According to the screens, some 250 players out of a 479-entry strong field remain and they play the penultimate level of the night before taking a short break, play one more level and bag and tag. All those that fail to claim chips for Day 2 can still enter the competition again during the first two levels and subsequent break tomorrow, and the single re-entry rule applies there as well.
German Anton Morgenstern got his last chips in with 
only to be looked up by 
. The 
flop didn't help his cause, neither did the 
turn nor river.
Ultimately Morgenstern did gain some chips on the all-in, exactly one million as a matter of fact. He got them in the cashier, and they cost him £5,300.
235 players are still going at it here at Dusk Till Dawn Nottingham.

A massive pot of more than 1.7m was brewing between Iaron Lightbourne in the cutoff and Philip Hepburn in the big blind, the board was showing 
. Hepburn checked and Lightbourne moved all in, his stack was counted and the shove was for 1,509,500.

Philip Hepburn:
The 
on the river was a brick and Hepburn lost a big chunk of his stack. Two years ago, Lightbourne won the £2,200 WPT Nottingham Main Event here in the Dusk Till Dawn for a career-best score of £200,000 and the Brit is looking for an even bigger payday in this week.

After a raise by the player in under the gun, Vicente Deldago called on the button and Fahd Bennani Smires defended the big blind. On the 
flop, the action checked to Delgado and he bet 75,000, which Bennani Smires then check-raised to 225,000. The player under the gun folded and Delgado called.
The turn was checked and Bennani Smires then shoved the 
river. It was a bad timing for the Moroccan to bluff with 
, as Delgado had flopped a set and rivered a full house with 
to double up.
