Barkay Busts Robbiano; Balzano Falls to Camarda
Ali Polat was missing from table 16 as Salvatore Camarda occupied his seat and another two players would bust in consecutive hands soon after Camarda had been moved there.
Pietro Robbiano opened and picked up a caller in Benjamin Barkay on the button. Robbiano bet the flop for 3,000 and Barkay raised to 9,000, which Robbiano called. On the turn, Robbiano check-shoved for more than 45,000 and Barkay reluctantly called after nearly two minutes.
Pietro Robbiano:
Benjamin Barkay:
The river further improved Barkay to a full house and he won the big pot.
"Snap call?!" Silviu Baltateanu said in table chat while the chips were pushed to the Belgian, who finished 16th in this very event one year ago.
In the next hand, Ivan Balzano pushed for the last 7,000 from under the gun and Salvatore Camarda called in the big blind.
Ivan Balzano:
Salvatore Camarda:
The board came and that was it for Balzano.
