Level 30
: 50,000/100,000, 10,000 ante
Since the players have returned from their break with few hands making it to the flop. We thought there would have been some action when the rank amateur [Removed:284] opened to 250,000 with 
but none of his opponents had anything to play back at him with.
At the moment the cards are just not matching up and causing battles, hopefully that will change shortly.

Davidi Kitai opened to 235,000 and Mario Puccini decided to make the call with 
in the button. Andrew Chen looked down and found 
in the hole and tried his luck with squeeze to 760,000.
Kitai stared down Chen for a few moments before reaching for a couple of towers of yellow chips totalling 1,385,000, a rare four-bet. This folded out Puccini and Chen made the correct fold.

[Removed:284] has just doubled through Mario Puccini to leave the latter with 23 big blind.
Puccini opened to 225,000 first in from the small blind and [Removed:287] called from the big blind. The dealer put out the 
flop and Puccini fired a continuation bet of 200,000 only to see [Removed:287] raise all in for 1,800,000! Puccini made the call but he stood up from his seat and winced when he saw his opponent's holding.
Puccini: 
[Removed:287]: 
[Removed:287]'s pair and flush draw meant it was a 50/50 situation but it was soon 100/0 in favour of [Removed:287] because the turn was the . The meaningless 
landed on the river and [Removed:287] flew up the chip counts.
