75 Minutes of Couscous
![[user228332]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
Niveau 9
: 800/1,600, 200 ante
The remaining players have been cordially invited to the Winamax couscous dinner, and thus the poker is brought to a halt after the first nine levels of play. Have no fear, though, the action will be back underway in 75 minutes.
Margets Takes Another Hit
Niveau 9
: 800/1,600, 200 ante
It hasn't been Leo Margets tournament so far, and the Spanish pro is in for her very last bullet in the 2017 Winamax SISMIX Main Event. It still seems like the boards aren't really cooperating with her, and just now she lost another sizable pot when a flopped flush draw didn't get there for the Spaniard.
Margets took a stab at it anyways with her 
on the 
board, but Florent Vaz Martin had made top pair on the turn with 
, and quickly called the 15,000. Margets just shook her head and flicked her cards into the muck.

Dinner Is Early
Niveau 9
: 800/1,600, 200 ante
The players at Day 1a and 1b got to go on a 75-minute dinner break after 10 levels of play, but because of the big Winamax couscous dinner tonight, the players will be excused a little earlier.
Dinner will be served in the Es Saadi Gardens when the current level is completed, and the players are scheduled to return 8.15 pm local time for four more levels of play.
260 players remain in the tournament, while today's number of entries is up to a staggering 467.
Calamusa Misses Flush Draw But Gets there Anyway
Niveau 9
: 800/1,600, 200 ante
Pierre Calamusa also decided to drop by the Main Event today, and that seems like a solid decision on his part, as he has already quadrupled his starting stack of 50,000.
In a four-way pot, Calamusa bet 9,000 on a 
and got calls from both Mohamed Mehalleg and Saber Harrazi. The three of them checked the 
turn through before Calamusa fired 22,000 on the 
river. Mehalleg decided to spare his last 27,000, but Harrazi quickly made the call right behind him.
Calamusa turned over 
for the missed flush draw turned trips, and that was enough to secure the pot.

Kitai Gets Bluffed Again
Niveau 8
: 600/1,200, 200 ante
Davidi Kitai is not an easy man to bluff, but somehow it has happened on two different occasions within the last few hours of play. The latest opponent to receive the I bluffed Kitai t-shirt* is Farid Berkani, but it took three bullets and quite a bit of talking for him to get it through.
Berkani made it 3,200 to go from the button, Kitai reraised to 8,500 out of the small blind, and Berkani made the call. Kitai checked the 
flop, and Berkani instantly threw out two blue chips worth 5,000 each. Kitai called.
The 
on the turn prompted another check from Kitai, and an even quicker bet from Berkani - this time 20,000. Kitai gave it some thought this time before committing the chips.
Kitai checked a third time on the 
river and Bertani, just as quickly as the previous streets, cut out 40,000 and put them over the betting line. Kitai smirked at his opponent before going deep into the tank, only to surface when Berkani started chatting with him.
As your reporter today is not much of a French speaker, this is purely an assumption but the way they nearly sang every sentence, they must have talked about love, life and everything in between.
After more than five minutes of conversation, Kitai finally mucked his cards, and Berkani flashed his hand - 
- to the table before they hit the muck as well.

Overbet = Nuts?
Niveau 7
: 500/1,000, 100 ante
"You guys always have the nuts when you overbet," Guillaume Diaz proclaimed after looking into the 
of his opponent. The board had run out 
, and the Winamax Pro had instantly called after his opponent had fired somewhere around 8,000 - almost twice the pot - on the river.
"I will fold two pair, no doubt, but I can't fold the eight," he continued as he cut out chips for the call and handed them over.
Diaz is still doing just fine, though, as he still has an average stack and then some in front of him.
