Hand #30 - John Dwyer

Fuad Serhan has the button in Seat 1. Action folds to Yevgeniy Timoshenko in the small blind, who calls. John Dwyer raises to 46,000 from the big blind, Timoshenko mucks and Dwyer wins the pot.

Hand #28 - Adam Junglen

Neil Channing has the button in Seat 8. Yevgeniy Timoshenko raises to 30,000 from UTG, Adam Junglen reraises to 105,000 from the small blind, Timoshenko folds and Junglen wins the pot.

Hand #26 - Linda Lee Doubles Through John Dwyer

Jesper Hougaard has the button in Seat 6. John Dwyer raises to 32,000, Linda Lee moves all in from the small blind for an additional 52,000 and Dwyer calls.

Lee {8-Spades} {8-Hearts}

Dwyer {J-Diamonds} {7-Diamonds}

The flop is {J-Diamonds} {8-Clubs} {6-Spades}, Lee hitting the set of eights. The {9-Hearts} on the turn opens up a straight draw for Dwyer, but the river is the {4-Clubs} and Lee gets a much-needed double up to 150,000.

Hand #25 - Ian Woodley Eliminated in 8th (£17,835)

"Can you come with me?"
"Can you come with me?"
Out of the blue, and as the announcer is momentarily distracted, we encounter yet another all-in and a call. This time the aggressor is Ian Woodley, the Charlton man pushing his stack of circa 70,000 across the line from the button. Without too much hesitation, Jesper Hougaard makes the call from the small blind, and we have a showdown.

Hougaard = {6-Spades}{6-Clubs}
Woodley = {A-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}

The {9-Hearts}{9-Spades}{7-Clubs} deals Woodley a few more outs, but he doesn't look confident, grimacing slightly as he sits back in his seat. And he was right to be negative, as the {6-Hearts} turn left him drawing dead, before the formality of the academic {4-Hearts} on the river.

Woodley leaves to a nice ripple of applause.

Hand #24 - Jesper Hougaard Doubles Through Adam Junglen

John Dwyer has the button in Seat 4. Adam Junglen raises to 33,000. The action is folded around to Jesper Hougaard in the big blind who moves all in for an additional 138,000. After surveying Hougaard's stack and giving him the once-over, Junglen calls.

Hougaard {A-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds}

Junglen {A-Spades} {9-Diamonds}

The flop is {Q-Clubs} {10-Clubs} {5-Spades}, Junglen still leading. The turn falls the {A-Hearts} pairing both players, but Hougaard's perfect card lands on the river, the {4-Hearts} , making him two pair and doubling him up.

Hand #21 - John Dwyer

John Dwyer raises it up to 35,000 from early position. Linda Lee takes a deep breath before fondling her remaining two columns. She opts for the pass, as does the rest of the table and Dwyer picks up the pot.
