2.15am: Play done for the day
That's the end of the day, a full wrap of the day's play is on its way. -- NW
2am: Last seven hands
Just in case these ten one-hour levels had'nt been long enough for the 90 players remaining it's just been announced that we'll play seven more hands. That's the luck of the draw. Will a breakaway chip leader emerge from the pack? There's certainly time for that to happen now. -- RD
1.50am: Chip leaders
There's 15 minutes left in the day and there's no clear chip leader but a number are clustered around 100,000: Nik Kamal (115,000), Michael White (101,000), Damian Porebski (100,000), Tony Baitson (105,000), Breifne Earley (103,000) and Callum Smith (100,000).
Word is that Kamal got his chips by eliminating Nicholas Newport in a nasty hand where Newport held [A][K] and Baitson [K][3]. All the chips went in on a [A][K][3] flop, [7] on the turn, [3] on the river. -- NW
1.35am: More from the floor
There's about 35 minutes left in the day here's what's been happening:
- Chris O'Connor's slide continues he's down to around 70,000
- David Brady's stack is going the other way - up to 85,000
- Richard Haile is up to 52,000 he's sat to the left of Alex Ferguson the two of them are having a very good 'talk off' at the moment.
- Andrew Dwyer, Thomas Hall and Nicholas Newport are all out.
1.15am: More for Earley
Breifne Earley is up to almost 100,000 after eliminating Chris Fox. I only saw the turn action but on a board of [9h][10c][3c][6d] Fox check-raised all-in for 14,700 over what looked like a bet of 4,200.
After thinking it over for a while Earley made a somewhat reluctant looking call and showed [Qd][9d]. "Your ahead," said Fox who showed [Ah][3h]. The [7h] river was a blank and Fox said: "I didn't think he'd call," as he walked off. -- NW
LEVEL UP: BLINDS 500-1,000 ante 100
1.12am: Smith gets a big bluff through
Callum Smith is up to nearly 100,000 after shoving a large bluff into Alan Dillon. Dillon had opened the pot to 2,100 pre-flop and had been called by Smith in middle position before picking up one further caller who wilted away on the [3c][5d][js] flop. The c-bet was 4,100, Smith called.
The [td] turn is where things started to look interesting when Dillon led for 9,400 and was just over min-raised to 20,100. Dillon made the call.
The [5c] river was a relative blank and Dillon checked it to Smith who moved all-in for 42,200. Dillon stacked up his chips, he had around 51,000, and then passed. Smith quickly turned over [6c][6s]. -- RD
