With 1,550 in the pot and a board reading 
, the player in the big blind checked and Jackson Zheng bet 1,100 from early position. The big blind made the call and then checked the 
river, which prompted Zheng to bet 3,800. The big blind made a quick call but mucked just as soon as Zheng rolled over the 
for trips with top kicker.

Jamie Pickering is a well known face on the Aussie and Las Vegas poker circuit. The night club owner and businessman is fun to watch at the table as he likes to be involved in as many pots as possible.
He just won a pot off a neighbour, pocket queens beating pocket tens on a jack high board but lost some of them back the very next hand.
He raised from early position and was called by the small blind en route to a 
flop. Pickering continued for 550 and was check-called before the 
turn and river were checked through. The small blind opened 
and Pickering mucked.

The UK's Simon Deadman is no stranger to poker. He has more than $1.8 million in lifetime earnings, and last summer he won the Hollywood Poker Open $ 2,500 Main Event in Las Vegas for $351,097.
Deadman is in action today over at Table 30, and we recently caught him in a hand. We picked up the action with around 2,100 in the pot and a flop of 
. Celina Lin had bet 1,000 from the small blind and Deadman raised to 2,650 from middle position. The player in the hijack just flatted, and that was Lin's cue to bow out. When the 
peeled off on the turn, Deadman kept the pressure on with a bet of 4,600, and this time it did the trick as the hijack quickly released his hand.

Andrew Chen, not surprisingly, is continuing to be the most active player at his table. His stack dipped to start but he's recovered and sits on around 35,000. He can even win pots with king high.
The action folded around to him on the button and he raised. The big blind defended and also check-called a 250 bet on the 
flop. No more chips ventured into the middle as the turn and river were checked down.
Chen reluctantly opened and his opponent giggled saying it was good before mucking.

Peter Chan is a regular in the Macau "Big Game," but today he's in Melbourne taking his shot in the Souther Hemisphere's most prestigious poker tournament. Unfortunately his first step was one in the wrong direction.
In a recent hand, Chan opened for 250 from early position and received a call from his opponent in the big blind. The 
flop saw the big blind check-call a bet of 300, and then both players checked when the 
turn put trips on the board. The completed the board on the river, and the big blind came out with a bet of 600, which Chan paid off.
The big blind tabled the 
for fives full of sevens, and it was good as Chan silently slid his cards to the muck.

Shyam Srinivasan might not be a familiar name to many readers but he's a force to be reckoned with and should be feared at the table.
He came to prominence on the live circuit by making the 2014 PCA final table, finishing 6th for a cool $328,020. Fast forward a year later and he almost went back-to-back, busting just shy (10th) of the 2015 PCA final table for another $91,420.
These figures are dwarfed by what the Candian's achieved online. Under the handles "g's zee" and "s_dot111" he amassed a staggering $7,922,073 in recorded earnings!

Andrew Chen has dropped a little from his starting stack after letting a hand go on the river.
He raised from the cutoff, bet the flop and bet 1,400 on the turn. The big blind stuck with him all the way and led out for 2,600 when the board read 
. Chen believed he was beat and mucked his hand.
Chen had an amazing 2014 which included him winning the EPT London High Roller event for $627,647 so an early knock will not faze him.

Around 100 players took their seats for the very beginning of play, that number is expected to grow as the levels progress.
Sam Cohen is sat in front of media row and already has her table chatting away. High stakes player Peter Chan is sat one table along from Cohen. He skipped the $100,000 Challenge yesterday and is feeling fresh for the Main Event. Andrew Chen didn't skip it and will need a deep run to get out of the whole he finds himself in.
Simon Deadman is one of the UK's hottest up and coming poker talents and he's playing along with his fiancee, Shola Akindele.
