Fellow British players Adam 'IT5PAYDAY' Neal, Steven Warburton, Billy Chattaway, David Vamplew and partypoker UK Poker Championships Super High Roller winner Steven Morris are amongst the players to already have secured a seat for Day 2.
Play will conclude when the 12 40-minute levels have been completed and at which point a full list of the Day 2 players and their chip-counts will be made available.

Swales Returns to Action
Level 1
: 500/1,000, 500 ante
Hannah Swales was on the button when she three-bet to 8,500 after a player in middle position had raised and the player in the cutoff had flat called. The initial raiser decided to call and the cutoff folded before a 
flop fell.
Swales continued for 8,000 after her opponent had checked only to see him raise it up to 30,000. It was a very early decision to make for Swales and she folded after thinking through her options for around 30 seconds.

Level 2
: 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Facing a limp from a player in middle-position, Karol Radomski raised to 3,300, Ben Vinson in the small blind called as did the original limper. Radomski continued for 6,000 on the 
flop after both players had checked to him. Radomski's bet got just the one call as Vinson folded.
The turn 
saw both players check and after the river was revealed to be the 
neither player wanted to bet and Radomski mucked when he saw his opponent turn over 
for a pair.

With 40,000 already in the pot and the flop laid out 
, Will Kassouf faced a bet of 20,000 from his opponent in the small blind. Kassouf, who was in middle-position, had a stack of around 75,000 behind him and took his time to think.
"You must have ace-high?" he asked, but got no response.
He then announced all-in and was quickly called.
Will Kassouf:
