The very last hand of the night goes to Dewi James, who finds ACES and talks Raymond O’Mahoney into calling his all-in preflop bet of 15k. “If I had AQ, I’d call!” says Dewi. Raymond calls holding pocket 66’s.

Main Event - Day 5 update
So play was called off for the night about 80 minutes early, with 109 players still dreaming.
Michael Dyer may be dreaming a little more vividly than others. Winning a huge hand against Cliff Josephy thanks to an ace on the river, and continued to chip up throughout the rest of the day. He now has over 12m chips, over 3m more than triple bracelet winner Brian Yoon and Jeffery Trudeau.
Chris Da Silva heads the British challenge in 18th place, with Thomas McDonald 35th, Daniel Tang 51st and Jonathon Prested barely hanging on in 106th.
Joe Cada is still there looking for a second ME win, but Ben Pollak is also looking for an impressive repeat - he finished third last year so he's looking to "do a Newhouse".
Shaun Deeb is currently 2nd in the player of the year standings, and the deeper he runs here the more nervous current leader John Hennigan will get (Joe Cada is currently 16th in the standings)
There is only one female player among the 109, Kelly Minkin, and she's going to have to get things going pretty quickly on Day 6 as she is in 103rd of the 109.
Event 68 - The Little One For One Drop, $1000 + $111 NLH, Day 1C, 4732 entries
After there starting days, and unlimited re-entries, we have just over 1000 players making the combined Day 2.
Domyo Agnelli of Italy holds the lead of a comspolitan top 10, with players from the US, India, Spain, Greece and Taiwan also there. (and Japan, Latvia, France, Singapore and Philippines inside the top 22).
Notice I didn't include the UK there, we have to go down to 50th for our leading player, Matthew Hunt. Others doing well include Paul vas Nunes, Andrew Hills, Michael Fletcher, Robert Heidorn, Raul Manzanares, Florian Duta, Jack O'Neill and Yiannis Liperis.
Event 69 - $3K PLO 6-handed, Day 2 of 3, 901 entries
I mentioned above the top 2 in the Player of the Year race, well in third spot is Scott Bohlman, and he is getting more points in this event as he leads the 24 survivors ahead of Blake Whittington and Romain Lewis.
There is one Irish player among the 24 (Dermot Blain who is the short stack) but no Brits, the last Brit standing was Max Silver who bowed out in 33rd for $11K
Event 70 - $3K Limit Hold'em 6-handed, Day 1 of 3, 221 entries
Showing just how unpopular limit hold'em is these days, this attracted less than a quarter of the field of the similar PLO event above.
We do have some British interest to cheer on here though as the chip leader is triple bracelet holder Benny Glaser.
Event 44 winner Nicholas Seiken is one of his nearest challengers as is limit specialist (FT in the $10K version two years ago) Anh Van Nguyen.
Some other names still in include Ben Yu and Barry Greenstein, and two more Englishmen Adam Owen and Ben Dobson.
To Start Today
Event 71 - $5K NLH (30 minute levels), 2 Day Event
Event 72 - $1500 NLH/PLO mix 8-handed, 3 Day Event

Main Event - Day 6 update
The usual plan on Day 6 is to play down to 27 players but with more in the field than usual at the start of the day, we'll see.
Players finishing from 100th-109th will collect $57K, but then the pay jumps every nine players with the next few payout levels as follows
91st-99th $66K
82nd-90th $77K
73rd-81st $91K
before we get to 6 figure pay slips from 72nd place upwards.
The first elimination of Day 6 was Hector Dominguez-Depaz after pocket queens got busted by Alexander Haro's 8-9 of clubs which rivered a flush.

Main Event - Day 6 update
108 Victor Pedote Dos Santos
107 Jason Maeroff
and we've also lost the first of the UK contingent, Jonathon Prested after his Aces were cracked by Volodymyr Drokin's Jacks which turned a straight. I think Prested finished 106th but there may have been other eliminations around the same time that may affect things by a place or two

Main Event - Day 6 update
Confirming Prested's 106th spot.
The next exit was an important one - Shaun Deeb eliminated by Alexander Ziskin. All very standard, all in pre-flop, Deeb 5-bet shoving with Queens, Ziskin calling with Kings and nothing on the board helped Deeb
105 Shaun Deeb
104 Sean Marshall
103 Cory Williams
102 Nicholas Cushman
101 Steven Adams
Exactly 100 left. Kelly Minkin had an early double up to give her some breathing space. Chris Da Silva lost half his stack but has since got some of them back.

