Level 25 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
Leigh Wiltshire
Leigh Wiltshire

Joining the action on the turn, the board was reading {Q-Diamonds}{A-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{9-Hearts} and Nick Hicks had fired a bet of 110,000 after both players checked the flop. Wiltshire made it 300,000 and Hicks thought for a moment before making the call.

The river was the {K-Clubs} and Hicks tanked for a minute before leading for 700,000, Wiltshire deliberated for a bit as to what to do, eventually he moved all in and Hicks instantly called.

Hicks: {J-Spades}{10-Hearts}
Wiltshire: {K-Spades}{K-Hearts}

Wiltshire's rivered set had made Hicks a straight for another monster pot.

Julian Gardner moved all in from the cut-off and Devilfish, on the button, slammed his chips in to call, declaring it the best hand he’d had all day. The blinds folded and the cards were flipped over.

Gardner had {A-Hearts} {8-Spades} and Devilfish had {K-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds}

The board came {2-Hearts} {10-Clubs} {6-Clubs} {5-Spades} {3-Diamonds}

No good for the Devilfish. He was out in 14th for €14,000

Freddy Deeb

Freddy Deeb was all in preflop and was called by Jean Miguel Lacerda and Jerome Brion. The flop came {10-Spades}{3-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} and Lacerda checked, Brion fired a bet of 300,000 and the Portuguese player folded.

Deeb: {K-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}
Brion: {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}

"Nine, one time!" said Deeb.

The {6-Clubs} came on the turn and the {10-Hearts} river meant that Deeb was eliminated in 13th place. He left the table, wishing everyone luck.

Level 26 : 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante
Florian Hoeller
Florian Hoeller

Florian Hoeller had a terrible Level 26 that resulted in his untimely demise.

Ferhad Seyadi opened to 140,000 in late position and Hoeller moved all in on the button for just 300,000. Jerome Brion called in the big blind. The two active players checked down the {10-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{q-Hearts} board, Seyadi winning with ace-high.

Bassam Elia Eliminated in 11th Place (€19,000)

Level 27 : 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante
Bassam Elia
Bassam Elia

Bassam Elia's tournament has come to an abrupt end at the hands of Nick Hicks.

Elia opened in the cutoff and then called off his remaining 700,000 chips when Hicks set him all in from the big blind. Elia, a rank amateur who usually plays homes games only, turned over {9-Spades}{9-Hearts} and was up against Hicks' {K-Clubs}{10-Clubs}.

Hicks took the lead on the {6-Clubs}{K-Spades}{2-Clubs} flop, a flop that left Elia drawing to one out. The {A-Hearts} was not one of them and neither was the {2-Spades}. Elia heads home with €19,000 in prize money and a great story to tell among his friends.

Firework on the flop - Linton Busts Gardner

Folded around to Pete Linton in the small blind he raised to 24,000. Julian Gardner called from the big blind.

The flop was {10-Hearts} {9-Hearts} {10-Spades}

Linton led out with a bet for 240,000. Gardner thought for a while and then raised to 550,000.

Linton then thought for a long time. Checking his hole cards several times.

He eventually reached for a stack of and bet 2,700,000 enough to put Gardner all in.

Gardner called instantly and turned over {10-Diamonds} {5-Diamonds}

Linton showed his {A-Spades} {8-Spades}

There was a brief pause while Simon Trumper was summoned to call the action, and then the dealer dealt the last two cards.

The turn was {4-Spades} and the river was {K-Spades}

Runner, runner spades and Linton's nut flush sent Gardner crashing out of the ISPT with €26,520.

We are now just one elimination away from completing Day 5 of the ISPT Wembley Main Event after Jerome Brion was eliminated in eighth place.

Brion open-shoved from early position for around 1,200,000 chips with what turned out to be {10-Clubs}{10-Spades} and Gwendoline Jadot woke up in the big blind with {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs} and she decided to call.

Jadot's call was rewarded with a king on the {7-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} flop. The turn was the {6-Spades} leaving Brion needing a ten and only a ten in order to stay in the tournament. Unfortunately, for him at least, the river was the {4-Spades} and Brion exited in eighth place for €37,000.
