Uzan Builds Stack Early, Eliminates Cappiello
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
The day had just started, and the short-stacks were bent on building their stacks, as was the case with Candido Cappiello, at risk, and Ludovic Uzan, who were engaged in an all-in showdown.
Candido Cappiello: K♦Q♦
Ludovic Uzan: A♠J♠
Cappiello was looking at a potential double-up when the flop dropped 4♣K♣8♣. But the turn A♥, pushed Uzan back into the lead. Cappiello, not receiving any help on the 7♥ river, became one of the first few players eliminated.
