Francis Obadun was at risk for 109,000 in the big blind after a blind-on-blind confrontation with Martin Olali in the small blind covering Obadun.
Francis Obadun: K♦10♣
Martin Olali: Q♠10♠
Obadun had Olali dominated after a flop of 5♥3♥3♦, but the Q♥ turn gave Olali two pair. The story was not over though, as the K♥ completed the board to give Obadun a better two pair and the double-up.

Late Registration has come to an end for Day 1a. A total of 91 players have registered for the first flight and the remaining 61 players will be hoping to bag a stack for Day 2.
Level: 7
Blinds: 2,500/5,000
Ante: 5,000
Players have exited the tournament area for a 15-minute break
This will be the last opportunity for players to enter Day 1a, as registration closes once level seven begins. Day 1b will begin at 5 p.m. if players wish to bag a stack for Day 2.
With 98,000 in the middle, three players saw the flop of 10♣9♦2♥. Chris Da-Silva bet 25,000 from the big blind and was met with a shove from the under the gun Dinu Cozac.
Joe Smith on the button took a moment before folding. Da-Silva scrutinized Cozac's stack and decided the 114,000 stack was worth fighting for and made the call.
Dinu Cozac: 7♥7♦
Chris Da-Silva: J♥J♠
Cozac stood up immediately after Da-Silva revealed pocket jacks. There was no help for Cozac as the 2♦A♣ completed the board and Da-Silva has more than doubled his starting stack despite sitting down in level five.
