Ian Simpson bet 15,000 from the small blind on a three-way flop of 4♠3♥5♥. Arian Kashani called in the big blind, but Ciaran McCullagh had other plans and raised to 50,000 on the button.
Simpson and Kashani both called, causing the 7♣ to appear on the turn. Simpson counted his chips and debated a bit before announcing his all-in for 120,500.
Kashani snap-folded, and McCullagh eventually mucked his cards as well after spending a few minutes in the tank.
Arian Kashani raised it up to 130,000 in the hijack. Harry Sandford called on the button before Josh Manley started counting his 105,500 chips in the big blind.
Eventually, the 888poker ambassador jammed all in. Kashani rejammed after some thought, forcing Sandford out of the pot.
Josh Manley: A♦9♣
Arian Kashani: K♠Q♦
Manley was ahead preflop, but Kashani turned a pair on 10♣4♠5♣Q♥ for a big lead. The 9♦ river was not enough to save Manley, who departed Day 1b with about an hour left to play.
From early position, Stefan Lazar committed his last 65,000 into a pot of the same size on the 4♦7♠2♥5♠ turn. His opponent was Andrew Lam, who had him covered by a wide margin.
Stefan Lazar: 9♦7♦
Andrew Lam: 7♥7♣
Lazar had no outs against the set of Lam, and the meaningless Q♣ river was dealt as Lazar took his leave.
The action was caught on a completed board of J♦10♦4♠5♠J♠. Michael Rolt checked from the big blind to Lee Rogers in late position, who added a small bet of 35,000 to the pot of 187,500.
Rolt quickly called for Rogers to table K♦8♦, a bluff with king-high. Rolt played A♦A♣ for an overpair and was awarded the big pot as he soared up the rankings.
Level: 14
Blinds: 3,000/6,000
Ante: 6,000
Ryan Seary opened the action with a raise to 10,000 from middle position. Terelle Tavares flatted his button before Thomas Clack three-bet jammed his stack of 72,500 in the middle.
Seary called the all-in, prompting Tavares to get out of the way.
Thomas Clack: K♣Q♠
Ryan Seary: A♣K♥
The board ran out inconsequential with 4♠6♥6♣3♠5♦ emerging from the deck. Seary's ace-high was enough to send Clack to the rail and chipped him up to about 70 big blinds.
Yuzhou Yin raised to 10,000 in the cutoff and called when Andrew Lam three-bet to 25,000 in the small blind.
Lam bet 15,000 on the 10♥8♠4♦ flop, Yin min-raised to 30,000, and Lam put his opponent all in for 50,000. Yin quickly called off.
Yuzhou Yin: A♥8♥
Andrew Lam: A♦10♦
Lam had flopped the higher pair. No eight appeared on the remaining 9♣2♥ runout, sending Yin to the rail.
