Hicklin Loses a Flip
Level 4
: 150/300, 25 ante
Jacob Hicklin got it in before the flop holding 
against Colin George Gartshore's 
. The board ran out 
and Hicklin had to forfeit 12,725 chips.
When all counting was done though, he was short 5,000 and eventually got that back from the dealer who had made a mistake.
"I think I'd prefer the other, just lose and re enter" Hicklin said. Hicklin was left with about 6,000 and just 4 minutes left in the last level re entering is possible.

Trumper Wins Big on Second Bullet
Level 4
: 150/300, 25 ante
Simon Trumper bust during the first four levels but reentered to take another shot. If the first hand of his new stack is anythign to go by, it could be a profitable afternoon for Trumper as he's gone from 25,000 to 37,000.
Vadim Cojocaru raised to 675 from middle position and Trumper raised to 1,250 and was called. Trumper then led for 2,200 on the 
flop and Cojocaru called. The turn was the and Trumper said, "this could be a really short tournament" before betting 5,500. Again, Cojocaru called.
The river was the 
and Trumper bet 5,500 only to be raised to 11,000. Trumper then shoved all-in for 21,500 in total and after 30-second or so, Cojocaru laid his hand down leaving himself with 11,200 chips.

Gavin a Goner
Level 4
: 150/300, 25 ante
Fintan Gavin told us not too long ago about a pot he lost to Jamie Mcmurdo, but made a comeback flopping quads right after. Gavin's seat was now taken by the re entering Jake Cody though, so we asked his former neighbor Mcmurdo what had happened.
Mcmurdo told us he was the one busting Gavin. Mcmurdo had 
and had called the over shove on the 10-high flop. Gavin had nothing but a mere 
according to Mcmurdo and din't improve.

Saxby Mucks a Winner
Level 4
: 150/300, 25 ante
As we walked by table 7 before the break, we saw a board of 
and it went check check on the river between Kelly Saxby and Paul Moran. We weren't really writing anything down as the pot was rather small and the river action wasn't too exciting.
That was until Moran showed and Saxby mucked. As soon as she released her cards into the muck, Saxby realized what she had done and said "Wait...", but it was too late. Moran took the pot with nines and sevens with a five kicker.
Saxby is still in good shape though, she has around 30,000 at the moment.
