Level 13 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Late registrations were closed at the beginning of Level 11. And the count stopped at 652 entrants for Day 1b.

Adding this number to the 1,562 runners of Day 1a makes a total of 2,214 entrants for the 2023 €2,200 Estrellas Poker Tour High Roller. It is slightly more than last year (2,173 entrants).

Also, Day 1b will stop when 15% of the field remains. This means that 98 players will qualify for Day 2 tonight and will be in the money.

Level 13 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Table 28, Hugo Gomes on the button and Harun Ertural from the big blind flipped their cards preflop, with Gomes being at risk with 36,000 chips.

Hugo Gomes: 2♣2♠
Harun Ertural: 10♣10♦

Quite unhappy when he revealed his cards, Ertural was left dreaming of running deuces because a flop K♥K♠10♥ gave a full house to Gomes. The 8♠ turn and the A♣ river completed the board, and Gomes doubled up.

After this hand, the table broke.

Level 14 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

From middle position, Giovanni Rosadoni moved all in for 35,500 chips. Unfortunately for him, Joshua Boulton in the blinds found one of the best hands and called.

Giovanni Rosadoni: A♠5♠
Joshua Boulton: K♣K♦

As expected, Boulton won the pot on 7♣9♥2♣2♥9♦ and Rosadoni was eliminated.

Level 15 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Martin Zamani opened to 10,000 from the cutoff, then Christopher Wood raised all in for 11,500 chips from the button. The blinds folded, and, of course, Zamani called.

Christopher Wood: Q♥J♣
Martin Zamani: 10♣3♣

While laughing, the two players discovered the flop 10♦8♦A♣ that gave a pair to Zamani, but a straight draw to Wood. And the straight was completed thanks to the turn K♠. So after the river 4♠, Wood doubled up.

Player	Chips	Progress
Martin Zamani	278,000
