Give a Finn a short stack, and what is he going to do? Put it this way, he's not going to nit up and hope to ladder up. PokerStars Blog watches Jorma Nuutinen try to haul his way back into things, while Victoria Coren-Mitchell also opens her range. Check it out here.
Well, that's a little bit too tough a title, but it just sounds so good.
He has been raising it up a lot, but he hasn't really gotten away with it. Time and time again people shove, three-bet or take the pot away from him in any other way. Just now Andrija Martic three-bet, and five-bet shoved when the Spanish player four-bet. Mestre had to fold once again.
Just now he was involved in a rather big pot with Goeller. The Italian player made trips aces and bet out over half pot on a 
board. Mestre called and both players checked the 
on the river. Goeller showed 
and took it down.

Fabrice Soulier came to Sanremo for one reason – and one reason only: to enter (and win) the €900 Limit 2-7 Triple Draw event. Soulier and his girlfriend Claire are about to have their first child, so the French pro, who won the €10k High Roller at our last stop in Vienna, doesn’t have time to waste on anything longer than a one-evening tourney. “I’m just here for the Triple Draw”, he said last night, before winning the event for €5,680. He beat a 13 people strong field.

Emmanuel Pariset open shoved for 515,000 from the button. The small blind folded, Lukas Berglund made the snap call from the big blind.

Emmanuel Pariset: 
The flop gave Pariset a gut shot: . After the 
hit the turn, Pariset had just the queens and tens working for him. He would find one: 
. Berglund is now severely short stacked.

Lukas Berglund first shoved small to big, and Andrija Martic folded. Not much later he shoved all in again, this time for 240,000 from the cutoff. Small blind Vicky Coren-Mitchell reshoved for 510,000, the big blind folded.
Lukas Berglund:
Vicky Coren-Mitchell:
The flop was a good one for Berglund with 
. The on the turn however wasn't pretty to see for the former chip leader. The 
on the river was a blank and that was it for Berglund.
I just knocked a player out, so we're down to 10 and I'm up to 950k in chips (average 1.6m). Eight players will make the final.Follow @VictoriaCoren
