Another day belonged to Costa Rica’s Alberto Cartin when day 4 of the Latin Series of Poker Millions came to an end. The guitarist and online tournament specialist will lead the final 26 players with a stack of 1,655,000 when day 5 begins Friday, Mar. 14 at the Majestic Casino in Panama City, Panama.
Cartin finished day 1c with the chip lead and then did the same on day 2. Trailing Cartin is Colombian Andreas Farias with 1,189,000 and the United States’ Manne Ravi with 1,159,000. The three are the only players to end the day above the one million mark. Day 3 chipleader Alon Raz will return to a stack of 913,000.
Also coming back for day 5 will be American Carter Gill who, after beginning the day with one the largest stacks in play, was crippled by Team BetCRIS pro Engelberth Varela. Varela , who was short-stacked, was all-in for his tournament life against Gill early on. With the board reading 10
Q
2
. Varela moved all-in with 1010 and Gill called with AK. The board completed 57, Varela received a much needed doubled up and Gill lost a sizable portion of his stack.
With 30 players left in the day – and play ending at 27- Gill moved all-in for 173,000 from the cutoff with A
6. Leonardo Tarazona called form the button and showed J6. An A10837 board was spread and Gill reclaimed some of his lost chips. By the time the tournament clock ran out on the day, the 2013 Latin America Poker Tour Uruguay champion was back near the top of the leaderboard.
Other players who will return for day 5 include Jose “Nacho” Barbero, Bolivar Palacios, Roman Valerstein and Rafael Pardo.
A few who will not be back include Manrique Quezada, who was eliminated by Nicolas Malandre when he ran his A8 into Malandre’s AQ on a 10445K board, Bill Cole, Carlos Lam and Gabriel Diaz.
The 26 returning players are guaranteed at least $5,335.
