Brian Roberts may have done it easy against Tino Lechich in the second round, but his third round match against Harold Olson proved a fair bit more of a challenge.

Roberts had to overcome going behind 1-0, to take the match 2-1.

His winning hand saw all the money go in on a flop of {j-Diamonds}

{j-Diamonds}

{9-Hearts}

{3-Hearts}

with Olson holding {9-Clubs}

{9-Clubs}

{3-Diamonds}

for two pair against Roberts' {6-Hearts}

{6-Hearts}

{7-Hearts}

flush draw.

The {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

hit the turn putting Roberts in front, and the {6-Spades}

{6-Spades}

bricked the river, making Roberts the first man to cash from today's flight, and sending him into the quarter-finals tomorrow.