Main Event - Day 6 update
Excitement growing as the field has now been reduced to less than 8 tables, but it's not great news for the UK
100 Michael Lavenburg
99 Chris Da Silva. And then there were two. Da Silva came up against Aces when he had AK and that was all she wrote. British challenge down to Thomas MacDonald and Daniel Teng.
98 Brayden Gazlay
97 Justin Harvell
96 Ognjen Sekularac (Serbia)
95 Ayman Qutami
94 Seth Foster
93 Jared Palmer
92 Alexandre Reard (France)
91 Philip Chun
Ladder to $77K
90 Barry Faecher
89 Jeremy Ansher
88 Vivek Rughani (India)
87 Alexander Gross
86 Jack Duong
85 Sharukh Shaw
84 Richard Robinson
83 Peter Nguyen
82 Aleksandr Shevelev (Russia)
Payjump to $91K
81 Alexander Ziskin
80 Vicent Bosca Roman (Spain)
79 Laurynas Levinskas (Lithuania)
78 Thomas MacDonald (GB). After losing a big hand to Teng in Brit-on-Brit action, Macdonald busted soon after when his Queens were always behind Andres Jeckeln's Aces
77 Paulino Uemura (Brazil)
76 Stefan Huber (Switzerland)
75 Jamie Flynn
74 Cole Miller (runs kings into Sylvain Loosli's aces)
73 Ahmed Amin
Another ladder to over $108K
72 Robert Fabre
71 Dan Wilson (last Irish player, lost to a one-outer on the river)
70 Mason Barrell
69 left. Day 5 chip leader Michael Dyer is still near the top, but he was first overtaken by Israel's Hari Bercovici and then by current chip leader Jorden Fox. Last Brit Daniel Tang is in about 15th at the moment, with Joe Cada not far behind.
Kelly Minkin has been very up and down, she's been all in and at risk at least twice but has managed to survive.
There is one other player with a Union Flag against his name in the listings, Volodymyr Drokin but I believe that is an error and he is from Ukraine.
Stop Press
69 Jordan Cristos. 68 left.

Play is very close to coming to an end after another long day. 27 players is the target and they're currently at 28.
Overnight eliminations (all USA unless stated)
$108K
67 Mario Mosbock (Austria)
66 Brent Ballentine
65 Michael Feil (Germany)
64 Krasomir Yankov (Bulgaria)
$129K
63 Michael Cordell
62 Jaime Kaplan
61 Roger Lussier
60 Shaun O'Donnell
59 Franklin Azevedo
58 Ryan Rivers (Canada)
57 Bas De Laat (Malta)
56 Volodymyr Drokin (now correctly shown as Ukraine)
55 Rifat Palevic (Sweden)
$156K
54 Ofir Mor
53 Mark Zullo
52 Mark Stockton
51 Mike Jukick
50 Kelly Minkin (last female player)
49 Chanracy Khan (Canada)
48 Artur Koren (Austria)
47 Ubaid Habib
46 James Obst (Australia)
$189K - prize jumps getting very chunky indeed now
45 Richard Pyne
44 Randall Lack
43 Kerry Bell
42 Ben Pollak (France, no back to back final tables)
41 Brian Yoon
40 Jan Mach (Czech Republic)
39 Shannon Storr
38 Henrik Hecklen (Denmark)
37 Ricardo Souza (Brazil)
$230K
36 Jason Gooch
35 Nghia Le
34 Nishant Sharma
33 Peter Campo
32 Andres Jeckeln (Argentina)
31 Daniel Tang (UK) So we don't have a John Hesp-like British run to the FT this year. Tang three-bet shoved from the button for his last 1.4m chips, original raiser Clayton Fletcher obliged him and unfortunately he had Tang dominated with A-10 against A-8 and there was no help on the board.
30 Samuel Bernabeu
29 Randy Lowery
Aram Zobian has assumed the chip lead with over 40m chips (nearest challenge Artem Metalidi has 28.8m) but the intriguing presence of Joe Cada remains. He may be in the bottom third of the field but still has nearly 50BB so a very playable stack for the former champion.
Edit - they played a couple more hands since I started this post, and we've lost not one but two players.
First Clayton Fletcher got his just desserts for knocking out the last British player when he was on the other end of a very similar coup, holding K-10 againt Yueqi Zhu's K-Q and not improving.
Almost simultaneously, Barry Hutter went all-in for his last few chips, TV played out the above hand on the feature table first, and them the cards were turned over, he had pocket threes but Alex Lynskey had the aces. Luckily for Mr Hutter, there was a three on the turn and he tripled up, but he is still the short stack of the whole field.
The action wasn't over though as former chip leader Jorden Fox got it all in on the turn, his pocket Jacks being an overpair to the board. Michael Dyer looked him up with two pair, and Fox couldn't make a set or a counterfeiting two pair on the river to send him home with a slip for $282K.
A further update with end of day chip stacks will follow later.

