The action was picked up with Conor McCrossan betting 4,000 from the hijack on a flop of 5♠10♠J♠. Nicholas Harrison shoved from the blinds for around 25,000 before Stewart Samuels moved all in himself for 40,000 from early position. McCrossan folded and the cards were flipped over.
Nicholas Harrison : Q♠9♦
Stewart Samuels: 3♠2♠
Samuels had flopped a flush, but Harrison could hit a higher flush if another spade were to fall. The rest of the board ran out 10♦10♣ and Samuels' baby flush sent Harrison to the rail.
Karl Hedderman raised to 2,600 from middle position with Mick Graydon calling from the cutoff and Philip Hepburn defending his big blind.
When it checked to Hedderman on the Q♠A♥3♣ flop, he bet 3,000 and only Graydon called.
Hedderman fired 4,500 upon seeing the 5♥ hit the turn. Graydon once again called.
When the dealer dropped the 2♥ on the river Hedderman fired a big bet of 15,000. Graydon thought it over for a few moments before making the call. Hedderman showed Q♦Q♣ for a set of queens and took down the pot.

The action was picked up with the flop showing A♦10♣7♥. Alberto Ponce got his last 25,000 into the middle with Daniel O'Herlihy shoving over the top, and Austin Putnam-Johnson making the call from the cutoff.
Alberto Ponce : 7♦7♣
Austin Putnam-Johnson: A♣10♠
Daniel O'Herlihy : A♠10♦
O'Herlihy had slightly more chips than Putnam-Johnson, so Putnam-Johnson was also at risk. However, both O'Herlihy and Putnam-Johnson had top two pair, but Ponce currently had the best had with a set of sevens.
The 8♣ turn followed by the 6♥ river, meant Ponce would triple up, and Putnam-Johnson and O'Herlihy were left with fumes.
Stewart Samuels shoved for 5,000 under the gun and Massimo Pacini moved all in himself for around 8,000 from the cutoff. Jamie Kelly made the call the from the big blind to put both players at risk.
Stewart Samuels : A♣K♦
Massimo Pacini : 9♦9♠
Jamie Kelly : Q♥8♥
The dealer put out a flop of Q♦J♣Q♠, giving Kelly trip queens. Samuels or Kelly didn't improve on the A♦ turn or 5♦ river, and all of their chips were sent over to Kelly.
Vilius Kadelskas three-bet shoved for his last 5,000 from the button over an open from Steven Bartley out of the cutoff. Bartley called to put Kadelskas at risk.
Vilius Kadelskas : A♣K♣
Steven Bartley : A♠J♣
Kadelskas was ahead with Big Slick and needed to fade a jack to begin his comeback. However, the 6♦J♦Q♦ flop put Bartley in the lead with a pair of jacks. The 3♦ came on the turn, but the 10♠ fell on the river to give Kadelskas Broadway and he stayed alive in the tournament.
