Clayton Mozdzen eliminated in 7th
Clayton Mozdzen eliminated in 7th

Sergio Casteluccio raised to 240,000 in early position holding {A-Spades}{Q-Spades}, Clayton Mozdzen moved all-in holding {A-Hearts} {10-Diamonds} for 730,000 in the small blind, Lucille Cailly called in the big blind holding {9-Hearts} {9-Diamonds} and Castelluccio also called.

Clayton Mozdzen used his one time and the dealer gave us the flop.

Flop: {J-Clubs} {7-Spades} {6-Diamonds}

Cailly bet into a dry side pot and Castelluccio folded, leaving us heads-up to the turn. Both players got to their feet, Cailly on her own and Mozdzen with his friends by the rail.

Turn: {3-Diamonds}

A smile broke out on the face of Cailly and she realised that she was one card awya from the chip lead.

River: {5-Clubs}

There is a cheer from the French rail, Mozdzen removed his white sunglasses and walked around the room shaking everybody's hand and Cailly is now our chip leader.

Mohsin Charania Stack Sensibly

Mohsin Charania is not learning! He has once again stacked his chips into ridiculous towers. He took 250,000 of them off the top and raised with pocket sevens on the button and he won the blinds and antes. Let's hope they fall once more! Twenties Charania! Twenties!

What Planet Are You On?

Level 31 : 60,000/120,000, 10,000 ante

Bernard Guigon limped on the button holding {K-Clubs} {J-Clubs} and Sergio Castelluccio checked in the big blind holding {10-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds}. The flop was {7-Diamonds} {7-Clubs} {2-Hearts} and Guigon bet 150,000 to win the pot once checked to.

"I assume this guy limped on the button because he was going to move all-in over a shove," said Coren in the booth.

"What planet are you on?" Said James Hartigan.

Castelluccio Steps Up a Gear and Charania's Stack Crumbles (literally)

Level 31 : 60,000/120,000, 10,000 ante

Rodrigo Caprioli moved all-in from under the gun and {A-} {Q-} and everyone folded.

-

Sergio Castelluccio widens his range with a raise holding {9-Hearts} {7-Spades} and he took down the blinds and antes.

-

Sergio Castelluccio raised to 240,000 in the hijack seat holding {10-Hearts} {8-Hearts} and once again took down the blinds and antes. Victoria Coren has just nearly fainted when Bernard Guigon folded {A-} {3-} in the blinds and the James Hartigan had to give her a quick run through of the tightness of the first level.

-

Sergio Castelluccio raised to 240,000 holding {J-Clubs} {9-Clubs} under the gun, Rodrigo Caprioli folded {A-} {10-} on the button but the news of the hand was Mohsin Charania's towers of chips crumbling to the felt. Serves you right Mr Charania - stack them in twenties!

Raincoats & Thinner and Blonder Blondes

Level 31 : 60,000/120,000, 10,000 ante

Rodrigo Caprioli moved all-in holding {10-} {9-} in the hijack seat and every player folded.

-

Team PokerStars Pro Victoria Coren has just joined the commentary booth and said Lucille Cailly is very much like her - except "She is thinner and blonder then me."

-

Mohsin Charania moved all-in from the small blind holding {A-} {J-} and Clayton Mozdzen folded in the big blind.

-

Since we started play (35 hands) the statistics show that Bernard Guigon has not wona single hand since this final table started.

-

Coren wants the leak fixed above Mohsin Charania's head because she thinks it is unfair that he has to play wearing a raincoat.

Sergio Castelluccio raised to 200,000 holding {K-Clubs} {K-Diamonds} in early position, Daniel Gomez moved all-in for 1,255,000 holding {A-Spades} {Q-Hearts} in the hijack seat and, incredibly, Rodrigo Caprioli looked down to see {J-Clubs} {J-Diamonds} in the small blind and just called. Back to Castelluccio and he also called, leaving himself 360,000 behind, and we have gone from shallow promises to a three-way blockbuster of a hand to finish off the first level of play.

Flop: {Q-Diamonds} {4-Spades} {4-Clubs}

Caprioli put Castelluccio all-in and he made the call.

Turn: {10-Diamonds}

Nothing changed

River: {K-Hearts}

Castelluccio tripled up and became our chip leader while Daniel Gomez became the first player eliminated at the EPT Grand Final - Final Table.
