Nivel 25 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Giuseppe Tarsia pushed all in with about 100,000 from middle position, and Fahad El Mechraa, holding around 600,000, called. Nils Veipans, sitting on the button, then shoved all in himself, prompting an immediate call from El Mechraa. It was time for a showdown.

Giuseppe Tarsia: A♣J♣ All in
Fahad El Mechraa: Q♥J♥ All in
Nils Veipans: A♦A♥

Tarsia and El Mechraa had many ways to improve, but the board of 8♦3♦8♠6♦9♥ failed to help both of them. Veipans not only eliminated two players but also appeared to claim the chip lead at this stage of the tournament.

Arriving on the turn of 2♥4♥J♥7♦ in a blind-on-blind battle between Alessandro Orsi and Fabrizio Ortolomo, Orsi bet 125,000 into the pot of 200,000 and received a call from Ortolomo.

The river fell the K♣ and saw Orsi check to Ortolomo. Ortolomo then pushed all in for an overbet of 660,000 chips.

Orsi spent some time in the tank before eventually flicking in a singular chip to signify a call.

Ortolomo showed K♥8♣ for top pair, beating the 8♥7♠ of Orsi, who had called with third pair.

Ortolomo was awarded the massive pot and ended up with two and a half time the average stack.
