Hand #57 - Minieri

Minieri raises to his favorite number from the button -- the 81,000 is enough to make his opponents fold, and he adds their blinds and antes to his stack.

Hand #58 - Minieri

Fischer makes it 65,000, only to be reraised to 190,000 total by Justin Filtz.

But wait, Dario Minieri comes over the top for a mammoth 600,000!

As Minieri leans his chin against his clasped hands, Filtz mulls over his next move whilst riffling through his chips. He peers over at the stack of Minieri and asks if he will show his hand. Minieri remains statuesque and doesn't respond.

Filtz folds.

Minieri's Fans Out in Force

Of our three remaining players, chip leader Dario Minieri is by far the most well-supported here today. His railers, besides outnumbering those of his opponents, and dwarfing them in volume whenever their man wins a pot, include such luminaries of Italian poker as Cristiano Blanco, Robert Binelli and the father and son team that is Claudio and Luca Pagano.

Hand #62 - Minieri

Minieri just makes up the blind, and Fischer checks. They see a flop.

Flop: {7-Spades} {7-Diamonds} {4-Clubs} -- check, check.

Turn: {2-Clubs}

Now Minieri fires out a slightly-more-than-minimum 42,000. It's enough, and Fischer passes.
