Capdevila as Big Stack

Level 9 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Among the most recent casualties were Bogdan Berinde, Nasser Khelifi, Florin Pandilica and Simonas Eigminas. The latter sent over his stack to Jose Luis Capdevila and the player from Chile emerged as one of the big stacks. Capdevila is traveling the world with his girlfriend and was in Easter Europe just now when he noticed the upcoming event online. The quick stop here in Bucharest may prove very profitable indeed.

Poor Flops Incredibly Well to Bust Dubonnet

Level 9 : 800/1,600, 200 ante
Samy Dubonnet
Samy Dubonnet

After a raise and a three-bet by Yzhak Poor Rafi out of the big blind, initial raiser Samy Dubonnet moved all in for 40,000 and was quickly called by initial raiser Dubonnet.

Samy Dubonnet: {A-Spades}{A-Diamonds}
Rafi Yzhak Poor: {A-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}

The magic flop of {8-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{5-Hearts} gave Rafi the nut flush, and the {Q-Spades} turn and {4-Spades} river brought no runner runner miracle anymore.

No Help for Sas

Level 9 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

While the hand-for-hand on the money bubble of the €2,200 High Roller continues without any major action for the past 20 minutes, the €1,100 Main Event has entered level nine and several players ran out of chips. Among them were Toni Englund, Ioana Silvana Apostol and Gusti Adrian Sas.

Sas was all in for around 18,000 with the {J-Hearts}{10-Hearts} and Ohana Shlomo called with the superior stack and {A-Clubs}{10-Spades}. The board came {10-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} and that was it for Sas.

Givony Flushes Yakimov

Level 8 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

A loud celebration came from table five and the cards of Plamen Yakimov were already in the muck while Tom Givony doubled. His {10-Spades}{10-Clubs} were still visible and the double up was for just 9,400 with most of the stack already in prior until the {K-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{7-Spades}{2-Spades} turn.

Yakimov had put Givony at risk with {K-Hearts}{J-Hearts} only to see the {3-Spades} on the river complete a four-card flush for the player from Israel.

"I am the Worst"

Level 8 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

On the tail end of a board {5-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}, Martin von Zweigbergk faced a bet of 7,300 by Guy Ohayon and called to fully expect a queen for top pair as per table chat. Ohayon however only showed {A-Spades}{4-Spades} for second-bottom pair and von Zweigbergk turned over the winning {9-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} for a pair of fives.

"I am the worst," the Finn added after sipping on his beer, and has joined the top stacks in level eight.
