Level 6 : 300/600, 600 ante

In the last hand before the dinner break, Eliran Argelazi clashed with Stephen Kehoe and the latter was the player at risk for what appeared to be 16,200.

Stephen Kehoe: {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}
Eliran Argelazi: {k-Hearts}{k-Clubs}

Both players held premium pairs and it was Kehoe who came out on top on the {j-Clubs}{4-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} board to head into dinner on a positive note.

Level 7 : 400/800, 800 ante
Joe Stapleton
Joe Stapleton

Joe Stapleton defended the big blind against Adam Miller and spiked trips with {j-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} on the {9-Hearts}{9-Spades}{2-Hearts} flop. Miller regained the lead with {5-Spades}{5-Diamonds} after the {5-Hearts} fell on the turn but the {2-Spades} river paired the board once more to let Stapleton double his short stack of 9,300.

Jung Takes From Spragg

Level 7 : 400/800, 800 ante

Ben Spragg and Oliver Price were among many players to join after the dinner break and the former was involved in three-way action. Sebastian Jung had raised on the button to get called by Spragg in the small blind and Alex Jennings in the big blind.

There was no major action until the {j-Spades}{8-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{q-Hearts} river on which Spragg and Jennings checked. Jung bet 6,000 into 7,000 and Spragg tank-called while Jennings folded. Once Jung revealed {a-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} for the nuts, Spragg sent his cards into the muck.

Pavlov Doubles Through Peffly

Level 7 : 400/800, 800 ante

Atanas Pavlov was chipped down prior to the dinner break and then got it in with the {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}.

The Bulgarian doubled for 18,100 and jumped back above the starting stack.

Triple Up for Sitbon

Level 7 : 400/800, 800 ante
Julien Sitbon
Julien Sitbon

Down to fewer than one third of the starting stack, Julien Sitbon was all-in with the {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds}. Alexander Zeligman had that barely covered and was in there with the {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades} while Youness Barakat had both comfortably covered, revealing the {j-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}.

Barakat was fearing the worst while Sitbon had left his seat and predicted the nine of clubs would fall. Sure enough that's what happened on the {9-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{6-Spades}{k-Clubs}{a-Clubs} board as Sitbon tripled. Zeligman won the small side pot and bowed out shortly after.

Khatri Out for Now

Level 7 : 400/800, 800 ante

Bhavin Khatri had spun up a short stack once before the dinner break but was then reduced to fumes in a previous showdown. The remainder of the tiny stack went in preflop with {8-Clubs}{4-Hearts} and Gediminas Labukas called with the {6-Clubs}{6-Spades}. Only one overcard was not enough on the {a-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{9-Hearts} board as the sixes held for Labukas.

Eminoglu and Athar Lead the Pack

Two big stacks have emerged after the dinner break. Ben Slack and Yucel Eminoglu have six-figure stacks at their disposal and it was also Eminoglu who knocked out Shah Athar to add further chips. "King three is a good hand, no?" he asked in table chat with a big smile on the face as he raked in the chips.
