Foad Sattarzadeh bet 750,000 from the cutoff and was shoved on by Lin Chen on the button for 3,325,000.
A pained smile came across Sattarzadeh's face who was doing the math in his head and with five seconds left made the call.
Lin Chen: 9?9?
Foad Sattarzadeh: A?J?
Sattarzadeh was relieved to see it was a flip situation, however Chen won out after the double-paired board of K?5?4?K?5?.
A frustrated Ali Ayub quipped "This is the problem when you get too many hands! This guy (Sattarzadeh) has had more hands in twenty minutes than I have in two days!"
Ali continued his complaining throughout the entire writing of this hand.

Chen Lin bet 700,000 from under the gun and Yanwen Li shoved from the button covering everyone else left to act. Lewis Nuttall called from the big blind. Lin looked pained and used two time bank cards before folding.
Lewis Nuttall: A?Q? 
Yanwen Li: A?K?
A domination situation with Nuttall behind. There was no assistance on the 10?7?3?6?10? board to improve Nuttall who headed to the exit, while Li extends her chip lead

David Langsdale bet 700,000 from the cutoff and Jorge Palomino affectively moved all in from the small blind. Langsdale raised to put Palomino at risk for 3,100,000.
Jorge Palomino: 6?6?
David Langsdale: J?J?
Palomino was in rough shape and was dead on the turn with the runout of K?Q?2?J?2? giving Langsdale a boat and the experienced Spaniard is the first casualty of the day.

From 170 players down to 18, we have reached the final day of the EAPT UK Main Event at Dusk Till Dawn, Nottingham with Yanwen Li bringing in the chip lead vying for the top prize of ￡75,500.
Li who has only three recorded cashes has already guaranteed the biggest payday in her playing career. She took out one of the hot favorites in Francis Obadun in the small hours of Day 2 to finish with a stack of 22,450,000.
In second place is Ionut Dumitrana, who probably wishes this was a bounty tournament as he sent five players to the rail inside an hour late on Day 2. He will start today with 21,500,000.

Trevor Pearson brings the most experience to the final day with his first recorded cash back in 2007. Pearson reached back-to-back final tables at UKIPT Nottingham in 2014 and 2015 netting a cool ￡200,000 combined.
However, a big trophy has alluded Pearson and the EAPT UK Main Event trophy will nicely round his playing achievements.
Also in the hunt is rising star Hong Pham who has amassed $243,000 in live earnings in the past four years. Pham has ice running through her veins with a cool demeanor and ties her opponents in knots.
A win today would be the biggest cash of her life, eclipsing her second-place finish at the WSOP Circuit Main Event at Dusk Till Dawn last year.
Each player has locked up a cash of ￡3,500, but the next elimination will see a pay jump to ￡4,000.
Cards will be in the air at 1 p.m. local time and the clock will be extended from 50 minutes per level to 60 minutes.
Players received their last top-up of time bank cards at the three-table redraw and will need to use them wisely if they need any on the final table.
Dusk Till Dawn will be streaming the final table and when that happens PokerNews will report with a 30-minute delay to coincide with the broadcast. Stick with PokerNews for all the latest action.
