Another three players have been eliminated including Andrei Nodea and Pablo Sanz Quiles. The latter bluffed off a big chunk very early on to Martin Wendt and several other players on his former table have already chipped up.

Katie Swift can also be found there, but she just took a hit when check-calling a bet of 4,700 on the {K-Spades}{J-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}{10-Clubs} river. Hallstein Boerve on the button showed {8-Spades}{6-Spades} for the flush and Swift mucked.

Shahar Drops One Pot; Leledakis Doubles

Level 2 : 100/100, 100 ante

Israel's Ran Shahar has been visiting Romania several times for poker tournaments and has joined the action once more. He can currently be found on one of the newly opened tables alongside Andrei Alecu, Alexandre Reard and Andreas Leledakis who was moved there.

Shahar and Alecu invested 1,600 to see a flop of {Q-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}, which went check, check. After the {2-Clubs} turn, Shahar bet and Alecu folded to get shown the {A-Diamonds}.

Soon after, Michal Kulesza opened to 300 and was called two ways. Leledakis jammed for the last 3,000 in the big blind and Kulesza called.

Andreas Leledakis: {9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}
Michal Kulesza: {A-Hearts}{J-Spades}

The board came {8-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{K-Spades}{4-Spades} and Leledakis doubled.

Marius Pertea and Traian Bostan secured back-to-back titles for Romanian on home soil when taking down the Unibet Open Bucharest Main Events in consecutive years. Pertea just sat down and Bostan has already been in action for some time over on table one right next to Ian Simpson.

Bostan just now got involved into a pot with Dumitru Pora and bet the {K-Spades}{5-Spades}{4-Spades}{Q-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} river for 7,000 into a pot of 9,000. Pora had checked and eventually released his cards into the muck.

Wendt Starts Hot

Level 1 : 100/100, 0 ante

On a flop of {A-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{6-Hearts}, Martin Wendt in the cutoff checked and called a bet of 300 by Pablo Sanz Quiles on the button. The {7-Hearts} turn was checked by Wendt and Sanz Quiles fired another 1,800, again Wendt came along. The {2-Clubs} river completed the board and Wendt checked the third street in a row.

Sanz Quiles now overbet 5,700 and Wendt took 90 seconds before making the call. It was a good one, as Sanz Quiles tabled {J-Clubs}{9-Hearts} for a bluff, while Wendt won the hand with {A-Hearts}{4-Clubs} for top pair.
