Konstantinos Nanos

Vittorio Maugini limped 75,000 from under the gun before Konstantinos Nanos moved all in from early position for 260,000. Action folded around to Arnaud Enselme who called in the small blind. Maugini also called.

The flop came {10-Spades}{6-Clubs}{2-Hearts} and Enselme led out for 300,000. Maugini quickly folded.

Konstantinos Nanos: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}
Arnaud Enselme: {j-Clubs}{10-Clubs}

Nanos was facing elimination as Enselme had flopped top pair. The turn and the river didn't help Nanos as it came {5-Diamonds} and the {3-Hearts} to eliminate him from the tournament in eight place for $6,250.

Beg Triples Up

Level 27 : 50,000/75,000, 75,000 ante
Furkan Beg
Furkan Beg

Furkan Beg shoved his final 165,000 from the cutoff, which represented a little over two big blinds. Vittorio Maugini raised the minimum from the button and the blinds folded.

Furkan Beg: {a-Spades}{9-Hearts}
Vittorio Maugini: {j-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}

Beg was in prime position to stick around and did as the board ran out {3-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{2-Spades}{2-Clubs}.

With 200,000 coming from the blinds and antes, Beg more than tripled his stack and is now at 530,000.

With the blinds going up to 50,000/100,000/100,000 and the average stack at just over 14 big blinds, it's truly anybody's title to win.

Maugini Doubles Through Enselme

Level 28 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Arnaud Enselme raised to 205,000 from the cutoff before Vittorio Maugini moved all in for 1,060,000 from the small blind. Enselme quickly called when action was on him.

Vittorio Maugini: {k-Spades}{4-Spades}
Arnaud Enselme: {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}

Enselme was way ahead as his pocket tens just had to fade a king. However Maugini's tournament life was looking safer as the flop came {k-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{6-Spades}. The turn was the {9-Clubs} and the river the {2-Clubs} which gave Maugini the double up and put him in the chip lead.

Arnaud Enselme

Vittorio Maugini opened from under the gun to 200,000 and Arnaud Enselme defended his big blind.

The flop came {3-Hearts}{9-Spades}{a-Diamonds} and Maugini continued for 130,000. Enselme called.

The turn brought the {8-Clubs} and both players checked it down.

On the {9-Diamonds} river, Enselme checked over to Maugini, who bet 425,000. Enselme would go deep into the tank, requiring six of his time bank chips before slamming his chips down.

Maugini could only produce {k-Diamonds}{j-Spades} while Enselme turned over {a-Hearts}{7-Clubs} for the win and a huge swing in his direction.

Level 28 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Dmitry Koleznev raised to 240,000 from the cutoff before Arnaud Enselme moved all in for 2,700,000 from the button. Vittorio Maugini used a time bank card before calling all in for less. Koleznev quickly folded.

Vittorio Maugini: {k-Diamonds}{k-Spades}
Arnaud Enselme: {k-Hearts}{q-Clubs}

Maugini was in great shape and called out the situation to his rail in Italian. The flop came {8-Spades}{5-Spades}{5-Clubs} which kept Maugini in firm control. Enselme was drawing dead on the {3-Diamonds} turn. The river was the {5-Diamonds} which gave Maugini a full house and the double up.

Dmitry Koleznev limped from under the gun. Action folded to James O'Brien was just called from the small blind. Ercan Hasan checked behind in the big blind.

The {4-Diamonds} was the river and O'Brien quickly announced all in for his final 220,000 as the Irishman put his hood on. Koleznev threw his cards into the muck which put O'Brien right back into contention.
