Doubl

Andrew Robl just doubled himself off chip life-support, finding an ever-so-slightly better Ace than Daniel Negreanu in his {A-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds} (Negreanu held {A-Spades} {7-Hearts}). No spike or funny straight/flush business on the board and Robl has 139,000 again, to Negreanu's 341,000.

Wilf Chastises Self

Saar Wilf
Saar Wilf

He begged, "Please don't win with nine high!" as he checked behind on the river of a {J-Clubs} {J-Spades} {6-Diamonds} {8-Clubs} {10-Hearts} board after having raised the turn (from 13k to 35k on the button). Feldman showed {K-Clubs} {9-Clubs} which was indeed good and Saar Wilf mucked muttering, "So bad, so bad.."

Their stacks remain pretty much even, though, as the 2k/4k level comes to an end.

Kabrhel & Conquer

A bang on the table and Jim "Mr_ BigQueso" Collopy standing in a curiously Napoleonic pose alerted us to the fact that Martin Kabrhel was all in.

Kabrhel: {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}
Collopy: {a-Spades}{10-Spades}

Board: {9-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{j-Hearts}

Emperor BigQueso could not conquer his Czech tablemate, and Kabrhel doubled to 330,000 and the chip lead.

Seeds of Change

Huck Seed
Huck Seed

Howard Lederer led out 20,000 on the turn of the {3-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{6-Hearts} board, and Huck Seed paused for a few moments before sleepily going all in. Lederer, appearing rather more awake, snap-called.

Lederer: {a-Clubs}{k-Spades} for a pair of kings
Seed: {3-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} for a set

River: an academic {5-Clubs}

Seed doubled up - although with 165,000 to Lederer's 285,000, he's still the table shortie.

Channing Doubles With 'Sick Move'

This hand was already a big one before the all-in shove on the river as a club fell completing the board's broadway with a bonus: {A-Diamonds} {Q-Clubs} {K-Spades} {J-Clubs} {10-Clubs}. 120k in there and 122k in Neil Channing's stack - in it went, prompting McLean Karr to wince a little, saying, "That's a sick move!"

He did eventually make the call, but Channing said, "I have it. Nut flush." He showed {A-Clubs} {6-Clubs} and Karr paid the man his money, saying, "I flopped it!" ruefully.

Ivey Hits the Rail (With £22,846)

Phil Ivey
Phil Ivey

A possibly disappointing, and rather abrupt end to Phil Ivey's tournament - Gus Hansen progressing through to the third round after a sequence of preflop raises as quick as a hummingbird's wing-beats. Button Ivey found {6-Spades} {6-Diamonds}, big blind Hansen {J-Spades} {J-Clubs} and in three raises it was on-their-backs time. The board came a definitive {7-Diamonds} {J-Hearts} {9-Hearts} {2-Hearts} {10-Diamonds} which brought a murmured, "Been a pleasure," from Ivey as he went to collect his prize money.

Hansen Commits Trey-son

With around 75,000 in the pot by the {4-Spades}{10-Spades}{5-Hearts} flop, Phil Ivey checked, prompting another age-long tank from Gus Hansen. Eventually he went all in. Ivey called in an instant.

Ivey: {q-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}
Hansen: {3-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}

Turn: {3-Spades}

River: {k-Clubs}

That rarest of things graced Ivey's face as Hansen turned a set - a twinge of emotion. Pulling faces didn't help him though, and Hansen doubled up to 315,000.
