Dag Martin Mikkelsen has just captured a large pot off Billy "The Croc". Crocky was the pre-flop raiser making it 2,300 to go and Mikkelsen made the call.

Both players checked the flop of {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}. Mikkelsen then bet out 5,000 on the turn of {2-Diamonds} and Crocky made the call. The river brings the {9-Clubs} and Mikkelsen re-checks his cards before announcing that he is all in. Crocky goes into the tank for an eternity before folding his cards.

Dag Martin Mikkelsen, who is well known for his tremendously deep run in the 2007 World Series of Poker Main Event, is now up with our chip leaders in today's field with around 26,000 chips.

Saul Survives

Kevin "BeL0WaB0Ve" Saul pushed the last of his 1,300 chips into the middle pre-flop and Gary Benson made the call.

Saul flipped over {4-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} saying "They are the cards that are going to win me this hand!" before also showing {J-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}. Benson showed {A-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{9-Spades}{8-Hearts}.

Remarkably the flop came {9-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{A-Diamonds} and Saul had flopped the flush to survive the confrontation with a much needed double up!
