: 100/200, 25 ante
Team PokerStars Pro Vicky Coren took down the €5k Heads-Up side event last night against Melanie Weisner in the last round. We caught her for a chat out it in the sunshine during the break.
Dario Minieri is back below his starting stack after barreling into a better made hand.
The Team PokerStars Pro opened to 500 from under the gun and was called by two players keen on seeing the 
flop. Minieri continued for 925 and was called by both opponents. The turn fell as 
and Mineri's second barrel for 2,325 was only check-called by Emile Petit from the small blind.
The river was 
and Petit checked to face a 4,225 bet from his Italian opponent. He took longer this time but still called with 
, beating out Minieri's 
.

Level 4
: 100/200, 25 ante
Bored, brassiered and beautifully dressed, the wives and girlfriends should be saluted for sticking around, even when there’s not much to see, as reported on the PokerStars Blog.
Liv Boeree's mind seemed a little absent when the action reached her. She reached for a purple 500 denomination chip and announced a raise. What she hadn't realised was that Flavius Puica had already raised to 525 from the under-the-gun seat. The Team PokerStars Pro was forced min raise to 850 and the bet was called by Puica.
The flop came down 
and both players checked to the 
turn. The Romanian led for 1,100 and and Boeree casually called to the 
river where she faced a check. She bet 2,100 and Puica check-called but mucked upon seeing her 
for a rivered two-pair. Puica just shook his head.

From the cutoff seat, Team PokerStars Pro Johnny Lodden raised to 450. Fellow Team Pro Lex Veldhuis reraised to 1,500 from the button and then action folded to Georges Yazbeck in the big blind. He called, then Lodden called.
The flop came down 
and action checked to Veldhuis. He bet 3,000 and Yazbeck called. Lodden then check-raised to 8,500. With 17,150 behind, Veldhuis took some time and then folded. Yazbeck had other things in mind and reraised all in for 27,025. Lodden quickly called all in for less at 16,950 total.
Lodden tabled the 
for a combo draw and was up against the 
for Yazbeck.
The turn was the 
to give Lodden a straight and now he just needed to dodge a board pair on the river to stay alive.
The river completed the board with the 
and Lodden was safe. He doubled to over 40,000 while Veldhuis gave him a little friendly needle about how badly he plays.
