Steady Eddy

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

Eddy Sabat had three-bet preflop to 1,575 against Peter Jetten before continuing with a 1,100 bet on the {J-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{5-Spades} flop. Jetten made the call but then both players checked the {A-Clubs} turn and the {Q-Spades} river.

Sabat opened {A-Diamonds}{K-Hearts} and it was enough to win the pot as Jetten mucked. It's a tough looking little corner there with Dan Shak also around.

Cannatella vs. Bevand

Manuel Bevand opened under the gun to 400 only to have Trishelle Cannatella, who was next to act, make it 1,100 to go. Action folded all the way back around to Bevand, he called, and the flop fell {A-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{2-Spades}.

Bevand declined the opportunity to bet, and then quietly folded when Cannatella bet 2,100. It wasn't much of a hand, but it gave us an excuse to update you on both their counts.

Call the Clock!

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante
Leo Fernandez
Leo Fernandez

On the board reading {K-Hearts} {3-Clubs} {2-Diamonds} {5-Clubs} {2-Spades} Argentinian Team PokerStars Pro Leo Fernandez splashed a huge bet of 14,375 which made the Israeli PokerStars qualifier Guy Bachar really take his time to make up his mind.

American player Michael Gagliano got tired of waiting and requested that the dealer calls the clock. Bachar was asked to hurry up and after another minute or so he finally decided to fold.

News in Brief

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante
  • Team PokerStars Pro Dario Minieri is out already. He apparently lost most of his stack when he ran into the set of nines of Massimo Mosele, and busted soon after. At least the chips stayed in Italy.
  • Another Italian Team Pro is fairing much better. Salvatore Bonavena raised to 825 after Andrei Shubin Vladimirovich limped from early position. The Russian called but check-folded to c-bet on the {7-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{k-Hearts} flop.
  • Praz Bansi is back around a poker table for the first time in five months. He's never had that much luck on the European Poker Tour and his day is taking a downward trend. He's on around 12,000 at the moment after tank-checking behind on the river of a {j-Spades}{3-Spades}{5-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} board. He announced that he had nine high, losing out to an opponent's {a-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}.

Get to Know Amanda Kimmel

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante
Amanda Kimmel appeared in three seasons of Survivor.
Amanda Kimmel appeared in three seasons of Survivor.

Remember when Jean-Robert Bellande appeared on Survivor: China? He didn't win the $1-million prize as he was the eighth player voted out, but his exploits were entertaining nonetheless.

Interesting, someone else from that season of Survivor is in today's field—Amanda Kimmel. Her and Trishelle Cannatella, who is also in today's field, are in Barcelona to film a reality show. Coincidentally, Kimmel was on the same tribe as Robert back in Survivor: China, though she did much better and finished as second runner-up.

Kimmel, born August 3, 1984, made a big impression with viewers. The actress, model and former beauty queen went on to participate in Survivor: Micronesia Fans vs. Favorites, finishing as runner-up to Parvati Shallow. Having two close calls to a $1-million payday, Kimmel returned to the show for a third time in Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains as part of the Heroes tribe. She did fairly well, finishing in 9th place, but ultimately fell short of the top prize. All told, Kimmel has spent 108 days playing the game of Survivor.

Kimmel's Survivor days seem to be behind her as she has ventured into the poker word. If she's able to use her survival and manipulation skills to their fullest, she just may walk away with that big million payday she's been looking for.

Kristy Arnett spoke with Kimmel and Cannatella during the PokerStars party here in Barcelona:
