The 2♦ turn saw a repeat of the action, this time Smith bet out 38,000.

Koon played in flow on the 2♥ river. Smith fired once more, this time for 165,000 and Koon eventually made the call. Smith tabled K♦8♦ for a flush, winning him this pot.

Level 1 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Last year's runner-up Artur Martirosian, took Seat 2 on Table 117, between Ben Heath and [Removed:554], where the latter opened from under the gun to 12,000.

Seth Davies, Henrik Hecklen and Ben Heath called from the cutoff and the blinds.

The A♥8♥10♠ flop checked through to the 3♣ turn. Hecklen led out for 31,000, folding out Heath and [Removed:555]. Davies opted to stick around.

Hecklen sized up to 85,000 on the 8♣ river and Davies promptly returned his cards to the dealer.

As the hand ended, Mikita Badziakouski joined the table, taking Talal Shakerchi's seat. The Englishman was moved to Table 117, where he finds himself in the middle of Dan Smith and Aleksejs Ponakovs.

Nick Petrangelo raised to 12,000 from under the gun, Masashi Oya called in the cutoff and Chris Brewer three-bet to 120,000 from the big blind. Petrangelo folded and Oya chose to back-raise, making it 270,000 to go. Brewer called.

The 7♥4♥J♠ flop saw Brewer check-call a sizable bet of 300,000 from Oya.

The 2♦ turn checked through to the A♣ on the river. Both players took their time to check to a showdown. Brewer tabled Q♦Q♠, while Oya won this pot as he showed A♥Q♥, having rivered a pair of aces.

Brewer, clearly frustrated by the outcome of the river, flipped his cards over to send them into the muck but did so with such force that one of his hole cards was sent right off the felt and onto the floor.

Brewer quickly apologized for his actions, remarking "I don't think I've ever beaten you in a hand, Oya."

Level 1 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Adrian Mateos opened to 12,000 from under the gun and was called by Dan Smith and Alex Kulev from the hijack and big blind.

Mateos continued for 12,000 on the A♣7♠9♥ flop and Smith was the only caller. Mateos then check-folded to a bet of 55,000 on the 10♠ turn.

As the hand played out, Alex Foxen joined the table, sitting between Nick Petrangelo and Kulev.

On the other table in the room, Isaac Haxton and Talal Shakerchi were battling heads-up.

With the K♣Q♣4♣J♦ board on show and around 120,000 in the pot, Haxton checked from the hijack before Shakerchi fired out 71,000. Haxton thought for a few moments and called.

The A♥ completed the board and Haxton checked again. Shakerchi sized up to 215,000, and Haxton quickly called.

Shakerchi tabled A♣5♣ for the flopped nut flush to take in the pot. As Shakerchi chipped up, Justin Bonomo took his seat.
