A big pot was sparked by the initial raise to 13,000 (blinds still 3,000/6,000) from Ross Ellis (UTG+1) out of a slightly-under-average stack, three-bet by neighbour Brian Kiely to 34,000. Over to the blinds, both of whom were still interested: small blind Stephane Perche sat back with his arms crossed for a short while before folding, while big blind Jamie Brent moved all in for 61,000.

Ellis folded to the four-bet, while Kiely, understandably, made a quick call.

Kiely: As Ah
Brent: Ac Qs

The board ran out 6s Ks 3d 9s Jc, and so did Brent’s luck. Kiely now plays 210,000.
