Two spots from the money, Jack Rhodes moved all in for 102,000 under the gun, being looked up by Alex Montgomery in middle position.
Jack Rhodes: K♣Q♠ 
Alex Montgomery: A♦Q♥
The board ran out an inconsequential 7♣3♦9♣8♥9♠, sending Rhodes to the rail and leaving the field on the stone bubble.
Over at another table, Stefan Lazar had pushed all in on the cutoff and saw James Alner call off in the small blind for about 50,000.
James Alner: 7♠7♣
Stefan Lazar: A♣J♦
Lazar paired up on the K♥9♥J♥ flop for a big lead, although the 10♥ turn provided Alner with plenty of chop outs. His fate as bubble boy was sealed on the 4♣ river, however, being the final player to depart without a cash.
The 38 remaining players all pocketed a minimum of £1,070 for making it to the money, and play continued on Day 2 of the UKPL Coventry Main Event.

Simpson's top kicker remained in play when the 10♠9♦ runout gave both players trip nines, seeing him soar up the rankings as he ended with just under 60 big blinds in his stack.

Wantao Tang raised to 25,000 in the hijack. Yucel Eminoglu put in a small three-bet to 68,000 from the small blind, which Tang called after inquiring about Eminoglu's stack.
Eminoglu bet 60,000 on the K♣5♠8♣ flop, seeing his opponent quickly call. Both players then checked the 10♠ turn, but Eminoglu picked the aggression back up on the 3♥ river with a bet of 115,000.
Tang swiftly laid his hand down, and Eminoglu tabled 6♦2♥, telling Tang, "I won't let you steal my blinds."

Richard Wells: Q♦J♥
Vitor Paiva: K♠Q♣
Wells was dominated by Paiva's hand, and the 8♠2♠7♠2♣4♦ runout left both players unimproved to confirm Wells' elimination.
