Seth Davies and Ben Heath were all in pre-flop with each player holding close to their original starting stack.
Ben Heath: 
Seth Davies: 
Heath was way ahead but the 
put Davies firmly out in front.
The 
turn was no help to Heath as Davies had the bigger club.
The 
completed the board and after the dealer counted out Davies' stack of 105,000, Heath admitted he was barely covered and left the tournament area.
There was a decent pot brewing with the board reading 
on the flop. Nick Petrangelo, from under the gun, put out a bet of 20,000 and Mikita Badziakouski called from the button.
On the 
turn, Petrangelo went all in. Badziakouski, who had 56,500 behind, considered his options for just under a minute before letting his cards go.
With around 11,500 already in the pot with the board reading 
, Michael Addamo checked from the big blind over to Sirzat Hissou, who put in a bet of 10,000.
Addamo sat there in contemplation before going virtually all in, leaving a solitary T-500 chip behind.
Hissou took about 30 seconds before putting Addamo all in. Addamo flicked in his last chip and turned over 
for the wheel.
Hissou, who was left with just 1,000 after the hand, turned over 
for two pair having also turned a flush draw.
Level: 1
Blinds: 500/1,000
Ante: 1,000
