Level 10: 1,000/2,000 (2,000)
Entries: 135/260

A raising war took place once again between Eros Nastasi and Luca Delfino where both players had their stacks in the middle for a pot near 200,000 with Delfino at risk.

Luca Delfino: A♠A♣
Eros Nastasi: K♥K♠

It was looking like ‘cooler city’ for Nastasi as he it appeared likely that he would be on just a few big blinds after his second-best hand ran into the best hand.

The table, especially Nastasi, erupted after the K♦6♣K♠ spiked the flop to immediately improve Nastasi to four cowboys.

Delfino was drawing dead on the Q♥ turn with the Q♦ river making the hand official.

After wishing Deflino a good game, Nastasi was busy discussing the epic hand with friends from surrounding tables.

Level 10: 1,000/2,000 (2,000)
Entries: 139/260

Eros Nastasi opened the button for 4,000 before Luca Delfino three-bet to 15,000 from the small blind. Nastasi paused for less than a minute before he called.

Delfino continued for 9,000 on the K♥6♠7♣ flop. Nastasi called before both players checked on the 6♥ turn and again on the [invalid notations] river.

Delfino turned over the J♠J♦ and this was good enough on a scary board for jacks as Nastasi tossed his hand face down into the muck.

Eros Natasti – 90,000
Luca Delino – 85,000

Level 9: 1,000/1,500 (1,500)
Entries: 155/260

Stig Eketrapp opened for 3,500 from under the gun before Arnasalon Chengalanee three-bet to 9,700 from the hijack. Eketrapp paused for about 30 seconds before he called.

Eketrapp put his hoodie over his face as the 7♠K♥7♦ landed on the flop before he checked. Chengalanee fired out for 11,000. Eketrapp jammed for 26,500 and Chengalanee snap-called only to want to toss his cards a few tables away when he saw what he was up against. It was all fun and games as the pretend toss wound up with his cards being shown as well.

Stig Eketrapp: 7♠7♥
Arnasalon Chengalanee: K♦10♦

Chengalanee was drawing dead to Eketrapp’s flopped quads after the 10♠ landed on the turn with the 8♣ completing the board on the river.

Stig Eketrapp – 75,000
Arnasalon Chengalanee – 60,000

Level 8: 600/1,200 (1,200)
Entries: 161/260

Mattia Festia opened for 2,500 and was called by Jeoffrey Duytschaever before Guts Poker’s Jonathan Briscoe White three-bet to 10,500. Festiva jacked it up to 23,500. Dutschaever folded before White five-bet jammed for 60,800. Festia called and the cards were turned over.

Jonathan Briscoe White: 10♥10♦
Mattia Festia: A♣K♣

“I thought you might have had that,” White said. “I had to go for it.”

White’s tens were good for a double after Festia’s big slick didn’t connect with the 5♠2♣8♦J♣4♦ runout.

Jonathan Briscoe White – 130,000
Mattia Festia – 60,000

Level 8: 600/1,200 (1,200)
Entries: 165/252

The Day 1c field has grown to 252 entries. It won’t grow too much more but still will be a little bit as late registration closes after this blind level.

Best of luck to all of the players!
