A Walk With Aces & Blonde Wigs

Rodrigo Caprioli raised to 200,000 holding the best pre flop hand in NLHE {A-Diamonds} {A-Clubs} and he received the wonderful walk. Caprioli showed the table his bad luck when he purposely flashed his cards.

-

Lucille Cailly raised to 200,000 in first position holding our most popular hand today - {K-Clubs} {Q-Diamonds} - and everyone folded allowing her to pick up the blinds and antes. The French rail contingent are all wearing blonde wigs!

-

Mohsin Charania raised to 225,000 holding {9-Hearts} 8h] in the cutoff and Charania wins the pot.

Castelluccio Gets Another One Through

Clayton Mozdzen raised to 200,000 in mid-position, off a 13BB stack holding {J-Clubs} {10-Diamonds}, and he took down the blinds and antes.

-

Daniel Gomez raised to 200,000 in first position holding {K-Diamonds} {Q-Diamonds} and Sergo Castelluccio looked down to see {A-Hearts} {J-Hearts} in the small blind. The music man stared at Gomez and Charania (big blind) before moving all-in. Charania folded and Gomez asked for a count. The answer was 1,285,000 and Gomez dug his knuckle into the left side of his temple and started to think. He riffled his chips intently but once again mucked his hand.

Cailly Takes a Pot From Gomez

Daniel Gomez looked down to see a tiny pair ({2-Clubs} {2-Diamonds}) and he made it 200,000 from centre field. The interest of Lucille Cailly perked up in the cutoff, and asking Michael Dietrich for a count in the big blind, she made the call holding {A-Spades} {J-Clubs}.

Flop: {Q-Spades} {10-Diamonds} {3-Spades}

Gomez checked, Cailly bet 210,000 and Gomez mucked his hand. The first haul for Cailly produces the first big cheer from the rail.

Split Pot Between Charania and Cailly

With a stack of around 10BB, Mike Dietrich folded pocket eights in mid-position! Onto Mohsin Charania and he raised to 225,000 a few seats to his left with {A-Hearts} {10-Hearts}, Lucille Cailly called on the button holding {A-Diamonds} {J-Hearts} and the two shared a flop of {Q-Hearts} {Q-Clubs} {8-Diamonds}. Charania makes a 185,000 c-bet and Cailly made the call.

The turn card was the {7-Clubs} and with 1,050,000 in the pot Charania lined up a second barrel and pulled the trigger. It was for 335,000 and Cailly's face pulled into a look of curiosity before she once again made the call.

The river was another seven {7-Spades} and both players checked and the spoils were shared.

Tight and Stringent

Michael Dietrich raised to 200,000 in early position and Rodrigo Caprioli defended his big blind. The action checked through to the river on a board of {K-Spades} {J-Hearts} {6-Spades} {10-Diamonds} {9-Clubs} and Caprioli won the hand with {K-Hearts} {8-Hearts}; Dietrich tabled {A-Clubs} {J-Diamonds}.

It seems the play is going to follow the same pattern as yesterday. Tight and stringent.

The First All-In Starring Sergio Castelluccio

The action folded around to Mohsin Charania on the button who raised to 225,000 holding {A-Hearts} {7-Clubs} and it was enough to win the blinds and antes.

-

Sergio Castelluccio moved all-in holding {A-Clubs} {8-Clubs} in the hijack seat and Clayton Mozdzen woke up with {K-Hearts} {Q-Spades} in the small blind. He asked for a count and the answer he recieved was 1,205,000. Mozdzen considered his tournament life and felt king-queen was not good enough before folding his hand.
