Welcome back to Day 3 of the EPT9 Sanremo here at Casino Sanremo. What started with 797 players has been whittled down to 152, all of whom are looking to make the money at the top 120. That means 32 players will leave today empty handed.
Odds are Inge Forsmo will not be among them as he enters play as the chip leader with a massive 606,100, more then 100K more than his next closest competitor. Some other players that will carry big stacks into Day 3 are Charly Maracchione (505,800), Jason Tompkins (500,000), Lorenzo Sabato (387,900), Matt Salsberg (338,700) and Yevgeniy Timoshenko (336,300).
They will be joined by the likes of David Vamplew (294,800), Shaun Deeb (188,800), Ludovic Lacay (183,100), Isaac Haxton (148,800), Todd Terry (97,500) and Rupert Elder (31,500); as well as, Team PokerStars Pros Ana Marquez (162,000), Jude Ainsworth (138,700), Luca Moschitta (104,400), Liv Boeree (81,400), Chris Moneymaker (70,600), Mickey Petersen (66,500), Jose Barbero (65,100), Andre Akkari (46,300) and Pius Heinz (43,600). Interestingly, Boeree is looking to capture her second EPT Sanremo title in four seasons after taking it down back in Season 6.
Who will be the next to add their name to this prestigious list?

Unfortunately we're experiencing some internet issues here in San Remo, which should be fixed any moment! Thanks for your patience.
Sorry folks, had some problems with the internet connection here at Casino Sanremo, but they've seem to be fixed and we're back and running again.
Kyle Cheong opened for 6,000 under the gun and cleared the field all the way to Chris Moneymaker, who defended from the big blind. Both players proceeded to check the flop, and then Moneymaker led out for 11,000 on the turn. Cheong folded and the Team PokerStars Pro won an easy pot.
As soon as the hand was over, Mauro Mancin began asking each player their name. While Mancin didn’t seem know either Shaun Deeb, who won five SCOOPs this past spring, nor Matt Salsberg, who took down the WPT Paris last month, he was familiar with another player at the table. “Chris Moneymaker I know,” Mancin said. It goes to show you, the man who sparked the poker boom is still well known all across the globe.

Rupert Elder’s dream of becoming the first double EPT and first double EPT Sanremo champion is over.
He found pocket eights in the big blind and three-bet all in over the open from Alexander Zayonts in early position. Zayonts called with pocket tens and safely navigated the board.

“Seat open Table 16,” we heard a dealer yell. We made our way over to discover Sam Trickett, who had finished as the Day 1b chip leader, taking his leave. The dealer was quick in mucking his cards, but it appeared to us he held on a board of . Unfortunately for him, Carmelo Vasta held for the nut flush.
By the looks of it, a short-stacked Trickett had shipped all in from the button and was called by Vasta in the big blind. The flop was safe for the Brit, but running spades on the turn and river felled him short of the money.

Action began with a raise by Sergey Baburin to 6,000 from under the gun. Michele Di Lauro called from the cutoff and Amerigo Santoro tagged along from the button. Team PokerStars pro Jose “Nacho” Barbero moved all in for 64,200 from the small blind, sending Baburin into the tank.
Eventually Baburin let go of his hand and Di Lauro made the call. Santoro quickly folded from the button and we were off to the races.
Barbero:

Barbero’s eights held on the flop. The turn, however, spelled disaster for Barbero, as the rolled off and paired 4503. The completed the board and Barbero’s tournament came to an end early here on Day 3. 4503 reached out to shake Barbero’s hand as the pot was pushed his way, but Barbero quickly stormed away from the table without saying a word.
Scooping this pot brings Di Lauro’s stack up to about 380,000.
