Stieven Razab-Sekh Eliminated in 3rd Place (€37,700)

_DSC7615Verboven continues once more with a min-raise to 80,000 from the button. Ruggiero Scommenga decides he won’t the fold the big blind this time and makes the call to see a :::Ts:::6h:::3h flop. The Italian checked and Verboven fired out a bet of 85,000, a recheck of the cards from Scommegna and he folds once more.

Scommegna limps again the small blind and once more Verboven makes it 105,000 in the big blind and like a broken record the Italian doesn’t fold, preferring to make the call. The flop came down :::Qd:::Td:::8d and both players checked before Verboven took the pot down with a 75,000 bet on the :::Qh turn.

Verboven limped on the button and Stieven Razab-Sekh decided he was going to PLAY A POT! Scommegna checked his option and they saw a :::4h:::8h:::9s flop. Razab-Sekh checked and Scommegna bet 75,000, Verboven folded but Razab-Sekh moved all in for about 574,000. Scommenga tanked for about a minute before calling and everyone was surprised how long he had taken.

Scommegna: :::As:::9d
Razab-Sekh: :::Kd:::9h

The :::Ts came on the turn and with the :::6c on the river Scommegna is now the chip leader going into the heads up battle.
