Campbell got what he asked for with the on the turn. Tallon needed the board to pair but it didn't with the , and he appeared a little stunned by what had happened.
An exact count wasn't necessary, as it was clear soon enough that Campbell had Tallon covered.
Martin Fletcher has managed to get a big bluff through and possibly tilt Elliott Hayes in the process.
On a flop reading , Hayes had a neatly arranged row of chips worth 105,000 in front of him and Fletcher raised to 205,000 from the next seat along. Hayes went into the tank for more than five minutes and even had the clock called on him before he folded and showed the only to be shown the by Fletcher.
"Smoking!" screamed Fletcher before adding "Come to daddy!"
Hayes said nice hand before Fletcher said loudly, "Wooops!" and then a "Meow!" before adding the sizeable pot to his stack.
Dan Stacey raised to 13,000 from the hijack and Joe Grech responded with a three-bet to 43,000 from the cutoff. The button folded, as did the small blind, but Pierrick Tallon cold four-bet all-in for 247,000 in total. Stacey instantly released his hand, but Grech went into the tank for the best part of two minutes, all while Tallon was laid with his hoodie over his face and himself laying on the table, before letting his hand go.
Anthony Galloway opened the preflop betting to 15,000 and then quickly called when Adrian Filiczkowski three-bet all-in for 38,000.
Galloway was ahead, his a decent favorite to beat the of his all-in opponent. However, the flop change all of that and left Galloway needing help from the board. The was of no interest to Galloway and neither was the river, a timely double for Filiczkowski.
Pasquale Egisto has sent Christopher Corkhill to the sidelines during Level 17, the latter failing to come from behind to win a coinflip.
Egisto raised to 14,000 from early position and after the next couple of players folded, Corkhill raised all-in for around 100,000. Egisto called and turned the onto their backs, while Corkhill's tournament life hung in the balance with his needing some help.
The flop was as safe as it comes for a pair of nines, having improved to a set. The turn left Corkhill drawing dead and the river completed the community cards, busting Corkhill.
We thought we'd seen a tournament defining pot created by Craig Sewell and Rodger Reynolds but it ended with both players chopping the pot, each holding a pair of aces.
A raise by Reynolds was three-bet by Sewell who then watched on as Reynold four-bet shoved for 200,000 chips. Sewell instantly called and showed and Reynolds the , much to the displeasure of those seated at the table.
The gave Sewell a slight advantage as he could now hit a runner-runner flush. However, the put an end to those thoughts with the inconsequential confirming a chopped pot.
