Niveau 21 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

Marco Regonaschi raised to 30,000 from middle position and received one caller in Jiri Kocab in the cutoff. Regonaschi then fired another 30,000 on the 4♥6♣10♠ flop. Kocab made the call, and he called Regonaschi's 55,000 bet on the J♣ turn as well.

The K♦ river completed the board and Regonaschi slowed down with a check. Kocab then put in a bet of 130,000.

Regonaschi spent two time bank extensions before slamming in a call, after which Kocab tabled A♦Q♦ for runner-runner Broadway. Regonaschi's cards hit the muck as he was left with 17 big blinds on Day 4.
