The action was picked up with the flop reading J♦9♣5♣. Karl Nolan checked out of the small blind and Larry Ryan bet 2,500 from the button. Nolan check-raised to 8,000 which Ryan called.
The Q♠ dropped on the turn and Nolan continued with a bet of 21,000. Ryan deliberated for quite some time before he eventually decided to fold and surrender the pot to Nolan.
Peter Burnett shoved for around 33,000 from the small blind over an open from Simon Wilson out of the cutoff. Wilson took his time and after getting a count from the dealer, made the call to try and bust Burnett.
Peter Burnett : A♠K♣
Simon Wilson: 10♥10♠
It was a classic coin flip, and when the board ran out 9♦4♣5♥J♠Q♠, Wilson's pocket tens held up against Burnett's Big Slick, knocking him out of the tournament.

Didzis Nikitins had become short-stacked with just 8,000 remaining in his stack. He decided to put them all into the middle preflop from early position and after the rest of the table folded, Rune Larder snap-called from the big blind.
Didzis Nikitins : K♥Q♦
Rune Larder : A♦A♣
Nikitins was unfortunate to run into aces and would need a lot of help from the dealer if he was to remain in his seat. The board ran out A♥7♣2♦2♣7♦ to give Larder a full house, and Nikitins was eliminated.
The action was picked up with the flop showing 8♠4♠A♦. Robbie Bryant checked from the big blind and Vilius Kadelskas bet 2,500 from early position. Des Farrell raised to 7,500 from the button before Bryant three-bet to 25,000.
Kadelskas thought it over for a while before folding, whereas Farrell snap-folded and showed Ax10x for top pair. Bryant was nice enough to show he had that beat with A♠8♥ for top two pair.
Sean Byrne raised to 2,000 under the gun with Stephen Houghland calling from the button before Hiep Ninh three-bet to 6,500 out of the small blind. Byrne folded, but Ninh called.
Ninh continued with a bet of 2,000 on the 3♦8♠Q♠ flop and Houghland called.
Ninh bet 7,500 when the 9♥ fell on the turn. Houghland didn't think for too long before folding and forfeiting the pot to Ninh.
