Peter - 44k
Andrew - 42k
Andrew got 99, which was an overpair to a baby flop. The turn gave him a flush draw and the river was obliged. That was handy as the other lad had QQ. He wasn't too happy about it, but Andrew was due a rub of the green after the AA and KK from earlier on.
Peter is just loving the Feature Table. Lights are hot but the table is well under control. Couple of aggro players on there but he's swerving them and picking up chips from the others. He's making it sound like such an easy game....

Here's a really interesting lady called Gillian Epp. What does she do? She plays live high stakes cash games, and actually licks her chops when the WSOP rolls in to town...

He used to be a hairdresser too, don't you know...
Mel Judah - Interview with Sky Poker
He opened the betting to 800 from the cut off and was called by the button and big blind.
Flop Qh-Ts-8h.
Checked to Peter, who bets 1700 and is called by the button. BB folds.
Turn is a nasty looking 9s, but that doesn't stop Peter from betting out 3700. He's raised to 9000 and quickly calls.
The river is a non-heart brick. Peter check-folds to a bet of 15k from the button.
He did have a big dwell up on it, so I'd be surprised if it was just a one pair kind of hand he's folded. Felt more like a set to me, possibly T-T. We'll try and find out on the next break for you in an hour or so.
Andrew is still comfortable, having dropped around 2k to 40k. No major worries on his table though, and from what I can tell it seems to be playing okay for him.
Andrew1947 - 42k
Kimpet - 44k
I level remains today. No accidents, please!
Peter has been moved off the feature table (which was broken at the start of Level 5), so is now in amongst the masses. He was down to about 30k or so but is now moving back gently towards 42k.
Andrew has gone into hibernation. 40k is my guesstimate, and I think he's locked down for the night now.
Might we get someone to Day 2?
Peter has doubled up to 80k, knocking somone else out along the way. Wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii.
Come on Andrew, your turn to stick it in their eye!
Love Sue
He closed the day on around 70k or so and had the time of his life today. There's an end of day video coming up from Claire and Tikay where we speak to the Day Two Two. Tomorrow it's the turn of the pro: Julian Thew is going to be let loose. Can we make it three players in the second day of play? Fingers crossed.
Tonight it's all about Andrew and Peter. Good work lads... we needed that one.
COME ON YOU BLUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUES!
P.S - My closing thought for the day: this is NOT how you wear headphones.
The end of play interview with our two intrepid heroes.
Well done them!
