Boxell's Back in Business!
Level 6
: 200/400, 50 ante
Leo Boxell has now moved to more than 115,000 in chips after eliminating Tore Lukashagen in one of the last hands before the break.
We caught the action on the feature table with a flop that read 
; Lukashagen opened for 6,500, Boxell raised to 16,500 and Lukashagen reraised all-in. Boxell checked his cards, nodded and then made the call.
Lukashagen: 
Boxell: 
BINK! Down came the 
on the turn, giving Boxell the nut flush an leaving Lukashagen drawing dead. "Just like that, standard procedure," Lukashagen muttered as the dealer completed the board with the river 
.
Delaney Crushing Souls, As Always
Level 6
: 200/400, 50 ante
Over at table 30, we discovered that Jay "SEABEAST" Kinkade had taken over from Lee "Final Table" Nelson in seat five. We also saw that Ben Delaney was sitting on a mountain of chips. Natuarlly we had to enquire as to how he acquired said chips.
"I'm not sure if I really want to tell you," Delaney replied. He did share the details though (we insisted upon it), and he told us that he'd made a rather cheeky play with 
. The money ended up all in on the turn on a board that read 
(two clubs).
Nelson was way out in front with for top set, but Delaney binked the club on the river to flush Nelson away - and as a result, Delaney is now the outright chip leader with 145,000!
Huntly Clocked!
Level 6
: 200/400, 50 ante
Dennis Huntly is down to just 7,000 in chips after losing a big pot to Daniel Neilson.
We arrived at the table with a rather sizeable pot formed and the last of Neilson's stack in the middle while Huntly was agonizing over a decision. It must have been for quite a while, because the player to the right of the dealer called for a clock.
"You called for the clock?" Huntly said. "All right, I guess we can all wait then."
The tournament supervisor advised Huntly he had 60 seconds to act. "Hey Daniel, you wanna get a drink while we wait?" Huntly asked Neilson.
"Sure, if we can get a waitress in time," Neilson replied. The tournament supervisor advised Huntly he had 10 seconds to act, counted down from five and after the hand was ruled dead, Huntly flashed 
before dropping his hand into the muck.
"I think you saved me there, mate," Huntly said to the player who called time on him. "If you hadn't called the clock on me I would have been out of the tournament and at the bar!"
While Huntly isn't out, we can confirm that both Frederik Jensen and Roy Vandersluis have just been eliminated from the feature table. Karib Karib has now been moved to Jensen's seat.
