Sidhu and Brandstrom Chip Up
Level 31
: 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Diego Falcone limped the small blind and Kully Sidhu raised the big blind, Falcone folded.
Sidhu then raised to 450,000 in the small blind to force a fold from Simon Brandstrom in the big blind.
One hand later, Brandstrom raised to 525,000 in the small blind and Rui Sousa defended the big blind. The flop came 
and Brandstrom continued for 700,000. Sousa folded and Brandstrom double-checked his cards before sliding them into the muck with a smile on the face.
Both Falcone and Pasquale Braco lost a decent portion of their stack since coming back from the break and will need to pick up pots very soon.
