got the pot.
As we crept into the wee small hours of today Thomas Kremser had announced the last three hands of day 1b. We were standing next to Stefano Alberto Servalli and it was looking likely that he was going to be our chip leader. We all know that it didn't turn out that way but Servalli still bagged up 202,400.
We have just seen him being put to the test on the river and he folded on a board of 
to a 28,000 bet by his opponent. The pot wasn't a particularly heavy one but the fold has left Servalli with only 70,000 in front of him leaving everyone, including him, scratching their heads.
Salvatore Erittu was all in with 
against David Vamplew's when we arrived; the board ran out and Erittu was gone.
"Gotta hold!" said Vamplew to the ceiling in a mixture of joy and relief.
"Run better," said tablemate Cole Robinson. The EPT London champion is up to around 230,000.
We don't know the details, but we do know that Antoine Saout is busto and the assassin was amiable Canadian Xuan Liu. She is now up to 260,000.
Morten Mortensen, who finalled the EPT at Snowfest, started today with a below average stack of around 35,000 but has now boosted himself to about 100,000. He had seen his 14,500 bet on the turn of a 
board check-raised to 31,000 by Domenico Spinelli. Mortensen made the call and then Spinelli intriguingly checked the river, Mortensen did not check back however and instead bet 29,000 which was quickly called by the Italian.
Mortensen tabled 
and Spinelli nodded and mucked.
