Level 21
: 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
The tournament is now on a 75-minute dinner break.
With 132,000 already in the pot and the board reading 
Amerigo Santoro shoved all in for 333,000 and after a minute or so Marco Fantini answered with a call.
Santoro showed 
for a straight and Fantini mucked. The dealer caught Fantini's hand and opened 
. After recounting Fantini's stack it turned out that it was just 10,000 chips bigger than Santoro's leaving Fantini with almost nothing.
On the very next hand Fantini shoved his remaining 10,000 from under the gun, but had to wait before he found out if it was his last hand of the tournament as Dimitar Danchev on his immediate left raised to 35,000 and was called by Artem Metalidi in the big blind.
The dealer flipped 
on the flop and both players checked. They did the same on the 
turn and on the 
river. Danchev opened 
for a pair of aces which was good enough to beat Metalidi's 
.
Fantini flashed his 
and left the table.
Tiziano Mosca moved all in under the gun for 210,000 and received a call from Francesco Lorenzini in the hijack. The rest of the field got out of the way and the cards were turned on their back.

Mosca:  |
Lorenzini:  |
Mosca was looking for either an ace or some diamonds, but he would be left wanting as the board ran out 
. With that, Mosca took his leave just shy of the dinner break; meanwhile, Matteo Colantoni was eliminated one table over.
We caught up to see the remnants of a hand where Artem Litvinov was able to get his stack of 169,000 all in against Ismael Bojang. Bojang held against Litvinov's 
on a board of 
.
The rest of the board fell 
and 
and Litvinov was able to double up with Broadway.
There's people who play with heart and passion, and then there's another level above and beyond, that's saved for Ludovic Lacay.
The Frenchman opened from the hijack and bet the flop. Francesco Lorenzini peeled from the big blind and called the c-bet.
On the turn the board read 
and Lorenzini check-called a 125,000 bet. The river fell 
and Lacay shoved for 434,000 when the action was checked to him for a third time.
Lorenzini had 481,000 back so the call was effectively for his tournament life. He thought for five minutes and then folded after Lacay called the clock on him.
Before Lacay dragged all the chips in he opened his holding of 
!
