Now slightly overtaken in chips, Daniel Smith is still well ahead of the field. He won a very chunky pot with
, flopping the wheel (two spades on board), but finding the
against him ready to commit the whole lot. Not the most comfortable turn and river to dodge, I'd imagine, but dodge it he did, rocketing him up over 26k pre dinner break.

Bedlam on Table Slade:
First Asheley Hayles doubles up (and a bit extra) to around 20k with A-J.
Raised 800 pre-flop, 2 callers, including Nik Slade with
.
Bet 2.5k on
Flop, Nik calls.
All-in on blank Turn, Nik calls.
No diamond or 5.
Then, just a few hands later, David McGreachie is forced down to the felt, losing a A-K vs Q-Q race on an unaiding 6-5-T-4-6 board.

RED-DOG has dropped to 9,200 after a preflop raise-off between him (the cutoff,
) and the loose, but chip-leading big blind. Tom made it 600 to go, the big blind made it 1,800, Tom re-raised by a further 4k, and then when the big blind moved in, he passed, to the Aces. Ah well, back to the starting chips.

Dan Smith is looking quietly confident, or at least showing the relaxation of one who has a lot of chips, and has the table convinced now that he's not afraid to use them. Just now he found
in the big blind, and a short stack had raised to 1,000 in late position. He quickly re-raised enough to put the short stack all in (around 5k) and got the call.
was the hand he was up against.
The board came
. "No one raise my big blind," said Dan. It sounded more like a statement than a warning. He's up over the 30k mark.

RED-DOG is out...
Dwindled to around 6k, he found
and raised to 1,200 after there had been two limpers. Both called. The flop came
, and when it was checked to him, the rest of the chips went in. Pass from one opponent, call from the other, whose
had spiked the set to knock Tom out on Day One. He doesn't look too unhappy, as the side events look pretty good.

Breaking news - Dan Smith doesn't just call or raise, he also passes sometimes - calling the small blind's raise on the big blind with
, he hit a
flop pretty well. He called a 2k bet here, but then when the
came on the turn, several different alarms went off when his opponent just moved all in quickly. One of them was right, and the one which put him in the worst shape - he was up against
and by passing here he lost just a chunk rather than more than half of his stack. On 25k now.
