As the clock ticked to zero on level seven Pescatori disappeared from his seat. Instead he was stood in the wings with a few friends crowding round the screen. As followers of European soccer will know tonight was an important Champions League date, and Pescatori’s AS Roma, the same team beloved by Team PokerStars Pro Dario Minieri, was in action against Arsenal for a quarter final place.
