It’s time for a general update for both tournaments.
Regarding Day 1a of the €1,100 Main Event, 13 players are currently in, and they will continue playing for roughly one hour. Recently, action folded to Jon Alba, who limped from the Small Blind. Seated in the Big Blind, Dalius Balčiūnas opted to check. The two players were treated with a 7♦2♦2♠ flop. Alba continued for 1,200, and Balčiūnas went for the call. Both players then checked the 5♥ turn. Alba checked again on the 5♦ river, and Balčiūnas wasted little time before throwing in two blue 1,000 chips. Alba took an extra peek at his hole cards before he raised to 12,000. Balčiūnas was visibly agonized before he folded.
Jon Alba: 64,000
Dalius Balčiūnas: 51,000
In the €555 NLH Championship, there are only two players left after Eimantas Adomavičius went out in third place for €9,150. Xavier Lyu – who, a couple of hours ago, was all in for his tournament life and won a crucial flip – has the chip lead with 3,250,000 in his stack. On the other side of the table sits Jānis Meņģelis with 2,300,000, who’s trying to secure yet another trophy for Latvia.
The two players are currently battling it out on Level 29, which features Blinds 40,000/80,000 and an 80,000 Ante.
