Stellato Stunned by Aces

Level 7 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Andrea Stellato limped from under the gun and then called when Ivan Salvaggio raised to 4,400.

Stellato checked in the dark and Salvaggio checked following the {j-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{7-Spades} flop. Stellato bet 7,500 on the {10-Spades} turn and was called.

Stellato checked on the {q-Diamonds} river and went into the tank after his opponent bet 7,500. He made up his mind and tossed in calling chips before seeing the bad news as his opponent turned over his {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds} which prompted Stellato to muck his cards.

Mizzi Gets Lucky to Double

Level 6 : 400/800, 800 ante

With around 25,000 in the middle on a board showing the {10-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{2-Spades}, Mikael Bratt (early position) bet 11,000 before calling the 37,300 all-in from Marion Mizzi (late position).

Marion Mizzi: {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}
Mikael Bratt: {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}

Mizzi was drawing to a straight while Bratt had flopped top set. The {j-Spades} hit the river to give the at-risk player a lifeline. Bratt couldn't believe what happened as the dealer passed the pot to Mizzi.
