Daniela Zapiello Doubles Through Nicolas Cardyn

Nicolas Cardyn moved all in from the small blind and Daniela Zapiello called all in for 635,000 from the big blind.

Cardyn: {Q-Spades}{6-Spades}
Zapiello: {A-Spades}{8-Clubs}

The flop was a sweat for Zapiello as it fell {9-Spades}{4-Spades}{3-Hearts} to give Cardyn a flush draw. The {2-Hearts} turn added a straight draw for Cardyn, but the river was the {J-Clubs} and Zapiello doubled through to 1,345,000. Cardyn is down to 495,000.

Cardyn All In and Ahead

Andres Korn opened the pot to 160,000 before Nicolas Cardyn moved all in for 525,000 total. When the decision came back to Korn, he didn't waste much time making the call with the covering stack, putting Cardyn at risk of elimination.

Showdown
Korn: {5-Spades} {6-Spades}
Cardyn: {A-Spades} {Q-Clubs}

Things would run out just fine for Cardyn: {A-Diamonds} {10-Diamonds} {2-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds} {5-Hearts}. A pair of aces is good on that board, and Cardyn has doubled his way up over the million-chip mark, drawing virtually even with Korn.

Connect Four

Norbert Ludger limped into the pot under the gun, and Nacho Barbero, Daniela Zapiello, and Marco Caicedo all came along for the first four-way pot of the day.

The flop came out {A-Diamonds} {10-Diamonds} {A-Spades}, and the blinds checked. Ludger fired out 200,000 chips, and everyone's cards quickly hit the muck in turn. As the chips were pushed to him, Ludger flashed the {A-Hearts}.

Level: 27

Blinds: 30,000/60,000

Ante: 5,000

All-In Blinds

The table folded to the small blind, and Marco Caicedo moved all in for 475,000. Next door, Norbert Ludger asked for the count, tanked for a minute or two, and made the call to put Caicedo at risk.

Showdown
Caicedo: {A-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds}
Ludger: {A-Clubs} {Q-Clubs}

The board of {8-Diamonds} {K-Diamonds} {3-Hearts} {6-Hearts} {7-Diamonds} was red enough for Caicedo's tastes, but not suited enough to double him up. He'll have to settle for half the pot as he and Ludger chop up the antes before moving on to the next hand.

Bernardo Dias Eliminated in 7th Place ($31,270)

Bernardo Dias - 7th Place
Bernardo Dias - 7th Place
The all in spree is over. Bernardo Dias went all in for 700,000 on the button and was looked up by Andres Korn in the small blind.

Dias: {A-Hearts}{6-Spades}
Korn: {7-Diamonds}{7-Spades}

The {J-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{4-Clubs} flop provided a little help for Dias, but the {K-Hearts} turn and {9-Clubs} river clinched the hand for Korn, now with around 1,700,000 in chips.

Bernardo Dias takes $31,270 for his seventh-place finish.
