Milad Oghabian played Day 2 of the COLOSSUS earlier today and finished in 176th place, worth €1,425. The #1 on the Dutch 2018 GPI ranking jumped into the next event straight after and bumped his stack up to 160,000 already.

Holding {K-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}, Oghabian backdoored into the nut flush on a {2-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{A-Spades}{4-Clubs}{A-Clubs} board and bet 23,000. He received a call from Christian Bertu, who mucked upon seeing the flush.

Bendinelli Eliminates Covyn

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Danny Covyn
Danny Covyn

Danny Covyn raised to 2,100 in middle position and Chin Lei Wim called on the button. Giuliano Bendinelli three-bet shoved 24,800 from the big blind, Covyn called all in for slightly less and Wim snap-folded.

Danny Covyn: {A-Clubs}{J-Clubs}
Giuliano Bendinelli: {K-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}

It was an exciting rundown for the casual onlooker with {J-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{10-Spades}{K-Diamonds}{A-Diamonds}, and ultimately it would be Bendinelli who would snag it to end Covyn's attempt.
