    5 advance from Day 1B

    2018/01/16 - 19:19 by Shawn McCrory

    The final table saw some roller coaster action, but two players ultimately came to the fore and bagged the majority of the chips in play. Francis Dery continued his strong, aggressive play and kept steadily building his stack. But it was Jason Mottershead who made the largest gains at the final table; he ran hot and had good timing to help run up the largest stack in the tournament so far. As play at the final table continued, the disparity between the chip leaders, Dery and Mottershead, and the rest of the field became larger and larger as the two biggest stacks showed no signs of slowing down.

    The bubble burst when Jean Guy Pare, who was down to less than 3 big blinds, found himself committed in the big blind. The action was opened by Joe-Elie Assio, who was holding Ace of Spades Ace of Clubs, and Pare put in his chips with Queen of Diamonds 5 of Hearts. The board posed no threat to the aces and Pare was eliminated in sixth place.
