Level 6
: 400/800, 100 ante
Level 6 is now confined to the history books and that means the surviving players — and hungry media members — are heading for some well-deserved sustenance. We'll all return at around 19:40 BST and play the final three levels of Day 1a.
Glimne Is Gone
Level 6
: 400/800, 100 ante
Dan Glimne has crashed out of the 2015 Unibet Open Glasgow Main Event.
Jens Eisner raised to 1,800 from the cutoff and Glimne called from the big blind. Glimne then led for 3,300 chips on the 
flop and then called off the rest of his stack when Eisner moved all-in. Eisner turned over 
, a much stronger hand than the 
in Glimne's hand.
The 
turn failed to alter the course of the hand and when the river came the 
, Glimne was gone.

Svendsen Stacks Another
Level 6
: 400/800, 100 ante
The action passed around to Katja Svendsen in the hijack and she raised it up to 1,700. The button called then Owen Robinson in the small blind jammed all-in for around 15,000 chips. Svendsen asked how much the all-in bet was for before moving all-in over the top. The button relinquished his hand leaving the 
of Svendsen to go up against the 
of Robinson.
The five community cards ran 
which were safe for Svendsen's kings and bust Robinson. Svendsen is now up to 165,000 chips and is running away with Day 1a proceedings.

Milne Shoves on Niemela
Level 6
: 400/800, 100 ante
Richard Milne opened the betting with a raise from under the gun and immediately faced a three-bet to 5,000 from Jussi Niemela four seats away. With the action back on him, Milne four-bet all-in for 20,300 in total and Niemela sat pondering all of his options before deciding to wait for a better spot to commit a large portion of his stack.
More Snaps!
Milne Claws in a Tasty Pot
Level 6
: 400/800, 100 ante
Alexander Koops raises to 1,800 from under the gun and found three callers. The first was Richard Milne two seats over and the others were Hans de Hond and Katja Svendsen in the small and big blind respectively.
The blinds checked to Koops on the 
flop and Koops bet 4,200. Milne paused for 10 seconds or so before raising all-in for 13,700 in total. de Hond sent his cards back to the dealer, as did Svendsen, but Koops had a tough decision to make and went into the tank to make it.
After almost a minute, Koops emerged with a fold and Milne boosted his stack to around the 24,000 mark.
Meanwhile, the aforementioned Svendsen has 142,000 chips in her stack and looks to be our chip leader as we head into the final level before the dinner break.

Kristiansen Uses the Poker of Position
Level 5
: 300/600, 100 ante
Hans Graham was first to act from the big blind on the 
flop and he watched on as Julian Lange bet 3,100 from middle position. Johnny Kristiansen, who is for some reason wearing a lampshade on his head, raised to 10,000. Graham instantly folded and Lange followed suit but not before much deliberation.
Wardlaw Wins One
Level 5
: 300/600, 100 ante
Many players automatically raise when the action folds to them on the button so a raise from this position is not always indicative of strength, so when Jens Eisner made it 1,525 to go from the button, it wasn't a surprise that Sam Wardlaw defended his small blind with a three-bet to 3,600. Eisner called and it was heads-up to the 
flop.
Wardlaw fired a continuation bet of 3,000 and just as we thought a big raise could have been coming in from Eisner, Eisner folded and left Wardlaw to collect the pot.
