Barbero Makes an Ill-Timed Misclick

Nível 31 : Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Jose Nacho Barbero

Aliaksandr Shylko opened to 500,000 from under the gun with {j-Spades}{j-Diamonds} and Nacho Barbero was busy talking to the rail and didn't notice the raise. Barbero raised to 5,125,000 in the small blind with {9-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}, thinking he was just putting Max Menzel to the test in the big blind.

Menzel folded and Shylko jammed all in for around 12,000,000 which got a quick fold from the dumbfounded Barbero as the chip lead exchanged hands.

Nível 31 : Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

Nacho Barbero opened 525,000 from early position with {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs} and Philipe Pizzari defended in the big blind with {a-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}.

Pizzari checked on the {6-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{10-Hearts} flop and Barbero continued for 650,000. Pizzari called. Pizzari checked again on the {3-Diamonds} turn and Barbero sized up to 1,525,000. Pizzari again called.

The {k-Hearts} river completed the board and Pizzari checked. Barbero bet 2,000,000 and Pizzari laid it down.

Thumm Doubles on the First Hand

Nível 31 : Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Double Up Niclas Thumm
Double Up Niclas Thumm

Niclas Thumm woke up with a premium in the cutoff on the very first hand and raised to 1,225,000. Max Menzel shoved all in from the big blind and Thumm quickly called off his stack of 1,800,000.

Niclas Thumm: {a-Spades}{k-Clubs}
Max Menzel: {a-Clubs}{3-Hearts}

Thumm was in a dominating position and the flop of {q-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{2-Diamonds} left it that way. The {k-Diamonds} on the turn locked up the pot for Thumm as the {4-Clubs} completed the board.

Player Profile Seat 6: Pedro Marques

Pedro Marques
Pedro Marques

Pedro Marques is aiming for a double celebration at the PSPC final table. Not only does he have the chance to snag a second major title of this tournament series for Portugal (after Michel Dattani won the PCA Main Event), he also locked up his place at the final on his 30th birthday.

It’s a pretty good way to ease the pain of leaving his 20s behind. The man from Corroios has documented tournament winnings of $2.9 million so far, and outright victory would push him to the top of the Portugal money list.

He has become a very well-known face on the EPT, where he reached the final table of EPT Barcelona in 2018 for what was, before today, his biggest tournament score.

Final Table Player Profile Seat 5: Aliaksandr Shylko

Aliaksandr Shylko
Aliaksandr Shylko

Aliaksandr Shylko, 26, has been a professional poker player for six years. After starting out playing cash games, he turned to hold’em tournaments and now specializes exclusively in them, both live and online.

From Minsk in Belarus, Shylko has racked up a string of cashes on the international circuit since 2016, including winning the €2,200 Eureka High Roller in Rozvadov last year for €75,332. Shylko described his four-day journey to the final table as “smooth for the most part,” but the last day proved much harder.

“I had some very tough spots against Sam Grafton and another English player – I made four hero folds which weren’t easy.” Without them, he admits he may not still have a shot at the PSPC 2023 title.

One hand from Day 4 that stood out as “the biggest hand” for him involved his holding ace-king off vs. ace-king suited and ace-queen suited. A queen in the window looked like it would spell the end of his tournament, but when the king of diamonds appeared, he thought, of the final table – and possibly the title – “I might just get there.”

Of the PCA, which Shylko’s attending for the first time, he says, “It’s great – but crazy pricey. I had a $7 chocolate bar. In Belarus you can get a decent dinner for that!”

Final Table Profile Seat 4: Max Menzel

Max Menzel
Max Menzel

You can try Googling him all you want, but you won’t find much information about Germany’s Max Menzel online – apart from a recent interview with PokerStars Blog.

That’s because the 37-year-old is predominantly a live cash game player. Originally from Berlin, Menzel was essentially a poker pro throughout his college years, funding his studies through cards. But when he and his wife decided to start a family, he decided to get a corporate career instead and now works in management for a German logistics company.

Menzel and his family moved to China ten years ago for work and while there he spent a lot of time grinding the games in Macau. But since moving to Singapore a year ago, poker has taken a backseat so he can spend more time with his wife and two young children.

Still, he occasionally has to travel for work and likes to play a bit of poker while he’s away, and that’s what led to him being here in the Bahamas. Menzel binked his Platinum Pass on one such excursion, winning the Road to PSPC in Manila.

“Without wanting to sound arrogant, I think I’m probably one of the best players who are unknown on the circuit,” he told us on the first break of the Day 4, before immediately going on a surge up the chip counts. And now he’s on the biggest final table of the year, so perhaps he’s right.

Final Table Player Profile Seat 3: Nacho Barbero

Nacho Barbero
Nacho Barbero

One of the undisputed superstars of Latin American poker, and a three-time champion on the LAPT, Jose Ignacio “Nacho” Barbero will return to the top of the Argentinian money list with a fifth-place finish or better in the PSPC.

Barbero spent many years on the roster of Team PokerStars Pro, which included a sensational run in 2010 when he won back-to-back LAPT tournaments in Uruguay and Peru, sandwiching victory on the French Poker Series. Later that year, he also won an EPT High Roller, for his biggest career score.

Now 40, Barbero is a pro of many years standing and has lost none of his appetite for the game. He won his first World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelet last summer in Las Vegas, and says he actually spends most of the year there these days, playing mainly cash games. He also says he lost a huge portion of his net worth in some of the recent cryptocurrency scandals, but has returned to poker with a vengeance and is rapidly working on getting everything back.
