Outhred Ousts Raghavan

After a player in the cutoff opened to 15,000, Alex Outhred moved all in from the small blind for 138,000. Ravi "govshark2" Raghavan called all in from the big blind and the original raiser folded.

Showdown
Outhred: {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}
Raghavan: {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}

The flop fell {k-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{5-Hearts} and Raghavan stood up to put his backpack on. He needed running clubs, queens or jack-ten to stay alive. The {6-Spades} on the turn fulfilled none of those needs and his knockout was official after the {j-Hearts} rivered.

Raghavan headed to the cage to pickup his winnings while Outhred is still alive with 230,000 chips.

Clark Doubles

Zachary Clark opened from early position and the action folded to a player on the button who moved all in. The blinds released, and Clark made the call.

Showdown
Clark: {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}
Mr. Button: {6-Spades}{6-Clubs}

The {9-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{k-Spades} flop pushed Clark into the lead, and he didn't relinquish it on the turn ({7-Clubs}) or the river ({k-Diamonds}).

After winning the race, Clark now sits with 165,000 chips.

Wright On

A player in middle position raised, Sammy Wright called and Simon Ravnsbaek moved all in. The initial aggressor folded, but Wright made the call for his tournament life, surprising his table by showing {K-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}. Ravnsbaek had {6-Clubs}{6-Spades}.

The {6-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{4-Spades} flop seemed as clinical as a Ghana strike, but the Poker Gods work in mysterious ways, and after a {J-Diamonds} turn, they duly popped a bone-crunching {3-Diamonds} river onto the felt to give Wright the king high flush.

Whilst Ravnsbaek slipped to 160,000, Wright doubled through to 110,000.

Floating Through Space

Kevin Odell appears to be the new chip leader after catching his opponent's fingers, toes, and any other body part for that matter, in the cookie jar. We joined the action on the river of an {A-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{A-Clubs} board, and Odell was facing a bet of 99,500 into a pot of around 200,000. Although he wasn't overly happy, he made the call with {K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}, only to be shown {8-Clubs}{7-Clubs} for all the air of the English countryside. As a result, Odell is floating through space with 600,000.

Forget Healing the Blind

Jorge Jesus moved all in blind for his last 58,500 from the cutoff and Will "The Thrill" Failla tank-called out of the small blind.

Showdown
Jesus: {8-Hearts}{7-Spades}
Failla: {5-Diamonds}{5-Spades}

It was the perfect scenario for Jesus, and the {q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{9-Spades} flop gave him four extra outs to a straight. Sure enough the {10-Spades} turned giving him that straight, and after the {q-Diamonds} bricked on the river Jesus doubled to 128,000 chips.

Failla, who started the day as one of chip leaders, is now in trouble with just 70,000 chips.

Ali-In

Ali Sarkeshik opened with {A-}{3-} and received one caller. He then pushed all in on a {9-}{10-}{J-} flop, only for his opponent to snap-call. In the end, it wasn't the best of situations for Sarkeshik, as his opponent flipped over {K-}{Q-} for the flopped nuts. No assistance on future streets and Sarkeshik was sent to the rail.

"It's only when someone new comes to the table," reported Sarkeshik in the aftermath. "I haven't played a hand for five levels. People who've seen would probably fold ace-queen. I only looked at one card."
