Former WSOP Main Event Peter Eastgate has just arrived having bought in for today. The Danish champion of 2008 who took home over $9 million dollars as well as the most prestigious prize in poker, has sat down with a stack of around 50,000.
Joining the action on a 
flop, Jamie Burland had bet 9,000 from late position and saw Alain Fustin raise to 21,000 from two seats over. Burland, dressed impeccably in a shirt and tie, raised all in for 56,000. This all in bet sent Fustin into the tank for close to two minutes before he emerged with a call.
Burland turned over 
and Fustin must have thought they were on the river because he initially slammed his cards onto the felt face down towards the muck before retrieving them and flipping them over. Fustin's 
was not drawing dead, but it was drawing to just two outs. Those outs failed to materialise as the river was the 
and Burland doubled up.

JP Kelly has bought in late here in the ISPT Wembley Main Event and has not got off to the best of starts having lost a decent sized pot to Nicolas Cardyn.
Kelly led for 2,200 from under the gun on a 
flop and Cardyn called from his seat in the hijack. The completed a possible heart flush but Kelly did not slow down; instead, he increased his bet to 4,800. Cardyn asked for confirmation of the bet amount, possibly because it sounded like 2,800. Once armed with his new information, Cardyn raised to 12,200. Kelly face remained expressionless as he mucked his cards.
Cardyn is now rapidly approaching 200,000 chips in this tournament and is on a roll it seems.

Poor Amy Trodd has just seen her stack split in half. She called a 26,175 bet on the river of a 
board only to be shown 
by her opponent, Gaetan Balleur, who finished 26th in the WSOP Main Event last year. Trodd's been left with just 22,000 but that's still over 40 big blinds at this stage of proceedings.

Florant Marques was first to act in early position and he opened to 1,200. One player folded and David Benyamine called. That was the end of the preflop action as everyone else folded, leaving the two players to fight over a 
flop.
Marques checked to Benyamine, who placed 1,650 worth of chips over the betting line. Marques called and the dealer put the 
onto the felt. Marques checked again and then called when Benyamine went for a second shot at the pot with a 2,700 bet. The 
river saw the board have more clubs than Ibiza and again Marques checked. Benyamine reached for chips and made it 5,025 to play. Marques looked like he was considering a fold before actually calling.
Benyamine opened the 
for the nut flush and Marques mucked.
Benyamine is up to 65,000.
