"This is the level that'll sort the men out from the boys," suggested an astute Floppy, and I think he might be right, as it's gone double up crazy in here as we near the end of day.

Ash Hussain was one of the unfortunate victims, an A-J versus A-Q battle of the blinds confrontation with neighbour Haran Paheerathan seeing him drop to the paltry sum of 1,275. As Ash's change was returned to him following the ineffective 7-9-9-6-4 rainbow board, he fanned out his chips dejectedly in that familiar way that shortstackers do when they've just lost a big pot.

Adrian Chiles  (WBA Supporter and presenter of MOTD 2)

I think that might be the money shot.

Dan Carter knocked out Liverpool's and double GUKPT finalist Ian Nelson, it wasn't a big pot though - just the scrappy 25's & 100's which makes Carter's stack look like the table thief...


Vicky Coren is low again and ordering a glass a champagne to be brought sharpish incase SHE goes out sharpish.


Dave Colclough doubles up through a matey, on a board of

 three clubs   Dave pushed with and was called by .  Dave hit a diamond on the river to go up to about 45K.

Bluesquare have kindly offered the chip leader of each day a free seat in next year's final, and so with no one truly running away with it, several players will be keeping a keen eye on that Brucie bonus as the day draws to a close. One of those is 'naughty' Maz Nawab, who just took a nice pot of Ketu Nathwani. With Ketu calmly check-raising (4,025 to 15,000) on a two spades Flop, Maz mulled up his options before making it 40k to play. Ketu tapped the table and quickly mucked his hand leaving Maz with a great chance of grabbing that 3.5k seat.

Meanwhile, Neil Channing was complaining to management, saying that it's hard work for the players vying for that prize if they're not going to announce the chip leader's stack at any point. Does he have a point there?

Another double up involved Ken Wong, his chips heading in the direction of Surinder Sunar whose A-J rivered an Ace against Wong's 9-9 on an 8-K-4-T-A board. Wong still has around the 30k mark.

With just seconds remaining on the clock, play has virtually ground to a halt with all players eager to make it into day 2 and avoid that demoralising last minute exit.

I didn't spot too many hands, shortstack Manuel P pushed all-in and took the blinds uncontested, Stuart Fox's won a pot off Richard Herbert with a 4.2k bet on a 9-K-4 Flop and John Kabbaj won a 10k pot with just Ace high after it a 3h-8h-Td-4c-4d board was checked down with Dan Carter and Dan Samson.

Maz Nawab is the chip leader at the end of the day winning the £3,000 seat for next year. He has around 127k, pipping Stuart Fox who had 123k, literally a blind steals difference.

Anyway we're off to sleep. Play restarts at 1.30pm. See you there.
