Balazs Somodi
Balazs Somodi

With Balazs Somodi, another of the players that registered before the start of Day 2 has been sent to the rail. There, he was soon joined by Aku Joentausta.

The Finn got his short stack in preflop with {A-Spades}{J-Hearts} and Valerie Ross looked him up with {7-Diamonds}{7-Spades}. The board came {9-Spades}{6-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{9-Diamonds} and Joentausta was eliminated.

Somodi was all in and at risk with the {8-Hearts}{8-Spades} and start-of-the-day chip leader Sergi Escote snap-called with {K-Spades}{K-Diamonds}. The board of {J-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{7-Spades}{6-Spades} brought no surprise and the next casualty for the day.
