Wang Eliminated by Martirosian

Level 6 : 200/500, 500 ante

Michael Wang faced a raise to 1,200 by Artur Martirosian in the cutoff and clicked it back to 4,000 on the button. Martirosian squeezed to 11,500 and Wang emptied the clip by moving all in for 37,200. Martirosian asked for a count and made the call with the superior stack size after a minute of consideration.

Michael Wang: {10-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}
Artur Martirosian: {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}

The board came {q-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{j-Hearts}{3-Hearts} and Wang failed to connect with the board.

Sergio Castelluccio
Sergio Castelluccio

Fulvio Barbisan has been eliminated and a quick look at his former table reveals a big stack for Sergio Castelluccio. Other bigger stacks from not long ago were also among those to depart such as Fred Weiss, and Luca Marchetti.

Matthias Hansen never recovered from the kings versus aces setup and table neighbor Raffaello Locatelli is also gone, as is PokerStars ambassador Fatima Moreira De Melo.
