Jeff Rossiter led out for 3,300 into a pot of around 6,000 on a flop of 
. Davidi Kitai quickly called.
Both players rapped the felt after the 
paired the board on the turn, and the Aussie moved all in for 13,600 when the 
completed the board. Kitai stared at Rossiter for quite some time, then reached for enough chips to make the call.
The French-speaking Belgian brought the chips back into his stack, studied the board, then grabbed them once again. Eventually, with a frown on his face, Kitai plopped the chips in front of him.
Rossiter ripped over 
for queens and jacks, Kitai mucked, and the Aussie high roller doubled to 40,000 chips. Kitai is still very healthy with 84,000.

Sam Trickett and his neighbor Wai Kin Yong checked on a flop of 
. Loo Junzhong fired out what looked like 1,700, and only Trickett called.
The 
turned, and Trickett opted to lead out. He flipped forward 5,200, and after tanked for a moment or two, Junzhong called.
The man with the ax (
) fell on the river, and Trickett led again - this time for 9,200. Junzhong responded with an all-in bet of 21,850, sending the Brit into the tank.
Trickett screwed up his face, examining the board and his opponent. He then asked Junzhong something that sounded like either "are you robbing me?" or "are you bluffing me?"
Junzhong didn't say a word.
Finally, Trickett folded 
face up, and Junzhong silently brought in the pot.

Randal Flowers raised to 850 from the cutoff and after Stephen Chidwick had folded his button it was on Dominik Nitsche in the small blind.
"Hey, I think Dom is about to three-bet me," Flowers said as he looked over at your truly who scribbled away.
Nitsche did indeed three-bet and made it 2,500 to go while both players kept joking around. Flowers casually put in a four-bet to 5,650 and the action was now back on Nitsche.
Flowers stared Nitsche right in the eyes for several second and cracked up saying, "You know you have beautiful eyes."
Nitsche burst out in laughter but moved all in after he regained his composure. Flowers made the call for 22,750 total and the showdown went as following.
Nitsche: 
Flowers: 
The board ran out 
and Flowers was left behind with just 2,600 chips.
"Hey Neil," Flowers yelled to events manager Neil Johnson, "When does the £2k turbo start?"
Johnson responded that the £2,000 turbo event starts at eight o'clock while Flowers moved all in. The two-time WPT winner did not get called and the same thing happened when he shoved two hands later. Flowers is still in it but he will need a few double ups in order to give himself a chance to make Day 2.
"This is pretty tilting," the short stack eventually sighed. It might seem like Flowers just jokes around but he's obviously here to get some good results. Meanwhile Nitsche is in great shape with around 48,000 chips.

We noticed that Team PokerStars Pro Chris Moneymaker was not in his seat, which usually means only one thing. Sure enough, a quick check with Chris Day at the table confirmed that the legend had fallen. According to Day, Moneymaker held 
and failed to improve against Brandon Shiels' .
Likewise, Day confirmed that former EPT Barcelona champ Kent Lundmark had also been eliminated from the tournament. He got it in holding against , but two queens on the board sent him to the rail.
