Matt Warburton

Level 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Following an open raise, Erick Marcos reraised to 6,300 and then Andrea Agnoletto moved all in for around 40,000. Marcos made the call and players flipped their cards. Players had similar stacks, but it was Agnoletto who was at risk.

Andrea Agnoletto: K♥Q♠
Erick Alex Goni Marcos: A♥8♠

"Ace eight?", said Agnoletto with a shrug.

The board ran out 9♥10♥10♠8♥K♦. Agnoletto paired his king on the river. Marcos let out a cry of distress.

"Ace eight, it was a fold," said Agnoletto as he scooped the pot, leaving Marcos with just 1,000 behind. Marcos has since been eliminated from the tournament.

Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Miguel Gurrea raised to 2,000 from middle position and found one caller in Rafael Robles in the big blind.

Robles check-called a 2,300 bet from Gurrea on the 8♠7♣K♠ flop and then checked again to Gurrea on the 10♦ turn. Gurrea bet 8,300 and Robles shoved for 26,500 total, sending Gurrea deep into the tank. A tablemate eventually called the clock and the tournament director nearly counted down to zero before Gurrea stuck in a call to put Robles at risk.

Rafael Robles: 7♠5♠
Miguel Gurrea: K♥J♠

Gurrea was ahead with his pair of kings, but would need to fade a bevy of outs to eliminate Robles.

The 2♥ river bricked out for Robles and his remaining chips were added to Gurrea's stack.

The flop came 6♣9♦2♦. Bystroem continued for 5,000 and Dominguez called.

The turn was the J♣ and Bystroem moved all in for 21,200. Dominguez made the call and players flipped their cards.

Dominguez showed 7♦7♠ for a pocket pair of sevens and Bystroem showed K♦K♥ for pocket kings.

The 8♦ river changed nothing and so Bystroem held with his kings, leaving Dominguez with just a couple of chips left behind. Dominguez has since been eliminated from the tournament.

Maltez showed 10♠6♠ for a bluff with backdoor outs. Sella showed A♣K♣ for two pair with his kings and the nines on board.

Level 2 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Salazar Marquetti opened to 500 from middle position and was three-bet to 1,500 by Cedric Chevalme in the small blind. It was folded back to Marquetti, who cut out a four-bet to 4,500 and placed it into the middle. Chevalme responded by shoving for just under a starting stack and Jonas called to put him at risk.

Cedric Chevalme: A♥K♥
Salazar Marquetti: A♠A♦

It was a preflop cooler and the J♦2♦8♥9♣8♠ runout kept Marquetti best with his pockets aces to eliminate Chevalme.
