Dexter Turnbull Eliminated in 12th Place (£7,120)

Level 24 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Dexter Turnbull
Dexter Turnbull

There was 180,000 in the pot on the {q-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{j-Hearts} board. Dexter Turnbull was in the hijack and Michael Howard was in the small blind.

Howard led 80,000 and Turnbull raised to 315,000. Howard just called.

The river was the {2-Diamonds} and Howard moved all in for 665,000. Turnbull made the call. Howard turned over {a-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} for the nut flush while Turnbull had {j-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} for a turned set.

The pot left Turnbull with only 30,000 chips and he was eliminated the very next hand as he went all in from under the gun where his {q-Hearts}{6-Hearts} lost to his opponents {a-Spades}{5-Clubs} on the {10-Hearts}{6-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{2-Clubs} board. The start of day chip leader left the tournament area having locked up just over £7,000.

Level 26 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Robbie Bull
Robbie Bull

Daniel Gormley raised to 100,000 on the cutoff before Robbie Bull moved all in for around 1,000,000. Gormley snap called.

Robbie Bull: {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}
Daniel Gormley: {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}

Bull was all in and at risk and well behind. The flop didn't give much hope as it came {k-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{j-Hearts}. Bull said "That'll do it" as he stood up. He was drawing dead on the {3-Clubs} turn and the river was the {2-Hearts} which ensured that he was eliminated in 11th place as he shook the hands of his fellow competitors.

Jack Hardcastle moved all in from under the gun for approximately 400,000. Jonathan McCann called on the button and the blinds folded.

Jack Hardcastle: {a-Clubs}{8-Clubs}
Jonathan McCann: {k-Spades}{q-Diamonds}

Hardcastle was ahead as the board read {10-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}, however the river of the {q-Hearts} sent Hardcastle to the rail as he was the last elimination of the day and the final table bubble boy.

Also eliminated late in the day was Robbie Bull as his pocket eights couldn't beat Daniel Gormley's pocket queens to be eliminated in 11th (£8,540). Start of Day 2 chip leader Dexter Turnbull was also eliminated late in the day in 12th (£7,120) as he turned a set of jacks, only for Michael Howard to river the nut flush to leave him with one big blind which he couldn't spin up.

PokerStars Team Pros Benjamin "Spraggy" Spragg and Mason Pye both came into the day short hoping to spin it up. However they were both eliminated early in the day.

The final table will commence from 12 p.m. local time on Sunday 31st July with 60-minute levels with the blinds starting at 40,000/80,000 with a 80,000 big blind ante.

Stay tuned to PokerNews as all the action will be covered until a new UKIPT Nottingham Main Event champion is crowned for the first time since 2015.
