The tournament director has announced that five more hands will be played today.
Henry Strudwick had got his stack into the middle and was at risk against Josh Jones.
Henry Strudwick:
Josh Jones:
Board:
Strudwick was in bad shape preflop but came front behind when he spiked a four on the flop. The turn and river cards were no help to Jones, and he was left with just 600,000 as Strudwick doubled to 2.4m.
Jones was unable to find a double of his own and exited the Open Day 1b just a couple of hands later when he ran king-jack into ace-jack and found no help from the board.

The board was down , and with around 500,000 in the pot, Jonty Willis bet 185,000 from the big blind. He was heads-up against the player in the cutoff who called Wills' bet and saw a
river. Willis quickly checked, and his opponent bet 450,000.
Willis smiled as he contemplated what to do and after 30 seconds he threw the chips into the middle to call. His opponent seemed to concede the pot by not revealing his hand and once Willis had flipped over for two pair his opponent mucked and Willis moved up to 3.1m chips.
