. Lewis caught an ace to send Spinks home in 204th place.
Pieter De Korver has been eliminated and it has cost him more than his stack.
De Korver pushed his last 26,500 into the middle with 
and was called by a player with 
. The board ran out 
busting the Dutchman from the tournament.
Not only is De Korver out of ISPT Wembley but he also lost his sunglasses thanks to his elimination meaning he lost a "last longer" bet with Gerald Karlic!

Ben Middleton opened to 8,000 preflop and was called in one spot before Rhys Jones raised to 26,000 from middle position and a short stack moved all in for 28,000. Middleton then four-bet to 64,000, surprisingly the player in middle position made the call and Jones called as well.
The flop was 
and Middleton bet 54,000. The player in middle position made the call and Jones min-raised to 108,000. Middleton moved all in. Middle position folded and Jones called.
Short stack: 
Jones: 
Middleton: 
The turn was the 
giving Jones some additional outs but the 
river changed nothing and Middleton won the biggest pot of the tournament.
"Oh well," said Jones afterwards, once he'd recovered from losing the pot, "off to Vegas!"

Dave “The Devilfish” Ulliott just doesn’t stop talking at the table. He’s already upset the new dealer, mistaking her for French and refusing to put his antes in. “Just take it from my stack darling. Don’t be shy. I’ve never known a woman to refuse money.” He said. She remained uncharmed.
Faced with a raise from early position of 8,500 Devilfish called from the small blind.
The flop was 
“How much you got son?” Devilfish asked his opponent and found out that it was 64,000. “Ok check.” His opponent checked behind and the turn was dealt a 
Devilfish fired out a bet of 10,000 and was called.
A 
on the river completed the board, Devilfish checked and his opponent pushed the rest of his chips over the line. 54,000 was the bet.
Devilfish started talking it through. “Wow. Bad card for me that. I could have done with a nine there really. You can’t have a nine, can you? You raised under the gun. Would you do that with ace nine? OK I call.”
His opponent nodded, he had to be beat.

We heard the voice of Dave "Devilfish" Ulliott call a waitress over saying something about he wanted to complain about some food he'd ordered.
"Here, love." beckoned Devilfish in his Hull accent, "I've just eaten some chicken I bought here and I think it still had feathers on it!"
"Really?" said the seemingly puzzled waitress.
At this point, Devilfish put his hands over his mouth and started to cough. As he did so, hundreds of small pieces of paper flew out of his hands with each cough and fell to the floor.
Devilfish, obviously bored with how his tournament is progressing, had torn up a sheet of paper so that it looked like feathers (to him at least) and played a practical joke. We wonder what is next from this comedy genius.
Sam Trickett and Nick Hicks are good friends but that has not prevented them from clashing with each other during Day 3 of the ISPT Wembley Main Event.
The action folded to Hicks in the small blind and he raised to 10,000. Trickett, seated in the big blind, called. Hicks then checked the 
flop and folded when Trickett bet 13,500.
Our Dutch readers will not be happy to read that Pieter De Korver is struggling right now and only has 51,000 chips.
The former EPT Grand Final winner open-shoved for just 35,000 from late position and when the active players moved out the way De Korver added the ever-growing blinds and antes to his miniscule stack.

Facing a 9,000 raise from under the gun, Jon Spinks checked his hole cards and decided they were strong enough to put his tournament life on the line with. When the action passed to Rinaldo Aquino in the big blind it looked like Spinks was going to be called, but Aquino and the original raiser both folded.

Marcel Luske is the latest big name to fall. He went out with 
to the British-based American Tom Kugelstadt's in a 120,000 chip pot when the board came 
to backdoor Kugelstadt a flush.
