🇷🇴 Iulian Costel Strugaru strikes big on Day1H

entries 622/left 63


It was to be expected that this Saturday would be quite crowded and the 622 entries in the afternoon flight proved it.


Sixty-three went through after 19 levels of high-stakes play, against 446 single entries and 176 re-entries, bringing the total number of qualifiers to 169.


Strugaru's towers


Walking around the tables in the aftermath of the bubble burst, the feeling that the day's chip leader was hiding behind those stacks of chips of unspecified height grew stronger and stronger.


Unlike most players, who for the sake of practicality arrange their chips in stacks of 20, Romanian 🇷🇴 IULIAN COSTEL STRUGARU kept piling his ceramic discs on top of each other in an unorthodox way.

Iulian Costel Strugaru


It is no coincidence that his two stacks of greens - those of 25,000, ed. - at the time of the envelopes, turned out to be three nice missiles of 20, which alone would have been enough to guarantee him the leadership. In the end, he will bag 1,725,000, against the 1,480,000 of the German 🇩🇪 "OMAR", second in the count at the end of the day.


In third position we find the second-best Italian so far, "MARADONA ABAZ" (1,480,000), followed by 🇱🇹 "AC MILAN" (1,130,000) and 🇨🇿 VITEZSLAV PITR (1,113,000) to complete the top five.


Italian roping


Out of 63 qualifiers, there are 11 Italians who will go through to Day2 via flight H: 🇮🇹CHRISTIAN BERTU (634,000), 🇮🇹MARIO RIPEPI (580,000), 🇮🇹ADRIANO BIANCO (552,000), 🇮🇹VALENTINA GALEANDRO (413. 000), 🇮🇹 PAOLO SANTAGATI (405,000), 🇮🇹 BRANDO NASPETTI (388,000), 🇮🇹 LEONARDO SABATINO (288,000), 🇮🇹STEFANO PUNZI (279,000), 🇮🇹 NICOLA D'ARIENZO (233,000), and 🇮🇹ENRICO BOVE (196,000).


Alcuni tra i protagonisti al Day1 H


After Germany, Italy is the most represented nation in this penultimate round: a great success compared to previous Day1s when Italians were counted on the tips of fingers.


Fear makes you lose


What happens in the bubble phase is rather curious: there are many players left with a handful of Big Blinds and no one seems to want to give way to their opponents.


The fear of being eliminated right at the most beautiful moment, combined with the desire not to take risks plays a nasty trick on "SVARAS", who from SB, on the opening CO, goes directly all-in with A-Ko for 43 blinds.


The original raiser, who also covers him in the stack, has two big K's and would hardly have let go, not even under torture: no Aces, no straight or flush appear on the board and Theodor Bert finds himself making an unexpected double-up in the top phase of the tournament, while 'SVARAS' is betrayed by his own fear. The shorts say thank you and they all go for the prize.
