19:17: Gordon Wood opens for 28k UTG+2. Janice McLean calls in position as does Keith Christie from the BB. Flop Qh 9s 3s. Gordon c-bets 35k. Janice folds. Keith makes the call. Turn Qc. Keith checks. Gordon bets 35k again. Keith makes it 70k. Gordon taps the table and folds showing a Nine. Keith shows nothing. By that I mean he shows neither of his cards not that he showed a bluff! He claims afterwards he had Q2.

19:16: Keith Christie opens for 24k UTG this time. Gets it through.

19:14: Keith Christie limps for 12k UTG+1, Janice McLean limps the button and the blinds complete. Flop Qc Jc 7s and it's checked around. Turn 3c. Keith takes it down with a 15k bet then shows the 3h.

19:13: Gordon Wood opens on the button when Rejus Zemaitis is forced to sit out his BB and takes it down.

19:11: Keith Christie limps in in the Hijack. Gordon Wood and Janice McLean complete in the blinds. Gordon leads the Qs 7d 4s flop and Keith calls. Gordon bets again on the 6d Turn which is called. Rived 5c and it goes check/check. Gordon rolls over 5d2d for a rivered pair and takes it.

19:09: Rejus Zemaitis given a 2-hand penalty but this time it's for folding out of turn. He will lose his BB on the second hand he misses.

19:08: Janice McLean opens for 30k UTG and gets it through.

19:07: On Table 1 Rejus Zemaitis opens for 36k and George Whyte shoves all in for 48k. Rejus calls with AA but........doesn't hold vs George's KQ when he flops Trip Kings.
