Spano Fires on Hearts
Level 22
: 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Robert Spano opened from under the gun to 40,000 and got called by Ewen Trevidy on the button and Marco Regonaschi in the big blind.
The flop came out a monotone A♥K♥2♥ and Regonaschi checked to the preflop aggressor. Spano put out a continuation-bet of 55,000, which Trevidy immediately folded to. Regonaschi spent a minute or so in the tank before making the call.
The turn came a fourth heart with the 8♥ and Spano fired again for 75,000 after another check from Regonaschi. Regonaschi did not like the red cards on the table, as he now quickly folded his hand.

Ripper Finds a Double as Field Thins
Level 22
: 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Wagner Ripper is still hopeful to make back-to-back final tables in the €2,200 FPS High Roller. He finished third in the iteration at EPT Paris for €136,050 and is looking to best that score here in Monte Carlo.
When Viliyan Petleshko raised his button to 40,000, Ripper ripped in his stack of 250,000 from the big blind and received an instantaneous call from Petleshko.
Wagner Ripper: Q♥Q♦
Viliyan Petleshko: 9♥9♠
Ripper was a huge favorite to double up and achieved that feat when the board ran out J♥6♠6♥J♠10♥, keeping his dream of a victory alive.

Petleshkov Doubles Through Ripper
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Viliyan Petleshkov raised to 40,000 in the hijack and was called by Wagner Ripper on the button and Azzedine Mehal in the big blind. The flop fell K♥6♠5♠ and Petleshkov continued with a bet of 55,000. Ripper ripped all in for 500,000 and Mehal thought for over a minute before opting to fold. Petleshkov instantly called off his stack of 315,000 and the cards were face up.
Viliyan Petleshkov: K♣K♦
Wagner Ripper: K♠J♥
The 7♣ on the turn meant Ripper was already drawing dead and the A♠ on the river secured the double for Petleshkov.
