"Set of Nines No Good?"

Level 3 : 100/200, 25 ante

Jack Kershaw raised to 750 from the button and Graeme Bester called in the small blind. The flop came {k-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{9-Spades} and Bester checked to Kershaw who bet 1,250. Bester raised to 4,000.

Kershaw thought about calling but eventually he folded the {a-Clubs} face up. Bester took one look at his cards and flashed {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades} to his opponent before mucking.

Kershaw laughed. "I was literally about to ask if a set of nines was good or not!"

James Mitchell vs Luke Hyndman

Level 3 : 100/200, 25 ante

On a flop of {j-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{5-Spades} two players checked to James Mitchell who bet 1,200. Luke Hyndman called and the third player folded.

The turn was the {k-Hearts} and Hyndman led for 2,400. Mitchell called.

On the river, which was the {2-Spades}, Hyndman reached for a 5,000-value chip and threw it forward announcing "Three and a half" as he did so. There was a murmur from the table about what the value of the bet could be, and the dealer called the floor.

The floor ruled that owing to the current blind level of 100/200, and the "ambiguity of the bet," the bet was to be ruled 350. Mitchell called and Hyndman mucked his cards. Mitchell turned over {a-Diamonds}{j-Spades} and said that he was going to call anyway.

Andrew Christoforou Back in the Field

Level 2 : 100/200, 0 ante

After trying his luck on Day 1a, Andrew Christoforou has jumped back in the field today. The Englishman who finished 18th in the WSOP Main Event last year was famous for his tabletalk during the live coverage, and his friendship with fellow motor-mouth William Kassouf.

Julian Hazelhof vs Al-Farouk Moyosore

Level 2 : 100/200, 0 ante

Al-Farouk Moyosore raised from the button to 600 and Julian Hazelhof defended his big blind.

The flop came {a-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{4-Hearts}. "Let's have a little fun," said Hazelhof who then led out for 1,400 into a pot of 1,300, "You might raise me!" he continued.

Moyosore called and the turn was the {5-Hearts}. Hazelhof continued for 2,100.

"I thought you had Ace-Four," said Moyosore, "What is going on!"

"I'll show you," said Hazelhof, "I'll show everyone at the table."

"You're talking like you have a big Ace," said Moyosore, who eventually called.

Both players checked the {q-Spades} on the river. Hazelhof showed {5-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} for a set of fives and Moyosore {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} for a flush.
