Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

The title sounds like the build up to a joke but alas it is not. It is actually introducing you to three hands that have just taken place here at the Hilton.

Hand 1: Former November Niner, Antoine Saout opened on the button with a raise to 650 and only the small blind came along for the ride. A flop of {9-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{6-Hearts} was met with a bet of 850 from the small blind, but he soon gave up his hand when Saout made it 2,600 to play.

Hand 2: The Italian-sounding German, Giuseppe Pantaleo min-raised from early position to 400, a bet that folded everyone out except the small blind, who bet two red chips and a single black one, a raise to 2,100. Once the big blind got out of the way the action was back on Pantaleo and the EPT Barcelona final table member put in a further raise, this time to a more substantial 5,000, enough to fold out his singular opponent.

Hand 3: EPT Barcelona runner-up Jesus Cortes Lizano got things under way with a raise in early position to 525 but probably did not bank on the hijack, cutoff and big blind calling! The {k-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} flop saw the big blind check, Lizano follw suit but the hijack bet 1,450, which prompted a snigger from the rest of the table, suggesting he's been stealing plenty lately. We'll keep our eye on him.
