Cristiano Blanco raises to 20k UTG. Ints Grimbaums thinks about it but folds. Passed to John Eames who moves in for 77k. Back to the Italian who gets a count but then calls fairly sharpish.

Blanco:
Eames:

(Not really the best flop)......

John Eames is out in 9th place winning £3,534

Luke Marsh raised to 20,000 from early position and Ints Grinbaums called from late. Both players checked the flop before Luke Marsh check-called 30,000 on the turn. On the river, however, both players check it down, Grinbaums taking the pot with versus .

Nice uncontested pot for David Anderson. He pushed in after Billy Defty had raised to 20,000 and Ints Grinbaums called. Both players folded.



Anderson beginning to gather momentum.

Looks like it's been agreed to take off £9k off the top to evenly distribute amongst the bottom three places

[NoflopsHomer]

Luke Marsh looks to be taking the chip lead over, having recovered from that 4-bet that cost him most of his stack. He's won a fair few pots, the latest being on a A-4-4 board when the Latvian Grimbaums folded 2-2 to him and Marsh smiled as he raked in the chips.

The action folded round to Nick Hicks who made it a total of 16,000 from the small blind. David Anderson called in the big. On the , Hicks won with a bet of 16,000; Anderson showed an ace face up (rather than er... face down) to prove that he wasn't calling light.
