Mantor Busts to Sfez; Misses Pay Jump

zedmaster84

Niveau 20 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Eric Sfez opened from the cutoff and Didrik Mantor three-bet to 115,000 in the small blind. Back on Sfez he quickly four-bet to 450,000 and Mantor opted to call for the vast majority of his stack.

As the flop fell, Sfez vaulted out of his seat to check how many chips Mantor had behind. Both somehow checked and Mantor then bet the turn for 50,000 with 4,000 behind. The reason behind the move on the pay jump was rather obvious and Sfez pist-fump raised to 125,000 in a matter of a second.

As Mantor studied the tournament clock and called it off even though he still had several time bank extensions behind.

Didrik Mantor:
Eric Sfez:

Sfez all but celebrated and then had reason to when the blank river failed to keep Mantor in contention. He was eliminated in 40th place and missed out on the pay jump.

Grieco Runs Out of Time

zedmaster84

Niveau 20 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Yannick Cardot raised to 25,000 and Marcelo Simoes in the hijack called. Nicola Grieco on the button three-bet to 100,000 and received two calls. The flop was checked to Grieco and he bet 200,000 for Cardot to fold and Simoes to call.

After the turn both players checked and Simoes bet the river for 250,000.

Grieco went into the tank and surpassed the 30-second shot clock. With one time bank remaining, the next 30 seconds ticked down and the the dealer counted down the final ten seconds as Grieco sat there motionless.

When the time had run up, his hand was dead which the Italian had not realised yet. The dealer called over the floor and Grieco's cards were indeed dead as Simoes raked in the pot. As he tried to get some information from his opponent, Grieco was shown a fishing rod throw by Simoes.
