Last year's finalist James Akenhead was spotted walking away from the table with a disappointed look on his face and no chips on the felt. Thanks to my years of watching Columbo, I'm pretty sure he's out.

Whilst Buchanan shoots up to 40,000, Devilfish is struggling again with 18,000 and wearing a frown that would make a bulldog look jovial.

Matthew Jarvis, who had been nursing a short stack for a while has been knocked out by Nikolay Evdakov. A push with 
and a swing and a miss against the Russian's 
.
Vadim Trincher limped in and Sam Trickett attacked with a raise to 1,000. Trincher made the call and the flop came down 
for another battle between these two players. Trincher check-called a bet of 1,100 from Trickett.
The turn brought the , completing a possible flush draw. Trincher opted to lead out and made it 3,000 to go. Trickett checked back at his hand and then tossed it into the muck, slipping below 100,000 now. Trincher now holds about 45,000.
Amidst some floor-calling over-the-line controversy: it was all about the river when the short-stacked David Benyamine apparently made a motion with his stack which was taken by Melanie Weisner to be a call of her river raise, so she turned her hand over. However he said it wasn't a call and he was still deciding. The rather mild confrontation had been going on for a couple of minutes by the time I got there but the board was 
, with the second Six having arrived on the river. The TD announced her hand (already known to be 
) was still live and it honestly looked close between the bet and Benyamine's entire stack. This was eventually determined to be the amount, and it was only then that he flipped . Up to 42,000 while Weisner drops to 15,000.
Andrew Teng was down around 8,500 chips when he got himself involved in a multiway pot.
Five, maybe six players paid 800 chips apiece to see a flop of 
. A player we don't recognize bet out 2,300, and Andrew Teng raised to 5,800. That folded the rest of the table, but the original bettor reraised the few chips required to put Teng to the all-in test. He called, though he didn't seem to confident about it.
Alas, though, he was well ahead as his 
had flopped a flush against his opponent's 
. That was a set of kings, though, and a improved him to kings full and left Teng drawing dead to the 
river.
Teng's Main Event is done.
From early position, Phil Ivey raised to 800. Andrew Scott and Marc Inizan called from middle position. The big blind also called. The four players then all witnessed a flop of 
put out on the felt by the dealer. Action checked to Scott and he fired 2,000. Inizan raised to 8,000 before the big blind folded along with Ivey. Scott then tanked before moving all in for 22,425. Inizan quickly called with the . His open-ended straight draw plus flush draw was up against the 
for Scott for bottom set.
The turn brought the and completed the flush for Inizan, but Scott could still improve to a full house on the river. The didn't make for any repeats on the board and Scott's chips were sent Inizan's way, who's now up to about 80,000.
