With around 300,000 chips already in the pot on a flop of 10♣4♣7♦, Philip Joyce and Mitchell Johnson checked, then Jean-Emmanuel Lhuillier fired 90,000. Joyce made it 265,000, Johnson folded, and Lhuillier called.
They saw the A♥ drop on the turn where Joyce checked, Lhuillier bet 80,000, and Joyce called.
When the 3♦ landed on the river, Joyce checked it over again, and Lhuillier made a bet of 180,000. After thinking for a while, Joyce shoved, which gave Lhuillier a decision for his remaining 1,150,000 he had behind.
After around four minutes of tanking, there was still no decision from Lhuillier, so the floor were called to initiate a countdown. With just a single second remaining in the count, Lhuillier put his chips in.
Joyce then showed 7♣6♥ for a pair of sevens, but Lhuillier had the winner after he paired his ace with A♣5♣.
Daniel Livens opened thebutton to 90,000 and Yannik Seabrook shoved from the small blind for 860,000. Once the big blind folded, Livens was in the tank for quite some time before he eventually tossed in the call with a stack of around 1,500,000.
Yannik Seabrook: K♠Q♣
Daniel Livens: A♣7♣
"Nice call," could be heard from the table, directed at Livens.
Seabrook didn't catch any of the J♣2♠8♥ flop, but drilled a pair on the K♦ turn to take the lead. Only an ace on the river would liven up Livens, but the 5♠ wasn't what he needed, and Seabrook doubled up.
There were around 500,000 chips in the middle on a board of 7♥3♣9♥ when Stephen Ayres checked and Daniel Rudd fired a small bet of 100,000. Ayres was in the tank for quite some time before the clock was called and Ayres was put on a countdown, but he was sure that nobody had called the clock.
"Nobody called it, tell me who called it." asked Ayres to the floor staff, who refused to tell him who called the clock, just that the countdown had started. Ayres then furiously mucked his cards and the pot was pushed in Rudd's direction.
"I know nobody called it, just tell me who called it," said Ayres again.
"I called it. You took one minute preflop and two minutes on the flop," said Nathan Slater. "It's nothing personal, we have a tournament to play,"
Jay Harwood raised the button to 80,000 and Roni Tal defended his big blind.
They went to a flop of 9♠4♣8♦ where Tal checked it over to Harwood, who then fired 110,000. Tal called.
A K♦ dropped on the turn and Tal checked again, then was faced with a bigger bet from Harwood of 220,000. After thinking for around a minute, Tal decided to let it go.
