Klat Completes his Flush Draw to Oust Messina

Level 8: 600/1,200 (1,200)
Entries: 211/313

The blinds have moved onto Level 8. This means it is the final level of late registration for the Day 1c field of the MPF Grand Event.

One player that will need to re-enter if they wish to bag chips to Day 2 via Day 1c is Renato Messina.

We caught up to a hand where Messina already had all his chips in the pot with 8 3 with the 8 6 3 on the board after the flop. Olivier Klat had him covered with K 4 for a flush draw.

Messina’s two pair was still good after the A appeared on the turn. However, the Q spiked the river to complete Klat’s flush draw and Messina was on the rail.

Olivier Klat – 120,000
Renato Messina – 0
