Italian Hopes Stay Alive
Angelo Recchia raised to 120,000 under the gun only to have Ludovic Lacay three-bet to 250,000 a couple of spots over. The rest of the field got out of the way, Recchia four-bet to 520,000, and Lacay moved all in. Recchia, who is the last Italian remaining in the tournament, called off for 1.58 million and the cards were turned up.
