The Rich Get Richer!

Simon Watt
Simon Watt
Both chip leaders, Simon Watt and Jason Brown, have added to their stack to increase their advantage over the field after both taking out an opponent.

Brown's pocket queens survived against an opponent's {A-Spades}{10-Clubs}, while Simon Watt ended the run of local celebrity Joe Lonie. Watt made the call on the {9-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} flop with {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} after Lonie had pushed his {A-?}{Q-?}. The {j-Clubs} turn and {K-Diamonds} river, left with a mountain of chips.

Watt is up to 320,000 as Brown is now at 280,000.
