Stephen Chidwick has started as he means to go on, taking down a valuable pot of 339,000 after betting 95,000 on the river of a board reading [Jh4cQc6dJc].
Chidwick, holding [Ts9d8d2h], had nothing to help his hand but was able to manoeuvre Soverel off the hand, with the American flinging [Ad9s7s5c] into the muck, evening their stacks up considerably.

Just a reminder as play gets underway that we are on the bubble once again at the start of the final table. Six players may have made it this far, but only five of them will receive any money, with £24,000 up for grabs to whoever comes fifth today. Sixth place will leave with nothing.
Soverel raises in the second hand, popping it up to 80,000, getting folds all round.
