Cupcakes for Harkes; Chips for Rinkevicius
Level 6
: 400/800, 100 ante
Peter Harkes was just given cupcakes for his 30th birthday by Mateusz Moolhuizen with a "happy birthday song" right in front of the feature table and the Dutchman, a former Unibet Open champion, is off to a good start with two times the starting stack.
A few tables over, Julien Sitbon faced a raise to 1,800 and called on the button. [Removed:402] in the small blind three-bet to 7,300 and Sitbon was the only caller. On the 
flop, Rinkevicius continued for 8,200 and Sitbon called before the duo checked through the 
turn and 
river. Rinkevicius showed 
and that won the pot.
Sitbon more than made up for the loss soon after, though, and climbed back up to more than three times the starting stack while Tina Bandyle was eliminated.
