Peco Stojanovski has had a roller coaster ride out of this tournament. The first big hand that occurred saw Stojanovski all in on the river of a board showing 
. In that hand Stojanovski sent his cards into the muck when Erich Stadler turned over .
When the above hand was over, Stojanovski thought he had no chips left and proceeded to leave the tournament area. It turned out he still had 2,500 left though and so he sat back down. The next hand he was all in holding [qc} against Jim Collopy's . A 
hit on the turn and he survived. But not for long.
Just a couple of hands later Stojanovski again got his stack all in against Collopy. This time Stojanovski held 
and Collopy held 
. The board ran out 
and it was home in 23rd place for Stojanovski.

When we came to Liam O'Rourke's table there was a board showing 
with around 100,000 already in the pot and Nicholas Heather was set to act in front of O'Rourke. A bet of 66,000 was sent O'Rourke's way and he quickly made a call.
River: 
On the river, Heather opted to check and O'Rourke slowly counted out a bet of 139,000. Heather then went deep into the tank, furiously studying O'Rourke. Eventually he opted to fold and sent the big pot to O'Rourke, who now has the chip lead with well over 1,000,000 in chips.

Cards came flying into the muck from every direction and it was on Craig Blight in the small blind. Blight took his time to raise it up 25,000 and Tobin Ryall then quickly popped it to 65,000. Blight again took his time, eventually making the call.
Flop: 
Blight tank-checked and Ryall again acted quickly, this time firing out 70,000. Blight thought quicker this time, flicking his cards into the muck.
