Bennici Doubles Through Big Stack

Level 16 : Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Modar Alsoud, who started the day in the top ten counts, had chipped up a bit when he raised to 10,000 in early position. It folded to Eric Bennici in the cutoff, who decided to wager his stack of 81,000 from the cutoff.

Alsoud asked for a count when it had folded back to him and called shortly after receiving the correct number.

Eric Bennici: AA All in
Modar Alsoud: 77

Alsoud flopped some extra on 684, but neither the 3 turn nor the 8 river provided further help. Bennici doubled with his aces, ending with 35 big blinds in his stack.

La Cava jammed for around 220,000 on the J river. Pihela was slightly covered and called for his tournament life.

La Cava flopped the flush with Q10, besting Pihela's trips as he showed down 32.

Takuma Terada opened to 11,000 in middle position, being met with a three-bet to 40,000 from Romain Nardin in the small blind. Terada called, and did so too when Nardin bet 30,000 on the 722 flop.

The 7 turn double-paired the board, prompting Nardin to check. Terada flicked in a bet of 40,000, and Nardin called.

The 6 river was quickly checked by both players, after which Nardin reluctantly showed A5. Terada played a higher two pair with his 1010, and was awarded the pot as Nardin lost about half his stack thus far.

Julien Dupre, the newest addition to the Red Spade roster, had doubled his start-of-day stack when he raised his small blind to 16,000. Mateusz Wozniak called in the big blind, and the J77 flop was fanned.

Dupre continued for 13,000, again being looked up by Wozniak. Both players then checked the 10 turn through to the 6 river, where Dupre picked the aggression back up with a bet of 12,000.

Wozniak instantly flicked in a calling chip, and his Q10 outkicked the 108 of Dupre to be awarded the small pot.
