News in Brief
- Pierre Neuville has been drawn to the left of Fabrizio Baldassari, who came second to James Bord at the last WSOPE to be held in London. The Italian just got the better of the Team PokerStars too, albeit in a small pot. The action was four way to a flop and Baldassari bet 450 when the action was checked to him on the button. Neuville was the only check-caller from the small blind. The turn was the and the Belgian gave up as he check-folded to a 850 bet.
- James Mitchell is the house but down on chips. He had a stab on the flop in a three-way pot and was only called by the big blind. Both players checked the turn before Mitchell snap folded to an 1,150 bet on the river.
- Mitchell's good friend James Dempsey is here too and we think he might've been skiing in the week break that was between EPT Madrid and here. His face is supporting a very orange glow (pictures to come). He's not the only player to have hit the slopes recently. There are a number of "Panda" faces in the crowd crowd today.
