Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Trevor Pearson opened the hijack and James Bott shoved for around 13,000 from the small blind. Pearson called.

James Bott: K♣J♦ All in
Trevor Pearson: A♠Q♣

Bott needed to connect with the board to keep himself in contention, however the runout stayed below the paint that he needed coming 7♠5♠10♣10♦7♦, which meant Pearson's ace-high remained in the lead.

"It's easy when you keep winning," said Pearson as Bott made his way to the exit.

Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

On a board of 10♣J♥4♦7♣, there were around 25,000 chips in the middle when Alex Romero checked it over to Raefe Tucker, who made a small bet. Romero then shoved, and Tucker called off his stack of just over 20,000.

Raefe Tucker: A♣K♠ All in
Alex Romero: K♥Q♦

Tucker had made the right call and just needed to dodge an ace or a nine on the river to double up. However, the poker gods were, at least for now, on Romero's side as the A♠ river completed his straight, which sent Tucker to the rail.

Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Danish Gandhi raised to 2,000 from the cutoff and got called by Sam Netzer on the button and Arian Kashani in the small blind.

They went to a flop of Q♣7♦4♦ where Kashani checked and Gandhi continued for 2,600. Netzer made the call, and Kashani got out of the way.

On the 10♥ turn, Gandhi didn't slow down and fired a bet of 4,500, which again Netzer called to see a 4♥ fall on the river. Gandhi did what he had done on every street so far, and reached for chips before he dropped 7,500 into the pot. Netzer counted out his remaining stack and then rechecked his cards before he opted to fold.

Danish Gandhi	90,000 90,000	90,000

Level 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Craig Heaton shoved from early position for around 13,000 and George Edward Holmes also committed his stack of around 14,000 from the hijack. Danish Gandhi was in the small blind and called, which put two players at risk.

Craig Heaton: A♥Q♠ All in
George Edward Holmes: A♠K♣ All in
Danish Gandhi: 10♥10♦

Gandhi found a good flop of 9♦J♥8♦, which improved him to an open-ended straight draw. Heaton picked up a gutshot, but two of his outs were already in Gandhi's hand.

A 3♣ on the turn was a brick, as was the J♠ river, which meant Gandhi sent two players packing in the same hand.

Level 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

With around 14,000 chips in the pot on a board of 8♠4♦10♣K♦, both James Bott and Alex Romero checked to see a 10♥ pair the board on the river. Bott reached for chips and fired 6,500, and after some deliberation, Romero called.

Bott nodded his head to his opponent as if to say 'you got it', then mucked. Romero didn't need to show and collected the pot without revealing his cards.

Gascoigne Sent Packing by Packer, Spragg Stacks Bott

Level 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

The action folded around to Ian Gascoigne on the button who shoved for a little over 15,000. Leslie Packer looked down at his cards in the big blind and liked what he saw, then called.

"Have you got aces?" asked Gascoigne.

Ian Gascoigne: K♠Q♠ All in
Leslie Packer: A♣A♥

"How does that happen? You just have aces in the big blind," continued Gascoigne.

The flop of 8♥9♠4♣ didn't change much, but the A♠ gave Gascoigne a flush draw while also improving Packer to top set. However, it wasn't to be for Gascoigne as the J♥ river meant he was eliminated.

On the table adjacent, James Bott shoved the last of his stack into the middle with pocket queens and was called by the pocket kings of Dan Spragg.

The runout changed nothing, and Bott was eliminated as Spragg's stack climbed to around 70,000.

Moroney's Kicker Plays to Double Through Keshav

Kai Cocklin

Level 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Ricky Keshav made it 2,500 from middle position and Martin Donoghue called on the button before Ian Moroney shoved for 10,000 from the big blind. Keshav called, but Donoghue folded.

Ian Moroney: A♣J♦ All in
Ricky Keshav: A♦3♦

Keshav was behind and couldn't catch up as the board of 7♥9♥Q♥9♣6♦ kept the ace-jack of Moroney in the lead, which earned him a double-up.
