Level 9
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Around 20,000 was in the middle by the turn, on a board of J♦8♥5♠Q♥, in a hand between Luke Boynton in the cutoff and the big blind.
The big blind check-jammed for around 58,000 over Boynton's bet of 8,100, and after some deliberation, Boynton called to put himself at risk.
Luke Boynton: K♥9♥ 
Big Blind: 8♠8♣
Boynton had run into a set, and needed to hit his straight or flush draw on the river. Much to his disappointment, the 6♣ river was a brick, sending him to the rail.
Level 9
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
A pot of 28,000 had developed on a completed board of A♠10♥9♠5♦Q♥, in a hand between Ayush Gandhi and Ryan Jung.
Gandhi checked to Jung, who overbet jammed for 51,800, sending Gandhi deep into thought. After around two minutes, Gandhi flicked in a calling chip, and Jung tabled K♦10♦ for the missed straight draw, tapping the table.
Gandhi took the pot with A♦8♦, and complimented Jung's attempted bluff as he left the table.
Level 9
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
A player opened from the cutoff to 2,500, before Arian Kashani produced a three-bet to 7,000 from the button. Adam Neal reached for chips and cold four-bet to 17,000 from the small blind. The opener folded but Kashani called.
On the K♥K♠4♦ flop, Neal continued with a bet of 6,000, which failed to shake off Kashani.
The 5♣ hit on the turn, and Neal slid out a bet of 15,000, leading to a quick fold from Kashani.

The players have been sent on their second 20-minute break of the day.
Level 8
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Around 23,000 was in the pot on a completed board of Q♣J♣9♦K♣2♠, in a hand between Oliver Braddock in the big blind and a player in middle position.
Braddock check-called a bet of 12,000 on the river, but was shown the bad news when his opponent tabled A♠10♥ for the turned ace-high straight.
Level 8
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Around 12,000 was in the middle on a flop of 7♦7♠3♦, and action was checked four-way to Gareth Gardner on button, who slid out a bet of 5,000.
Mitchell Speck in the big blind check-jammed for 24,500, and after two early position players folded, Gardner made the call.
Mitchell Speck: K♣7♥
Gareth Gardner: K♦10♦
Speck was ahead with two pair, but had to dodge diamonds. To his relief, the 8♥ turn and 6♥ river were bricks.
Level 8
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
A player opened under the gun, and received a call from middle position, before David Thomson produced a three-bet to 7,000 from the button. Kevin Monger cold-called in the big blind, and the other players folded.
Action was checked to Thomson on the 9♣5♣2♦ flop, who slid out a bet of 10,000, which Monger called.
The 10♠ turn was checked through to the 5♦ river, where Thomson jammed for around 29,000 over a blocker bet of 5,000 from Monger.
Monger took quite some time for thought, before open-folding J♠J♣.
