De Visscher Back in the Game

Koen De Visscher
Koen De Visscher

Koen De Visscher was The Man earlier in the day until he lost pot after pot for a near million chip down swing. His day is finishing off nicely though with a double up.

All the chips went in pre flop between himself and Jose Manuel Nadal.

De Visscher: {j-Spades}{j-Hearts}
Nadal: {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}

The board ran {9-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}. The Belgian has a smile back upon his face now.

Alvarez's Hand Declared Dead

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 1,000 ante

Carlos Lauro Mora Alvarez has just had his hand declared dead after taking far too long to act. He was facing a bet of 143,000 from Alexandre Andermatt, a bet that essentially put Alvarez all in as he only had 220,000 behind and calling, losing and being left with just 80,000 would be disastrous.

We'd been stood waiting for something to happen but Alverez just sat there staring at the board, eventually Andrea Benellli, who was not involved in the hand, called the clock on him.

"He had 10 seconds left on my own clock," said Jannick Wrang

Luca Vivaldi came over and started the countdown and he got all the way to zero, which meant Alverez's hand was dead. Andermatt adds even more chips to his stack.

Break Time

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Players are now on a short break. We only have to lose two more players before play ends for the night.

Federici Runs the Gauntlet

With two players having to sit out because of penalties and UTG folding, the table was basically three-handed and Piero Federici had four-bet all in with {8-}{3-} against David Vamplew but the latter held {A-}{K-} to knock him out. Just on the break though the Scot lost a sizeable pot to Mario Nagel, he called a 78,000 bet on the turn of a {K-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{7-Hearts}{10-Hearts} board but then folded to a 145,000 bet on the {4-Spades} river.
