Patrice Brandt was all in preflop for around 120,000 against Christopher Brammer, who had well covered as players revealed their cards.
Patrice Brandt: A♣Q♣ 
Christopher Brammer: 10♣10♦
It was a straightforward flip, one that Brammer won as Brandt failed to pair his cards on a board of 8♣K♠4♠J♦8♦. Brandt was eliminated and Brammer chipped up to a touch over one million.
Sinead Davenport open-raised to 16,000 from middle position and Andrew Hulme called in the hijack. The flop came 2♥J♣Q♦ and Davenport made a small bet, which Hulme called. Both players then checked on the K♥ turn.
The river was the 3♠ and Davenport fired out a large bet of 75,000, which seemed to send Hulme into a bit of a spin as he squirmed on his chair before making the fold. Davenport scooped in the pot.
"All in and call!", shouted the dealer. It was Ian Simpson, all in for around 185,000 against Christopher Cunliffe, who looked him up from the next seat with the covering stack.
Ian Simpson: A♦A♠
Christopher Cunliffe: A♥K♥
The flop came 8♥Q♦8♦ and Simpson looked pretty safe, although he pointed out the backdoor heart possibilities. The turn came the 10♦ and Cunliffe shouted out for a "jack!".
The river was a miraculous J♠, which gave Cunliffe the broadway straight. He cracked Simpson's aces to scoop in a huge pot that puts Cunliffe towards the top of the counts.
Simpson, who started Day 2 as the chip leader, was eliminated in 78th place.
Action folded around to Damien Palayer, who open-raised to 18,000 from the small blind. Terrance Reid made the call in the big blind, despite his short stack.
The flop came 7♠J♠3♠ and Palayer continued for 10,000, which Reid called. On the 7♣ turn, Palayer led again with a small bet of 14,000. Reid responded by moving all in for 81,000. Palayer folded and Reid won the pot.
