Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Sam Haughton opened to 3,000 from early position, only to be faced with a three-bet to 9,600 from Mitchell Hynam in the big blind.
Haughton quickly moved all in for 25,000 total and Hynam quickly called, with Haughton at risk.
Sam Haughton: K♠K♦
Mitchell Hynam: A♠A♥
Haughton had been extremely unfortunate to run his kings into Hynam's aces, and the runout of 9♠2♥8♦10♦J♦ provided no salvation for Haughton.

Picking up the action on a board of K♣Q♣J♥2♦ and with 15,000 in the middle, Nicholas Newport put out a bet of 10,000, only to be check-raised by Moya Murphy to 55,000.
Newport took some time to ponder his decision before eventually folding. Murphy showed K♦J♣ to the table for two pair, leaving Newport to shake his head.

Picking the action up on the turn with the board reading 8♦3♥10♣2♠, Aidan Hynes had put out a bet of 13,000 which was called by Derrick Wall.
On the 9♣ river Wall checked to Hynes, who promptly moved all in for around 35,000. Wall snap-called and turned over 2♦2♣ for a set of twos, which had overtaken Hynes Q♦Q♣ on the turn, sending Hynes to the exit.

Irish Poker Tour Pro Paul Carr had moved all in for 20,800 and received a call from Jude Ainsworth, with Carr at risk.
Paul Carr: 9♦9♥
Ainsworth: 6♥6♠
Carr was in great shape with a pair of nines against Ainsworth's sixes and the 3♣J♥10♦10♣9♠ runout improved him to a full house, completing a timely double up for Carr.

Picking the action up on the river with the board reading 9♠K♦Q♣7♥4♠ and with 20,000 in the middle, Irish Poker Tour Pro Darren Harbinson had put out a bet of 5,500, only to be faced with a three-bet to 17,000 by Daryl McAleenan.
Harbinson gave his opponent the eye before eventually calling, but his A♦Q♦ for second pair was bested by McAleenan's top pair with A♠K♥.
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Gunnar Wedde had opened to 3,400 under the gun, only to be faced with a three-bet from Niall McAree in middle position to 9,000.
Action folded back to Wedde, who promptly moved all in. McAree quickly called off his remaining stack of about 39,000, with McAree at risk.
Niall McAree: J♦J♠
Gunnar Wedde: A♦K♣
McAree was ahead with a pair of jacks and nothing changed on the 2♦8♣2♠3♦3♥ runout, securing the double up for McAree and leaving Wedde with crumbs.
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Jonathan Geraghty opened to 2,200 from the cutoff, to be met by a three-bet from Keith Cummins on the button to 6,000. Geraghty called.
The flop of 4♦5♠5♣ was checked through by both players.
On the A♥ turn, Geraghty check-called a bet of 5,200 from Cummins.
The river brought the J♥ and Geraghty took some time to ponder his options. As he reached for chips, but before betting, Cummins folded his hand.
Geraghty showed K♠2♠ for king-high and raked in a sizeable pot.
