jnoy

Nível 5 : 400/800, 800 ante

Jesus Castro was all in a short time ago with Q♣J♦ against J♥10♥ on the turn of a board showing 2♠4♦8♣J♦. Castro was in great shape to double before the 10♦ river saw his opponent make two pair.

After reentering the tournament, Castro was back at a new table facing an open to 1,700 from Lukasz Babuchowski in early position. Castro three-bet on the button to 4,000 and found calls from the big blind and Babuchowski.

Action checked to Castro, who continued for 6,000. The big blind folded while Babuchowski called to the 2♠ turn. Castro followed another check from Babuchowski by betting 15,000.

Babuchowski called to the 4♣ river, where both players checked. Babuchowski showed A♦Q♥ while Castro revealed A♦Q♦ to chop the pot with top pair.

Simpson on Fifth Bullet

Nível 4 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

888poker Ambassador Ian Simpson is playing the €888 Main Event for the third straight day, currently looking build a stack on his fifth bullet of the tournament.

"So far I'm on 40,000 on bullet number five from a 50,000 starting stack. I was on 25,000, so I feel rich!" Simpson told PokerNews during the break. "I did two bullets in the High Roller, all coming to tragic, tragic ends."

"This bullet feels like it's going better than all the other ones which is really, really sad now that I say it out loud, but we battle." Simpson is looking to find a bag tonight and earn a spot in Day 2 tomorrow.
