Day 4 Started

Welcome to Day 4 of the 2014 partypoker World Poker Tour event in Nottingham!

WPT Nottingham
WPT Nottingham

On the penultimate day of WPT Nottingham just 16 players remain led by former WSOP Main Event finalist Antoine Saout who is top of the pack with 2,317,000. Every single player left is guaranteed a minimum payout of £10,200 but make it to the final table and that will increase to £39,500. The seat draw (which will be posted shortly) should raise some eyebrows, five of the top six stacks are all on the same table.

Saout busted Fraser Macintyre in the last hand of Day 3 with just over 13 minutes left of level 20 (5,000/10,000/1,000) remaining. Today the tournament will be playing down to the final six, no matter how long it takes. With the average stack over 66 big blinds, it means that this could take a while but the £200,000 first prize will keep everyone concentrating.

Levels will once again be 90 minutes long today before switching to 60 minutes for tomorrow's final. Play is scheduled to begin at 1pm and you can follow all the action here on PokerNews!

Saout Increases His Lead

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Ben Vinson opened to 22,000 from middle position, Antoine Saout called on the button and Nejib Kamand called in the big blind.

The flop was {3-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} and it was checked to Vinson who bet 38,000. Saout made the call and Kamand folded. The {6-Hearts} on the turn saw Vinson bet 92,000 this time but again the Frenchman made the call.

Vinson checked the {7-Diamonds} river and Saout quickly checked behind him.

"King-high," said Vinson, tabling {K-Hearts}{J-Clubs}.

Saout turned over {Q-Hearts}{10-Hearts} and picked up the pot.

Vinson's Bluff Fails

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Ben Warrington opened to 27,000 and was called by Ben Vinson on the button and Matas Cimbolas in the big blind.

The {7-Spades}{6-Hearts}{5-Hearts} flop was checked to Vinson who bet 38,000, Cimbolas and Warrington both called to see the {8-Hearts} on the turn. Again it was checked to Vinson who bet 92,000. Cimbolas folded but Warrington called again and the {10-Hearts} came on the river.

Warrington checked a final time and Vinson bet 92,000 once again. Warrington made the call and Vinson was forced to show {3-}{3-}, Warrington picked up the pot with {J-Hearts}{9-Hearts}.

Penalty

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Stefano Garbarino just received a two-hand penalty after he folded his hand out of turn. Not something you want happening when you're the shortest stack in the tournament.
