Dimitri Copeland and Dimitrios Kourous were both getting up out of their chairs, and their stacks were being passed to Davide Raschella.

Raschella had aces against his opponents' ace-king and king-jack, it not being entirely clear which hand belonged to which opponent, with the board reading Q108102.

Trips For Solazzo

Level 12 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

It's the Hope that Kills You as Pecelj Falls

Level 11 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Pavle Pecelj
Pavle Pecelj

Pavle Pecelj jammed from the button for 40,000, and received a reluctant call from Dimitri Copeland in the big blind.

Pavle Pecelj: A5 All in
Dimitri Copeland: Q10

Pecelj was ahead, and the A was in the window. However the dealer slightly fumbled the fan, and there was about a second while the ace lay there alone as the flop, and Pecelj must have been contemplating the double.

However it was followed by Q10, giving Copeland two pair, earning murmurs from the table.

Pecelj could not reverse the position on the 8 turn or 3 river, and saw the funny side as he gathered his things.
