Interesting Confrontations Ahead

At the far end of the tournament area there is a table that could throw up some interesting confrontations between the players currently seated there.

In Seat 1 is David "sexygee" Gent who recently finished second in the special seventh anniversary edition of the PokerStars Sunday Million. That result banked Gent $836,321.

To Gent's direct left is Praz Bansi, a double World Series of Poker bracelet winner who is no afraid to put his chips into the middle of the felt.

Then to their left, albeit a couple of seats over, is a rank amateur by the name of Albert Sapiano. Mr Sapiano is a regular on the UK live poker circuit and has a number of impressive results to his name. He also has a reputation for never folding a hand once he is in a pot. He did, however, just fold a hand against Gent.

On a flop, Gent led for 2,000 and Sapiano called from late position. The turn put the into play and Gent fired a 5,000 bet at his opponent, which to our surprise saw a fold from Sapiano.

Sapiano's willingness to get to the river in most pots he is involved in and the fact Gent and Bansi will attempt to run the show should throw up some interesting confrontations.
