Around 40k in the pot already and the flop is

Gareth Howard has checked and Bartlomiej Grabowski moves all in for around 200k

Gazz has a dilemma "you can't have aces with the ace of spades, can you? I can't be drawing dead"

Bartlomiej responds by checking his cards and telling Gazz "I'll show if you fold"

Gazz spends a while longer thinking before folding and showing

Bartlomiej shows

Gazz "I'd have called if I'd known you had that, I had a king with it"

Bartlomiej adding even more chips to his stack.

[Luthee13]

Kevin Greathead is all in.

It folds to Edward O'Reilly who calls with a smaller stack.

Kevin has and around 2k more than Edward who has

first card over. Followed by the and the

turn, no one has any spades, Edward needs an ace or a 9 to stay in the game...

Edward doubles and reduces Kevin to fumes.

Kevin Greathead (3rd from left)

[Luthee13]

There's over 140k in the middle and the board is

Craig Daly puts Michael Farrelly all in on the river, 57k, and he instantly calls and turns

Michael up to over 280k.

[Luthee13]

Craig Daly raises in mid position to 12k

Edward O'Reilly moves all in for around 30k.

It folds back to Craig - "I don't want to lose my image but...I think I have to call..."

He then quickly throws in a call and turns his cards and hangs his head.

Edwards has

Criag has

His head is still in his hands as the board.

He looks up just in time to see a very disgruntled Edward standing and leaving the table...

[Luthee13]

20 minutes of the penultimate level left.

Ave 130k, blinds 2k/4k/4k

Craig Daly makes it 12k and gets called by Paul Sisson on the button and Michael Farrelly in the big blind.

flop

Michael checks.

Craig bets 33k

Paul moves all in.

Michael quickly folds, Craig quickly calls and turns

Paul sighs and taps the table as he turns - still outs for him though

turn and river are not helpful to Paul and he busts in 30th place. 23 get paid, just under an hour of play left...

[Luthee13]

Andy Van Houten is all in and has been called by Michael Farrelly

Michael has Andy covered and is ahead with

Andy has

hope for Andy...

almost... there it is!

Andy doubles up to around 200k

[Luthee13]

Brendan on a roll!!

He raises with and Dennis Prij calls.

flop is checked by him and Dennis.

J turn and Dennis leads for 12k, Brendan ships for around 50k, Dennis calls and shows and doesn't improve, Brendan up to around 120k.


VERY NEXT HAND and Robert Pearce raises to 15k in mid position.

Brendan makes it 45k and it folds to Robert. He moves all in.

Brendan asks for a count but can see quickly that it is small enough for him to call - around 60k and he does.

Brendan shows
Robert has

flop is great for Brendan who looks set to knock Robert out and significantly increase his stack 4 from the cash...

turn seals it and Robert is o his feet before the river.

He shakes Brendan's hand and is out of the tournament.

26 remain, 23 paid, 27 minutes of play left tonight...

[Luthee13]

flop and Colum Horan has moved all in and it is on to Mark England - he is covered if he calls, he will be at risk.

He calls and turns
Colum has

Mark England doubles to over 250k - now he has more than 1/4 of his stack, he assures me he will no longer be grumpy

[Luthee13]

Nye Venables doubles to 250k with and decimates the stack of Barrie Hearns who busts next hand.
