Pedley Doubles Through Dunst

In a hand that had many onlookers shaking their heads, Tony Dunst went head-to-head against Michael Pedley in a pre-flop all in confrontation that saw Pedley table a pocket pair of jacks against Dunst's {Q-Spades}{3-Spades}, with each player committing almost 70,000 worth of chips to the pot.

The board ran out {3-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} and Pedley's jacks would hold up to win the hand, giving him 134,000 in new chips. Dunst dropped back down to 120,000 after the hand.

Wroblewski Stays Alive

Anna Wroblewski has been hitting cards at all the right times throughout this event, and she's just done it once more in a hand against Dane Lomas.

The players got it all in pre-flop, Anna with {K-Hearts}{4-Clubs} and Lomas with {A-Diamonds}{6-Spades}.

The flop came {A-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{2-Hearts} giving Lomas top pair, but it also gave Anna a gut-shot straight draw which she would hit on the river with the {5-Spades}.

Anna jumped back to 37,000 in chips with the win. "Staying alive!" she said after the hand.

Wroblewski Doubles Through Dunst

Just one hand after handing almost a third of her stack over to Julian Powell, Anna Wroblewski got it all back and then some from Tony "Bond18" Dunst.

The players got it all in pre-flop and Anna looked the clear favorite to double up:

Wroblewski: {A-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}
Dunst: {A-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}

The {7-Spades}{5-Hearts}{6-Clubs} flop put an interesting twist on things, however, as it gave Tony a pair and Anna an open-ended straight draw.

"What a flop!" said tournament director Mike Tarr.

The {K-Hearts} on the turn left Anna dead to eleven outs with one card to come and luckily for her, the {8-Spades} that fell on the river was one of them.

Anna stacked up right around 37,000 in chips with the win, while Dunst dropped to approximately 100,000.
