O'Rourke Takes One Down

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

The action was opened from early position and Gavin O'Rourke three-bet to 125,000 from middle position. The action folded back around to the initial raiser, and he decided to call and left himself with 185,000 behind. When the flop came down {2-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{4-Spades}, the player first to act bet 65,000 and O'Rouke quickly moved all in.

O'Rouke's opponent thought for a minute before he opted to fold and the Irishman swooped the pot to move over the million mark.

Johann Zeitoun opened from the hijack to 36,000 and got a call in the cutoff. Joey Weissman three-bet to 135,000 and Zeitoun was the only caller.

The flop came {7-}{2-}{7-} with one spade and Zeitoun bet 175,000. Weissman tank-called and the turn was the {10-Spades}. Zeitoun moved all in for 750,000, covering Weissman's 350,000 stack.

Weissman called with {a-Spades}{q-Spades} for ace-high and the nut flush draw. Zeitoun showed {6-}{6-} and they held as the {3-Hearts} rolled off on the turn and Weissman was eliminated.

Manana Closing In On Two Million

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

On a {a-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{2-Spades} river, Joao Rodriguez Manana bet 218,000 into a pot of around that amount. His opponent was Upeshka De Silva.

"Are you bluffing?" asked De Silva. "Feels weird."

He went through a few combinations of hands that Manana could have, hands like ace-seven or six seven.

"Kind of have to call," continued De Silva, before plonking the chips in the middle of the table to call.

Manana turned over {7-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} for two pair and De Silva rechecked his cards before folding and handing over the chips to his opponent. Manana now sits on around 1,900,000 and is a potential chip leader in this event.

Geilich Doubles Up

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Ludovic Geilich had been going along well at the start of Day 2 and, slowly but surely, moved his stack in the right direction. However, he recently had dropped down to the 120,000 mark.

Just now, Geilich was all in with {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs} and able to achieve a full double up after one opponent called and the board ran out {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{7-Hearts} to give the Scotsman trips.

Cure Takes Out Regonaschi

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Marco Regonaschi started the day with 372,000 but has been unable to continue with his chip building in Day 2.

Regonaschi was all in with pocket tens and in a flip against Frenchman Clement Cure who held ace-queen. The flop brought an ace to put Cure in the lead and despite Regonaschi desperately calling for a ten on the river it didn't come, and he was sent to the rail as Cure moved up to 850,000.
