Hopkin Mounts Comeback After Huge Triple

Level 37 : Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante

After a previous hand that left him with slightly more than a big blind, Sean Hopkin found himself all in preflop against both jade Walker and Gareth Cresswell, who covered.

Sean Hopkin: {j-Clubs}{j-Spades}
Jade Walker: {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}
Gareth Cresswell: {5-Spades}{5-Hearts}

Although Walker was way in the lead, the flop of {q-Spades}{2-Hearts}{j-Hearts} gave Hopkin a set of jacks to take the lead. The runout of {q-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} secured his victory for a huge triple to bring him from the brink all the way back to 9,000,000.

Jeffrey Takes it Down on the River

Level 36 : Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante

David Roe opened to 1,600,000 in late position but was then three-bet by Kyle Jeffrey to 4,000,000.

After some thought, Roe made the call and the two players went to a flop of {5-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}.

Both players checked through to the turn {2-Hearts} and the action went check-check again.

On the river {2-Diamonds}. Roe checked once more, but then Jeffrey bet 3,650,000 and Roe folded to award Jeffrey the pot.

Cheslin Eliminates Jurca; Down to Two Tables

Level 36 : 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante
Alexandru Jurca
Alexandru Jurca

Luke Cheslin had the chance to bring the Goliath X Main Event to two tables with Alexandru Jurca all in for 6,000,000.

Alexandru Jurca: {a-Spades}{10-Clubs}
Luke Cheslin: {q-Spades}{q-Hearts}

There was a ten on the flop, but the {10-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{j-Clubs} only improved Cheslin to a straight and Jurca was eliminated.

Players are now redrawing around two tables. PokerNews tournament delays will now be on a 30-minute delay alongside the official Grosvenor stream.

Southern's Rise Continues

Level 36 : 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante
Stuart Southern
Stuart Southern

Having been down to as little as half a big blind, Stuart Southern has doubled yet again this time through Saied Yolmeh.

Southern shoved for 4,000,000 with {a-Hearts}{7-Clubs} and Yolmeh called with {a-Clubs}{4-Clubs}

The {a-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{7-Hearts} runout changed nothing and Southern's ascent continued, moving up to 9,000,000 in chips.
