The two made a deal and play for "just" ￡5,170, but they're certainly not giving anything away. Play has gone back and forth and both players are just as aggressive from the button. No big pots as of yet, they're keeping the pots small.

: 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante
It could take a cooler situation before a champion is crowned here in the Isle of Man because neither player is really giving anything away and the chips are going to and fro.
One hand saw Daniel Stacey raise to 125,000 then call a 275,000 three-bet from Paren Arzoomanian. Arzoomanian led for 305,000 but then folded to a raise to 700,000.
Neither player is shying away from playing against the other, but both are very competent and are not giving away their chips without a fight.
