Table Lopez Still Fighting

Minieri - Raising Machine
Minieri - Raising Machine
THE SPORTSMAN -- Francisco Lopez may have overtaken his neighbour Dario Minieri in chips, but the super-aggressive young Italian is still merrily raising almost every hand preflop. It backfired a minute ago when Dave "Devilfish" Ulliott limped in early position, along with Richard Collier, and when Minieri made it 1,600 to go, he faced Dave moving in for a further 7,600. It actually took longer for Collier to pass than Minieri, but there he was, raising the next hand, undaunted but with a much-reduced stack (13,600).

The rest of that table looks like:
Terry Cook -- 39,200
Humberto Brenes -- 34,000
Jonas Eriksen -- 17,250
Richard Collier -- 25,200
Cristiano Blanco -- 18,650
Devilfish -- 10,825

Passing through the floor, Dean Sanders asked me what the average stack was. In my experience, it's only people who are ahead of it who ever ask this question, to see by how much. Well, the average here at the Sportsman is now 28K, and Sanders is in comfortable shape with 48,600.
