First man down on Day 3

Picture care of Poker10.com
Bernat Saperas is the first man to fall on Day 3 after he finally succumbed in the battle with Santiago Soriano, running his pocket deuces into the bigger stack's Jacks.

Saperas had been damaged in their previous hand, so it was little surprise to see him make his move - and his long-running rival was only too happy to take him on pre-flop.

The flop brought a scare for Soriano, however, with A♠7♠Q♠ giving the shorty's 2♠2♥ a glimmer of hope, but the 4♣ and 8♥ ensured Bernat's fate was sealed.

Saperas wins €1,800 for his trouble.

On the other table, Marcos Paneque won a medium sized pot as his bluff came good. Having 3-bet pre-flop with 86, he led out for over 40,000 on the 5♦J♦4♥ flop and was again called by Pascual Gil.

The remaining hand was checked down and it was the 8& spades; on the turn that came to Paneque's rescue, beating his opponent's 33 and shipping the chips his way.
