At the start of day, we imported all the chip counts to our chip count page.
Unfortunately, there's no way for us to keep all the chip counts up to date throughout the day, and players that bust might stay in there till we import the Day 3 counts at the end of the day.

Brit Kevin Davison has just called by the reporting desk to tell us about his bust out hand. Davison called a Daniel Chevalier raise holding and the flop came down . Both players had around 20k at the start of the hand.
Chevalier led out the flop and Davison called putting the Aussie pro on a pair. Davison spiked a set on the turn and Chevalier tanked before betting 3,600. Davison had roughly 13,600 behind and moved all-in and Chevalier called pretty quickly with for the turned straight.
The river did not pair the board and Davison headed for the exit while Chevalier climbed to over 40,000.
"What just happened?" we asked Rory Brown as he was stacking a lot of chips while the cutoff was seen leaving the tournament area with hanging shoulders and a look of confusion and chagrin on his face.
As we quickly wrote down the board and cards that were still out on the table while the delaer was pushing the chips to Brown, we got the story of what had happened.
The cutoff opened for 2,700 and Brown three-bet from the button to 9,000. Both blinds folded and the cutoff four-bet to 22,000. Brown called in position.
The flop came and the cutoff bet 15,000. Brown called once more and saw the come off on the turn. The cutoff checked and Brown pushed for about 45,000 or so. The cutoff called.
Cutoff:
Rory Brown:
Brown needed a jack and a jack only to bust his neighbor or he would be crippled. It turned out to be Brown's lucky day as the hit and the cutoff parted ways with all of his chips and Brown could start stacking.
An interesting hand played out between Anton Astapau and Rory Young, we arrived just as all the chips went in pre-flop but got a rundown of the action from Jeff Rossiter.
Sitting under the gun, Young min-raised to 2,400 and action folded around to Astapau. It is unclear whether Astapau had noticed Young’s raise as the two players were seated on opposite ends of the table, but Astapau announced a raise before putting in too few chips. This was ruled to be a min-raise and the dealer made Astapau put out a raise.
Young shoved and Astapau snap-called, tabling while Young had .
“Was that a mistake?” asked a clearly irked Young.
“Who knows?” retorted Astapau.
The flop came down giving Astapau top set which improved to a full house when the turn and river came down respectively.
Astapau had 40,700 at the start of that hand so doubled to 82,100 while Young was left on life support and dropped down to under 10,000.
This found its way into the middle shortly afterward when Young shoved with from the button and a tablemate in the big blind called with . The board ran out to end Young’s Main Event and he headed for the exit shaking his head.
Tino Lechich’s tournament is still alive after he found a double up through tablemate Sam Grafton.
Lechich and Grafton were in the small blind and big blind respectively and Lechich’s last 15,600 ended up in the middle to see him at risk.
Lechich:
Grafton:
Lechich fell behind on the flop which saw Grafton spike a pair, but Lechich then improved to a straight when the turn rolled off. Just needing to fade a heart the deck obliged when the river was produced to see Lechich survive.
The board was showing and the player in the hijack checked it over to Christian Christner who fired for 23,500. The bet was called and the arrived on the end.
The hijack checked his option again before Christner loaded up a hefty 58,000 and slid it into the middle. The bet was for more than half of Christner’s stack and sent his opponent into the tank.
The player in the hijack thought about the decision for several minutes, checking and rechecking his cards before ultimately tossing them into the muck.
Christner was awarded the pot and climbed to just shy of the 200,000-chip mark.
No context, no history, no character typification, no nothing. All we have for you is a board of and big blind Petros Aristidou checking.
On the button, Stefan Jedlicka bet 12,000 and after some time in the tank, Aristidou called. Jedlicka showed for not much of anything. Petros Aristidou took it down with just the .
Whatever had transpired before, that was a call by Aristidou that had some at the table in awe. He's up to 110,000, Jedlicka still has 96,000.
