Paul Phillips has just bought into the £150 after he exited in some interesting circumstances. Firstly, he re-shoved over the top of Adam Lawler's all-in preflop with A-8 and was happy to see Adam flip Q-10. The flop was J-7-8, which only increased Adam's outs, as he had 3 queens, 3 tens and 4 nines to hit. The dealer then settled the contest when he dealt the 9 turn, which left Paul drawing dead and down to a single ante.
Paul and Adam all in with Andrew Mosdell tanking. Andrew eventually passed.

On the very next hand, Paul was all in blind on the button. Gemal Husnu raised to 5300 preflop only to find Matt Russell 3-betting him to 13.2k. Gemal tank-folded, only to find Matt cheekily flipping 7-3 off, realising that a 3-bet with an all in player would look really strong and stealing the blinds as well as Gemal's extra 5300, at a cost of his 300 ante. Paul flipped J-10 and it held on the 8-2-5-9-9 board.
Paul then sat there for a couple of hands, waiting for an unopened pot to shove into. He eventually did, with 8-5, only to find Andrew Mosdell reshoving right behind him with Q-Q. No miracles on the 2-3-A-9-10 board and Paul headed straight for the cash desk to buy into the £150 as Andrew raked in the pot, with a wry comment from Thomas Dunwoodie, who claimed to have passed pocket 3's to Andrew's re-shove.
