Level 20 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Daniel Jackson open raised to 30,000 from middle position and action folded to Sam Grafton in the big blind, who made the call for most of his stack.

The flop came K♣8♠5♦. Grafton checked and Jackson pushed a stack of blues into the middle worth the rest of Grafton's stack. Grafton didn't look happy about the situation but found himself priced in for the call, which he made. Players flipped their cards.

Sam Grafton: 9♠2♥
Daniel Jackson: J♠J♥

Grafton was not in great shape against Jackson's pocket jacks. The turn came the A♠ and the river was the K♥. Jackson held with his pocket jacks.

Grafton was eliminated from the tournament in 11th place for £5,220.

Level 20 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Action was on the turn on a board of Q♣9♠10♠A♦ when Teodor Evstratiev got his chips in the middle against Fraser Bellamy, who had slightly more behind.

The river came the K♦. Bellamy had two pair but Evstratiev had a straight to win the pot and leave Bellamy with very few chips left.

Fraser Bellamy: J♥J♣
Jacob Mulhern: K♥Q♦

The board ran out 4♥8♣7♥2♦J♠.

"They can't kill me!", bravely declared Bellamy as the board was still running out. He hit a set of jacks on the river to further improve his hand and win the pot.