Main Event - Day 7 update
So enough of those who've been knocked out, what about the 26 players left in?
I mentioned above that Aram Zobian has over 40m chips, in fact 41.5m which is nearly 11m more than Artem Metalidi and 13m more than third placed Antoine Labat.
We've still got players from China (2), Netherlands, Brazil, Israel, Denmark, France (2), Argentina and Belgium still involved.
There are a few bracelet holders still in, Yueqi Zhu, Eric Froehlich (2 bracelets), Ivan Luca, Barry Hutter and of course Joe Cada. Sylvain Loosli isn't a bracelet holder, but has the experience of making the FT of the Main, five years ago.
Day 7 will play down to the final table of 9, and unlike last year, Day 8 will immediately follow (last year there was a 2-day break). There are still 10 minutes left of Level 31 (100K/200K with a 30K ante), last year the FT was reached duing Level 36.
Event 68 - The Little One For One Drop, $1000 + $111 NLH, Day 2 of 3, 4732 entries
125 players are in the running to win the "Droplet", with an interesting mix of names. Justin Liberto holds the lead with Aditya Sushant of India and Alexandru Papazian of Romania continuning the cosmpolitan nature of this event in second and third.
You have to scan through numerous nationalities before finding the first "GB" on the listing, that's attached to Paul Byrne, The second GB is listed next to Oleksii Kravchuk in error, but only 3 places further down we find Toby Lewis, with Michael Fletcher, Andrew Hills, Chun Yam and Luke Haward all there too.
Event 69 - $3K PLO 6-handed, Day 3 of 3, 901 entries
The bracelet for Event 69 is in the possession of Dutch player Ronald Keijzer, the fifth player from the Netherlands to win a WSOP bracelet.
It was an all-European heads-up match, as the second place went to Romain Lewis, while Player of the Year contender Scott Bohlman finished third.
Event 70 - $3K Limit Hold'em 6-handed, Day 1 of 3, 221 entries
After just two days, this event is down to just 8 players, with unusually two players sharing the overnight lead - Juha Helppi from Finland and Yaser Al-Keliddar fro the US, both having 927K chips, way way ahead of third placed Mike Schneider's 316K.
The only remaining bracelet holder is veteran Barry Greenstein who lies 5th of the 8 overnight, but with such a skewed set of stacks, anything can happen at the start of Day 3.
The only British player to cash was Benny Glaser who finished 14th for $6990.
Event 71 - $5K NLH (30 minute levels), Day 1 of 2, 452 entries
The $5K turbo paused overnight with 3 players who've at least made a FT during this series in the top 3 places. Jonathan Abdellatif was 4th in Event 54, Markus Gonsalves reached the FT of one of the online events, while Chance Kornuth won the high-roller online tournament.
39 remain, including Phil Hellmuth, Antoine Saout, Matt Glantz and three UK representatives, Liv Boeree, Paul Fontan and Chi Zhang.
Some other Brits who cashed include Robert Tinnion, Ben Dobson and Jack Salter.
Event 72 - $1500 NLH/PLO mix 8-handed, Day 1 of 3, 707 entries
A slower pace here, but still only 123 players have made Day 2.
The Day 1 leader is Jordan Polk, ahead of Peter Eichhardt and Ryan Leng.
There isn't a huge number of familiar names near the top of the listings, but former ME winner Joe Hachem is in touch as is Michael Mizrachi, and Jesse Sylvia, Daniel Negreanu and Eric Baldwin are a little further down.
We've got a little gaggle of British players headed by Jerome Bradpiece, and backed up by Samuel Welbourne, Arkadi Kilman, Shawn Morales, Marc Daubach and James Dempsey
To Start Today
Event 73 - $1000 Double Stack NLH, 30-minute levels, 2 Day Event
Event 74 - $10K Big Blind Antes NLH Championship, 3 Day Event
