Sammartino Back In
Level 7
: 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
The second bullet of Phil Ivey, who sits next to Paul Phua, appears to be much better than the first attempt, and Ivey has almost doubled up his stack.
Dario Sammartino also jumped back in, and the Italian was immediately greeted by Benjamin Wu with plenty of aggression. Sammartino in under the gun and Wu in the big blind headed to the river of a board 
and Wu bet 55,000 into a pot of around 70,000. Sammartino gave his opponent a staredown, but ultimately decided to fold.
Another quick strategy talk with fellow Italian Mustapha Kanit followed before Sammartino returned to his seat after the blinds passed through him.
