Contrary to Hellmuthian Folds I'm not actually on my third costume change .. I'm actually on my second costume for the day.
ALSO how dare he compare me to Katy Perry ... Gaga has better costumes!!  Jokes aside, today was another long day, full of plenty of poker and lots of bad beat stories, sooo interesting! We've still got four people left in the Main Event and its reached boiling point.. Tomorrow evening we will have the official Team Betfair night out, watch this space for Hellmuthian Folds pulling out his 80's dance moves (youtube link to follow!) |

Erik Hellman goes out when he re-raises what looks like a steal with a shove with JT sooooted and is insta-called by the raiser with QQ.
The board offers no help so Erik leaves with 3135 euro in 42nd place. Sorry no photo of the hand!  [ This image is no longer available. ] |

Kim doubles up again....
He is in the BB with AJ, the SB shoves a much bigger stack and Kim calls and the SB shows K6. The flop is A25 rainbow and a blank turn and river see Kim with a 130K +, which is currently a very playable stack!  |

Chavdar exits in 32nd and receives 3507 euro.
He gets AT and calls a shove who has 66. The board brings no Aces or Tens and Chavdar is on his way back to Bulgaria. He played really well and I had high hopes of him carrying the big prize home for Betfair but it was not meant to be! Here he is with his very cute girlfriend who railed him loyally for the last three days. [ This image is no longer available. ] |

Two minutes later Kim exits in 30th and also picks up 3507 euro.
He bluffed away a load of chips in the previous hand with A5 and left himself with 40k. He has J6 in the BB and calls the shove from the button who turns over 99 The flop of QJT gives Kim hope and the J on the turn raises those higher but the killer blow of an 8 on the river gives his opponent the straight. He played the short stack very well at yeaterdays bubble and was quite happy with his cash as it was all he really expected going into today so short stacked. [ This image is no longer available. ] |

He has qualified for 3 events via Betfair poker. He cashed for $175k in the WSOP Cashed for $10k in St Kitts in the Carribean Poker Classic And now has cashed here. A pretty impressive record by anyones standards! [ This image is no longer available. ] |

By:
Nicholas just doubles up.
Shoves from the button with A2. The BB insta-calls with AT. The flop is A25, turn J and river 9. No wonder he cashes so much with that luck!  Sits on around 250k now!  |

We then went down to final two tables and Delicado Hernandez finished 18th winning 4516 euro.
He had the ill fortune to run AQ into AA and although the turn gave a straight draw and the River a flush draw he was left bereft with only 10k chips and went out next hand when he put it in with 93 and lost to T8 |
