The Cool Kids Arrive

The latecomers are slowly filtering in, and the number on the board right now is 223. Among those who have recently taken their seats is Unibet Open Ambassador Paul Valkenburg, currently sharing a table with Arkadiusz Olszowy. Also now arrived is Dan Murariu, claiming his seat next to a shattered-looking and sunglasses-free Filip Verboven.

Murariu hasn’t had an amazing start. Michael Wasserman opened to 150 and both the gentleman in the cutoff and Murariu on the button called to see a :::Kc :::Qc :::Td flop. Wasserman continuation bet 250 and Murariu called (the cutoff folded) and they saw a :::6h turn. But Wasserman bet another 625 and Murariu finally gave it up. He’s just a shade below starting stack now. Early days.
