Duta Done By Drum
Level 6
: 300/600, 600 ante
Shortly after the blinds went up, Conor Drum raised and then called the shove by a short-stacked Florian Duta for around 12,000.
Duta tabled the 
and was well ahead of 
. The 
flop gave Drum the flush draw, which he instantly hit on the 
turn to leave Duta drawing dead. A meaningless 
river only improved Drum to the nut flush as Duta quickly left the tournament area.

Level 6
: 300/600, 600 ante
As the action accelerates towards the end of the first half on Day 1a, the shorter stacks keep on getting the chips in with all-in and call announcements spreading through the tournament room every other second.
Dan Samson was involved in one of these in a battle of the blinds when he got it in with 
against the 
of his table neighbour in the big blind. The 
board gave Samson the superior hand as the field was reduced by one contender.

Paddington Felted by Pinto
Level 6
: 300/600, 600 ante
In multi-way action to the 
turn, Colin Paddington in the big blind grabbed into his stack and wanted to bet 2,800 into a pot of around 8,000. However, he seemingly verbally announced 28,000 for almost all of his chips and the floor was called. The verbal declaration stood and the bet was in. Ricardo Pinto in the cutoff then jammed and it folded back to Paddington who called it off.
Colin Paddington: 
Ricardo Pinto: 
The river sent Paddington to the rail as Pinto further increased his big stack.

Hayward Felted by Lehr
Level 6
: 300/600, 600 ante
In a battle cutoff versus big blind, Luke Hayward fired three barrels with the board reading when the Brit moved all-in for the last 12,000. Keith Lehr had checked and called after short consideration. "I guess you have a ten?" Hayward said and that's what Lehr indeed showed with the 
, which beat the 
of Hayward.
He wished everyone good luck on the way out and then added "and good luck to you sir, use the chips wisely."
