Cardyn Claims Some of Clark's Chips
Level 2
: 150/300, 0 ante
Charles Clark made a rather large raise of four-times the big blind from the cutoff seat. Next to act was Rony Halami on the button who called the 1,200 bet. From the small blind, Nicolas Cardyn squeezed out a substantial raise of 4,300 and only Clark called.
The 
flop prompted Cardyn to continue with a 4,400 bet. Clark tossed in a solitary 5,000 chip to make the call. The 
saw the roles of the players reverse. Cardyn checked, Clark bet 1,800 and Cardyn went don the passive route and called. The river was the 
and both players checked.

Hero Call Backfires on Vinson
Level 2
: 150/300, 0 ante
Jonathan Weeks checked from the big blind with the board reading 
putting the action on Ben Vinson. From the button, Vinson tested the waters with a 1,200 bet, a bet that Weekes wasted little time in calling. The turn brought the 
into play and neither player seemed to impressed with its arrival as they both checked.
The 
completed the board and Weekes upped the aggression and splashed a bet of 1,450. Vinson remained motionless, except for the riffling of green chips. Less than a minute later, Vinson called but quickly mucked as Weekes turned over the 
for a pair of nines.
Vinson drops to around 53,000.

Aido Aido It's Off to Work He Goes
Level 2
: 150/300, 0 ante
Spain's Sergio Aido has fond memories of playing poker in London having completely smashed the opposition back in March.
Aido's amazing run began with a victory in the PokerStars UKIPT London Main Event for £144,555. He then finished second in a £1,000 turbo side event for an additional £20,000 before finishing 70th in the EPT London Main Event for £9,500. Aido was not done there, he continued his one man wrecking spree of London by coming second in the £2,000 No Limit Hold'em Six-Max event for a score of £26,460.
Watch out for him going deep in this special tournament.

Deeb Steals a Pot
Level 2
: 150/300, 0 ante
There was a multi-way contested pot over on Table 4 where Ross Murphy had open-limped under the gun, Freddy Deeb and Michael Tureniec called from the next two seats over, Steven Csepreghi called on the button and Stephane Gerin spoiled the party by raising to 2,200 from the small blind. Amazingly, everyone called, including Enrico Buzzanka in the big blind.
The 
flop saw the first three players check. Freddy Deeb took a 4,000 chip stab at the pot and to everyone's surprise, the active players folded.
As the dealer pushed the pot in Deeb's direction he gave us a wink and a wry smile.

It's Getting Hot in Here
Level 1
: 100/200, 0 ante
It is not only the action that is heating up in the tournament area, the temperature has started to soar too.
The large plastic, inflatable tents combined with a couple of hundred players and the fact the sun in blaring down on everything here at Wembley is seeing the mercury rise. The heat could become a major factor later on today, whoever manages to deal with scorching temperatures will have an advantage here in the ISPT Main Event.
More Big Names Flock to Wembley
Level 1
: 100/200, 0 ante
Players continue to flock to Wembley Stadium to buy in directly to the ISPT Wembley Main Event, some of who are listed below.
Many of the direct buy-ins are being seated on the same tables at each other, which has caused more than a few grumbles from them. With the players being so deep stacked it is unlikely many tables will break during the early stages of this event so they will just have to grin and bear it for now.
