A Tale of Two Brits
The tale's not quite a tragedy but both Billy Chattaway and Ryan Sptittles - who share a table- both lost pots with premium hands to slip a little.
Chattaway raised to 3,600 from under the gun and called after he was three-bet to 8,600 by Puglia Giampaolo in mid position. The flop fell 
and Chattaway check-raised his opponent's 7,500 c-bet up to 22,500. Giampaolo called and both players went on to check the 
turn and river through. Chattaway opened 
but lost out to Giampaolo's 
.
The very next hand Sptittles three-bet to 8,500 from the cutoff after Georgios Karakousis had opened to 3,200 from under the gun. Karakousis checked and then led for 10,000 on the turn after the flop was checked through. Spittles called and the final board read 
. Karakousis came out firing for 30,000 and Spittles said, "Hmmn" before folding what he told PokerNews was queens.
