Heads-up on a board of 4♣K♦7♦6♣, Nick Eastwood bet 1,000 from the button and Dan Jackson called in early position.
The river came the 3♦ and Jackson checked to Eastwood again, who this time fired out 2,700. Jackson quickly called.
Eastwood then showed K♥J♥ for a pair of kings and Jackson mucked, claiming he had two queens.
A pot of around 20,000 was already in the middle as Jamie Walden and an opponent in early position went to the river on a completed board of 5♦7♠9♣Q♣6♠.
Walden, on the button, then moved all in for 21,100 and sent his opponent deep into the tank. He considered the decision for several minutes before another tablemate called the clock.
The countdown had nearly reached zero before Walden's opponent slid his cards into the muck. "Six-seven, right," another tablemate said to Walden, who remained silent as he took the pot.
Niall Farrell, Yiannis Liperis, and Daniel Laidlaw are among the recent entries into Day 1b.
