Marshall and Hill Eliminated by Yolmeh in Double Knockout

Level 36 : 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante
Saied Yolmeh
Saied Yolmeh

Neil Marshall moved all in from early position for 3,050,000 and James Hill moved all in for less for 1,400,000. Action was then on Saied Yolmeh, who asked for a count. After some back and forth with the dealer, he made the call, putting the other two at risk as the cards were tabled.

James Hill: {j-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}
Neil Marshall: {a-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}
Saied Yolmeh: {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}

"Wow was that a slow roll, mate?" Marshall questioned Yolmeh, which got some sounds of agreement from the onlookers.

"No no I didn't look at my cards until after the count," Yolmeh protested, but it seemed to fall on deaf ears.

The board ran out {6-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{k-Hearts} which meant Yolmeh held with his pocket queens, eliminating both Hill and Marshall.

Meanwhile, Stuart Southern, after been down to less than a big blind, had chipped back up to 3,000,000.

Roe Cracks Southern's Kings

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

Cards were on their backs with David Roe at risk holding {j-Spades}{j-Hearts} against the {k-Spades}{k-Spades} of Stuart Southern.

Roe was covered by just 300,000 chips, but spiked a jack on the {j-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{8-Spades} flop to move ahead. The turn {a-Diamonds} and river {7-Spades} changed nothing, leaving Southern with half a big blind.

Hill Doubles Through Marshall

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

Neil Marshall moved all in and after some hemming and hawing, James Hill Made the call, putting himself at risk.

James Hill: {6-Spades}{9-Spades}
Neil Marshall: {a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}

"Ok any six any nine, we got this," Hill said.

And just like that the board ran out {k-Spades}{6-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} to pair his six and give him the pot.

"The dream's alive boys!" he yelled. "Thanks for the double up, mate," he said to Marshall.

"My pleasure," Marshall replied dryly, which got some laughs from the table.

Cresswell Calls with King-High After River Ruling

Level 35 : 250,000/250,000, 500,000 ante

Luke Cheslin and Gareth Cresswell checked a board of {a-Spades}{9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{q-Clubs} with around 6,000,000 in the middle already.

Cheslin then announced "Five" before sliding 5,000,000 in the pot. The floor was called and the bet was ruled as just 500,000 as Cheslin did not put chips into the pot when announcing his bet.

Cresswell called. "You're good," said Cheslin. Cresswell motioned for Cheslin to turn over his cards, but he just mucked. Cresswell tabled {k-Spades}{5-Clubs} and took down the pot.
