12.15am: Play ends as the bubble bursts

It only took one hand to burst the bubble and end play for the day and the unfortunate player was Petrus Cornelius Martinus from Holland.

He was up against Neil Raine and all the chips went in on a5♠K♦Q♠ flop. Martinus tabled K♠J♣ for top pair but was in a world of trouble as Raine tabled A♠A♣ for an over-pair. The turn and river ran out 5♦3♠ and the remaining players erupted with joy as they knew they were in the money.

Full chip counts and a brief wrap (party calls) of the day will be up soon.

12.05am: Hand-for-hand

There are now 51 players remaining meaning it's bubble time. Each hand is now playing hand-for-hand. Just as this was announced to the players semi-naked cabaret dancers from Privilege decided to make an appearance and wander through the tables. Only in Ibiza (or maybe Las Vegas) and what timing?


Busto hand they got the villians hand wrong he had AK
9.40pm: Last Brit not standing
The man who burst the bubble and the last British player is out. Neil Raine was down to a little more than 100,000 when he open shoved from the button with A♦Q♣. He was unlucky that Alvaro Santamaria was sat in the big blind withA♦Q♣. The board ran 2♦8♥3♠5♥K♥. Santamaria is up to a little less than one million chips now.
