Dario Minieri has chips. It was worth checking because just a few minutes ago he was down to his last few thousand. The casual observer might say he had some kind of kick-ass rake back deal. Those who’ve seen him play for any length of time though know this is just the Minieri way, as if hanging around with just a handful of chips was an affront to his sense of what is right and...

Here we go with the statistics: we’re in level 15 with the blinds at 1,500-3,000 with a running 300 ante and 24 players remain. In terms of the one player lighting up the room yesterday it would have to be Team PokerStars Pro Dario Minieri. There was more to it than his explanation “I got many hands” to account for his gallivant through a tournament field, something that left some players...

Talking of Dario Minieri he’s responsible for the first elimination, seeing off Josh Gould. Minieir had made a typical stealing move on the hand prior and now raised on the button with Gould moving all-in behind him. The Englishman showed pocket fives to Minieri’s K-Q, the king dutifully arrived on the turn. Following Gould was Irishman Marty Smyth, under calling an all-in from...

If ever there was a multiple pile-up waiting to happen, it was at the table featuring Dario Minieri, Patric Martenssen and Ramzi Jelassi, to a man fierce, aggressive and devil-may-care players. The table also features - or did feature - Mark Dalimore, a British player who for half a level at least was giving as good as he got. But with the news that Minieri has almost doubled...

Last night in the PokerStars lounge, as reporters, staff and players celebrated an early halt to tournament proceedings, a small sit and go broke out for that most costly of buy-ins: pride and bragging rights. Several hands in, and with the tension at its peak, Dario Minieri popped his head around the door to see what the commotion was all about, prompting one of the players to pipe...

Team PokerStars Pro Dario Minieri just tangled in a pot against Uffe Holm in the seat to his left. Minieri had bet 3,200 from the button before Holm re-raised to 11,600. Back on Minieri the table waited for his move. That move was to raises again, another 20,000 unceremoniously taken from his stack and dumped in the middle. Well up for a fight, Holm called. While Minieri...

The draw has thrown together some pretty mean looking tables. EPT champions ElkY Grospellier and Arnaud Mattern contend with each other; Dario Minieri has Johannes Strassmann one way and Gino Alacqua the other while Katja Thater’s table features EPT London finalist Alan Smurfit and Andreas Krause. Elsewhere more former champions have been drawn together; Peter Jepsen, a winner here two...

... shorter stacks at a table that included EPT Prague winner Arnaud Mattern and WSOP bracelet winner Dario Minieri with big stacks. Barbosa won some big pots early and made a big stack which he used to bully the table. When the play got three handed he had an almost unassailable lead when he busted Minieri when his pocket nines went up against the pocket sevens of Minieri....

Like the blaze of glory performed at times yesterday by Team PokerStars Pro Dario Minieri, Arnaud Mattern is displaying similar flare at his table which features Danny Ryan, Paul Testud and the last remaining Polish player Jecek Ladny. The Frenchman just won three of four pots simply by raising in late position (and once from the small blind to mix it up a little). The table alongside...

Any mention of Team PokerStars Pro Dario Minieri is loaded with expectation, to a point where it’s hard to sound original. The thing is there is little you can do but kow-tow to adjectives like crazy and fearless that are bandied around so easily around Minieri. It’s the same today and most players at his table can only sit back and watch. Minieri only has 11,000 in front...
