News reached us that Martins Adeniya's amazing level continued as he flopped a full-house in a race to eliminate another player.
No such luck for Toby Lewis. He was crippled in hand when he turned top pair against an opponent who turned two-pair. He shoved the next hand with ace-seven and the same player called with ace-queen to end it for him.
