Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Kelvin Douglas opened to 6,000 from under the gun and was called by Tim Garles in middle position, as well as the big blind.

On the K♠8♣2♠ flop, Douglas continued for 9,000 and was only called by Garles.

The turn brought the 9♦. Douglas slowed down with a check and then called after Garles bet 30,000.

The 9♥ turn quickly checked through. Douglas announced ace-high while Garles revealed K♣J♦ for the winner as he is emerging as the chip leader after late-regging.

Level 9 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

After he opened the hijack, Kevin Henderson was three-bet by Justin Barnes from the cutoff. Henderson then four-bet jammed for 76,000 and was snap-called by Barnes.

Kevin Henderson: A♥A♣ All in
Justin Barnes: K♦K♣

It was the most classic of coolers with Henderson having the best of it. The board ran out safe for Henderson as it came J♦5♥2♣9♠8♠ and he got the full double at the expense of Barnes.

Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Heads-up to the turn with the board reading 9♥8♣3♣K♣, James Elliott bet 15,000 from the hijack and was called by Christopher Lockwood on the button.

On the 7♦ river, Elliott quickly jammed as the covering stack for 21,000 effective and Lockwood called it off.

Christopher Lockwood: J♦10♠ All in
James Elliott: A♣9♣

It was a cooler situation with Lockwood rivering the nut straight against the turned nut flush of Elliott. Lockwood could not get away as Elliott scooped a massive pot.
