Margets Busts Ruzzi in Multi-Way Action

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Leo Margets\
Leo Margets\

Nicola Grieco had raised and was called by Eric Sfez from two seats over, while Matias Ruzzi and Leo Margets also called out of the blinds as well. Four ways to the {k-Spades}{10-Hearts}{3-Spades} flop, the action checked to Grieco and he bet 17,500. Sfez called and Ruzzi then pushed all-in for around 61,000.

Margets moved all-in over the top for 75,000 and Grieco tank-folded, Sfez also got out of the way.

Matias Ruzzi: {a-Spades}{6-Spades}
Leo Margets: {q-Spades}{j-Spades}

"I folded aces," Grieco mentioned in table chat. The {9-Clubs} turn gave Margets a straight and the {7-Diamonds} river sent Ruzzi to the rail as the WSOP bracelet winner soared about the average.

Murrachioli Eliminated by Pirault

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Olivier Murrachioli had raised and then faced the all-in by Francois Pirault on the button for 39,000. A reluctant call by the initial raiser followed and the cards were turned over.

Olivier Murrachioli: {k-Clubs}{q-Hearts}
Francois Pirault: {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}

The {8-Spades}{4-Hearts}{2-Spades}{6-Clubs}{4-Clubs} board spelled the end for Murrachioli, as he was covered with a stack of 31,500.

Beresford Chips Up Through Colillas

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

In a battle small blind versus button, Ramon Colillas checked the {a-Clubs}{9-Spades}{2-Clubs} flop and Conor Beresford bet 12,000 for Colillas to call. The same action repeated on the {10-Spades} turn for 36,000 and Colillas then led the {6-Clubs} river for 22,000.

Beresford was visibly confused by the line but eventually dropped in calling chips after some consideration. Colillas mucked his cards to forfeit the pot and Beresford earned the pot without the need to show his cards.

Van Rooij Puts Tsokaridis in the Tank

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

A flop of {j-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} was spread across the felt and Merijn van Rooij had a bet of 4,500 in front of him on the button. Paraskevas Tsokaridis check-raised to 12,000 in middle position and van Rooij called.

The turn was the {4-Spades} and both players checked to the {j-Diamonds} on the river. Tsokaridis checked again and van Rooij shoved all in, putting Tsokaridis to the test for his remaining 31,000 chips. After nearly four minutes, Tsokaridis finally let his hand go and van Rooij was awarded the pot.

Naveiro Martin Doubles Through Abdelmoumene

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Karim Abdelmoumene three-bet to 12,000 out of the small blind and then reluctantly called the shove by the initial raiser Inigo Naveiro Martin for 42,000 total.

Inigo Naveiro Martin: {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades}
Karim Abdelmoumene: {10-Diamonds}{10-Spades}

The dominated pair had no equity anymore until the {7-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{q-Hearts} turn to make the {j-Diamonds} river a formality.
