Robin Peebles in the hijack bet the 
turn for 6,500 to pick up a call by Alan Vinnicombe on the button. The 
fell on the river and Peebles now bet 17,000, which had Vinnicombe covered. The latter reluctantly called all-in for 14,800 and Peebles briefly flashed his cards.
Vinnicombe banged his hand on the table but this time it was in delight and not upset, as his 
for the jack-high straight was the best hand. Peebles was left with around 4,000 and busted shortly after.

The far biggest stack in the room right now belongs to James Gold while his table also features the likes of Dan Wilson, Alexios Zervos, and Dritan Arapi. Gold was involved in a four-way limped pot in which the 
flop was checked through. On the 
turn, Gold bet 1,600 in the cutoff and Arapi called on the button.
The river was checked by Gold, Arapi then bet 3,500 and Gold tank-called to announce two pair and reveal the 
. It was then pointed out to him that it was a full house, to which Arapi mucked with a sigh.

On a completed board of 
, Bhavin Khatri faced a bet worth 10,000 by Gem Husnu. There were 11,000 in the middle until then and Khatri sighed almost immediately. "I might just make a nit fold and give you the benefit of the doubt," Khatri said and then mucked his cards.
Husnu didn't show but mentioned in table chat he had missed a flush draw. "You can still show," Khatri replied back with a grin on the face.
The same table also features Gary Miller as well, who re-entered recently.

Antoine Saout raised to 600 and received two callers including Chris Petty in the small blind. Nazim Cherkit then got the last 4,300 in from the big blind and Saout reraised to 20,600 for the vast majority of his stack. Petty inquired if it was a reraise and then folded for the showdown to proceed.
Nazim Cherkit: 
Antoine Saout:
The 
board let Petty sigh as he mentioned in table chat to have folded pocket jacks.

Sebastian Skurynski raised to 800 before a three-bet to 2,400 came in. Oliver White then four-bet to 6,200 and Skurynski called, the three-bettor folded. On the 
flop, White check-raised all-in with the superior stack and Skurynski called it off.
Sebastian Skurynski: 
Oliver White:
The dominated pair found no help on the turn and 
river to award the pot to White, who then took a sip from his fresh Cafe Latte. Apparently, that dish comes with a set of chips as well as the player from one seat over almost immediately contemplated to order one as well.
