Level 9
: 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Maria Lampropulos just entered mid-way through level nine and this, as well as the upcoming tenth level remain for players to join the action. Giovanni Sances lost a big portion of his stack when he paid off a flopped nut flush to drop back into the middle of the pack.
For Aiguo Xu it came even worse, as he was spotted watching the cash game on the live stream table. New in the field with a bigger stack is Ismail Kalkan.
