MPS Vienna 2015 champion Andelo Bozic needed a miracle (or re-entry if he can still use one) in order to make Day 2 here in Barcelona after one of his usual hands with lots of table talk didn’t result in the fold of his opponent. The board was already complete, reading and there were 52,000 chips in the pot.

Counts from the same table:
Michael Schramm 165,000
Jonathan Rozema 165,000
