And we've finished today inside the money with 61 players remaining. Liam Flood leads the way with around 400,000 ahead of the Finn Jasse Nevalainen. Andy Black and Mad Marty Wilson are still around, while Keith Hawkins has retained a large stack.

Tomorrow we'll be playing down to our final table on Easter Sunday and then we'll be finding out who will be getting the biggest eggs.

Play will restart at 2pm.

Persaud Trebles, Hicks Busts.

[user76023]

In a multiway limped pot, three players got their stacks in on the {10-Diamonds}

board.

Nik Persaud: {8-Clubs}

Paddy Hicks: {A-Diamonds}

Jasse Nevalainen: {K-Diamonds}

The Finn was ahead but the other two both had outs, the turn {10-Clubs}

made Persaud's hand worse but actually gave him more outs. One of these was the {10-Spades}

which duly came on the river and Persaud tripled up while Hicks was eliminated by Nevalainen right at the death.
