Hand #12 - Fuad Serhan Doubles Through Yevgeniy Timoshenko

Adam Junglen has the button in Seat 9. Yevgeniy Timoshenko opens for 25,000 from UTG and the action is folded to Fuad Serhan in the small blind, who calls. Daniel Nutt calls as well from the big blind. The flop is {Q-Diamonds} {10-Spades} {8-Hearts}. Serhan moves all in for 47,000, Nutt folds and Timoshenko calls.

Serhan {10-Hearts} {10-Diamonds}

Timoshenko {9-Hearts} {9-Clubs}

Serhan flopped a set of tens and the {10-Clubs} on the turn made him quads and left Timoshenko drawing dead. The river was the meaningless {A-Hearts} and Serhan more than doubled up to 175,000.

Hand #11 - Adam Junglen

The table folds round to Adam Junglen who makes a "large raise" from the small blind, basically putting big blind Fuad Serhan all in if he wishes to continue with the hand. Serhan makes the fold.

Hand #10 - Adam Junglen

Linda Lee has the button in Seat 7. Neil Channing completes the small blind and Adam Junglen checks his option. The flop is {4-Spades} {4-Hearts} {3-Hearts}. Channing checks, Junglen bets 14,000 and Channing gives it up.

Tales From the Rail

We are being treated to a star-studded rail today. Representing the British contingent are circuit pros and fellow Midlanders Marc 'MrCool' Goodwin, Paul 'Actionjack' Jackson and Mickey 'The Worm' Wernick, but the biggest name keeping his eyes peeled on the action is the Legend himself, Doyle Brunson. It looks like he's come to support Linda Lee, although I have a sneaking suspicion that he's really here to watch the PokerNews blogging team in action.

Hand #7 - John Dwyer

Plays folds round to John Dwyer on the button who, with big blind Jesper Hougaard staring his down intently, decides to move all in. A quick check of their cards, however, and both blinds fold allowing Dwyer to pick up his second pot of the day.

Hand #6 - John Dwyer

Yevgeniy Timoshenko has the button in Seat 3. He raises to 25,000, John Dwyer reraises to 90,000 from the small blind, and Timoshenko gives it up, conceding the pot to Dwyer.

Hand #5 - Jesper Hougaard

Play grinds to a halt on Jesper Hougaard who open shoves all-in. He claims that he wants to echo Adam Junglen's bet, but is sadly unable to do so. Nevertheless, he takes the pot uncontested when both blinds fold.
