A few tired faces starting to emerge as the final level draws to a close, including 16-year old David Jones who is normally in bed for Hollyoaks

Cristiano Blanco has been as snug as a bug in a rug today. The Italian journalist, now based in London ("I love everything about it apart from the weather!") is the chip leader and comfortably so at the moment.

On a board, he bets 8k and gets a called from James Mitchell on the button. Both players check the river and Cristiano turns over for the world-beater that is three-pair. Mitchell nods and mucks.

Bad beats are painful at the best of times, but when they come following two days of grinding, they can hurt like a sledgehammer to the groin. Sadly for Peter Semmens, it was he who felt metal on scrotum as he found himself in dominating shape with tens versus the pocket eights of Kevin O'Connell. But, of course, a third snowman arrived, and Semmens' hopes of returning for day two melted before him. Nevertheless, he took his defeat in fine spirits, and departed with a smile. 28 remain.

"I'm falling asleep," says Mark Wilson, and he's not the only one, many of the players looking like death warmed up as the clock makes its final ticks. Floppy actually scoured the remaining tables to see if anyone was awake, and reported back that not one person looked fresh or alert. This last level in general has been very arduous in some ways, hands more comparable to trundling through treacle with anvils attached to your feet than the frantic pace we witnessed at the start of the day. But it's to be expected, it's been a long, tough battle, and it's understandable if players need to take more time on their decisions to ensure they make the right one. A rash, and fatal move at this time in the day would cause any player to lose several hours of sleep.

A nice pot trickles Paul Gourlay's way. With the board reading , his leading bet of 6,000 was reraised by Liaquat Javed who added circa 15,000 more.

"Anyone else, and I fold this in an instant," said Gourlay shaking his head.

"I call," he announced out of the blue and chucking three purple chips into the pot.

Javed tapped his cards against the felt in submission, and a jubilant Gourlay took down the pot with .

"I didn't want to come back with a short-stack," added Gourlay. "What I would have had spare would have gone in on the next hand."

As it is, he triumphed in that last minute encounter, and will probably finish the day with around 80,000 in chips.

Raise from Mohammed Javed in late position and a flat-call from James Mitchell from the blinds.



Check from Mitchell, Javed bets 6k, Mitchell makes it 17k. Javed now makes it 37k and Mitchell quickly moves all-in for about 47k more. And after this flurry of activity Javed tanks.



And thinks for ages...



And ages...



At this point, Snoopy's suggestion of the 24 hour McDonalds is playing heavily on my mind...



I mean, Big Mac or Quarter Pounder with Cheese. It's a tough choice...



Eh? Oh, Mohammed Javed has called! After about 10 minutes...



Javed has Mitchell covered by about 2.5k and Mitchell shows for a flopped set. Javed turns over and he's gonna need runner runner here.. The on the turn seals it for Mitchell and the river gives him a house and a 200k pot. Javed is left with just a couple of thousand and leaves. I don't think he's coming back tomorrow...

But we will be!

Play restarts tomorrow with 28 players from 2pm.
