Action Slows

Level 27 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante

With the average stack now a very shallow 25 big blinds, nobody is driving the action. Joao Bauer appears to be taking shots where he can and, so far, isn't encountering much resistance. Very few pots are getting past the first raise pre-flop or the first bet on the flop. It may be that escalating blinds will be the ultimate action driver at today's final table.

Nadal Doubles First Hand Back

Level 27 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante

On the first hand back from the break, Santiago Nadal moved all in from under the gun for 250,000. Action folded around to Alex Manzano on the button and he paused for a few moments before making the call. Everyone else folded.

Manzano: {A-Spades}{8-Hearts}
Nadal: {K-Clubs}{6-Hearts}

The board ran out {K-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{J-Spades} and Nadal's pair of kings netted him the double up.

Bauer Takes Bite out of Csome

Level 26 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
Joao Bauer
Joao Bauer

Joao Bauer has a very unenviable seat at today's final table. Seated to his left are the players with the two biggest stacks, Alex Manzano and Leandro Csome. Bauer decided to play very aggressively against Csome on the last hand before the break and it paid dividends. Sitting with the button, Bauer opened to 115,000. Csome three-bet the big blind to 330,000, a raise that Bauer responded to by moving all in. Csome asked for a count (about 1 million) then called with {a-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}. He went running down to his supporters in the gallery when Bauer opened {j-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}.

The flop was a ragged {3-Spades}{6-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}. All of the Brazilians in the crowd starting chanting for a jack and were rewarded with the {j-Diamonds} on the turn. Csome's much smaller group of supporters chanted for a queen but were drowned out by the cheers of the Brazilians on the river {k-Hearts}.

That's the first hit for Csome today. Bauer is now vying for the chip lead.

Csome Three-Bets and Shows

Level 26 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

From under the gun, Alex Manzano raised. Leandro Csome, the chip leader, three-bet from next seat and won the pot. Upon everyone folding, Csome's cheering section roared and he showed the {J-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} with a big smile.

It's quite common to see players showing cards at the table and providing their opponents with free information. Oftentimes, a player will fold and show his or her hand before the other player also shows. We've seen this a lot over the past few days and it's always a presence on the Latin American Poker Tour.

Bruno Politano Eliminated in 8th Place (R$45,440)

Level 26 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
Bruno Politano - 8th Place
Bruno Politano - 8th Place

Bruno Politano's up-and-down day ended decidedly down. He moved all in from the small blind after cutoff player Alex Manzano opened for 115,000. Henrique Bernardes thought it over briefly in the big blind before folding. Manzano called with {a-Spades}{k-Clubs} and was off to the races as Politano tabled {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}.

Manzano absolutely smashed the flop, {4-Spades}{q-Spades}{k-Spades}. Politano caught the faintest glimmer of hope with the {a-Clubs} turn, picking up a straight draw, but he was the first eliminated from the final table after the {5-Clubs} river.

Politano received R$45,440 in prize money.

Bernardes Doubles with Queens

Level 26 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
Henrique Bernardes
Henrique Bernardes

Action folded around to Henrique Bernardes in the hijack seat. He moved all in for 255,000. Action then moved to Marcio Motta on the button and he proceeded to tank for a minute or two before folding. Joao Bauer wound up making the call when the action got to him, holding the {10-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}. Bernardes had moved in with the {Q-Spades}{Q-Hearts}.

The flop came down {10-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} and gave Bauer a pair of tens. He was still behind the queens for Bernardes though as he was looking to double up.

The turn brought the {5-Spades} and the river the {8-Spades}. The queens held for Bernardes and he was able to double up.

Politano Returns the Favor

Level 26 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
Bruno Politano
Bruno Politano

Bruno Politano regained his chips from Santiago Nadal. Politano open-shoved from early position for 385,000. Nadal, two seats behind Politano, then over-shoved to isolate. The rest of the table folded, allowing Nadal the chance to finish off Politano.

Politano: {a-Clubs}{5-Hearts}
Nadal: {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}

It was looking grim for Politano by the turn, {3-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}. Then a rail bird shouted, "Ace on the river!" and bink! The river came {a-Hearts} to the delight of the very partisan Brazilian crowd.
