My mate is currently leading a poker tourney with £600,000 prize pool

Well done to him, must have been horrible having to wait around in the hope someone else goes out 
On the plus side, he's not the short stack
Didn't realise Matt Jarvis was in this one too, he's at the WSOP ME final table for this year too!

Best of luck!

£13.7k at least now!
He's up to 116,000, shoved twice to raises and wasn't called.
Latest update is he has 128,000 - level 20 just started, 5k/10k with a 1k ante.
He's done it again
- Mendi Senhaji opened to 26,000, and the table folded around to the blinds. In the small, Paul Pitchford three-bet all in for 110,000, and that was enough to earn him the pot.
159,000 now!

Over the course of 1 hand it's 95% luck, 5% skill. Over the course of a career it's 95% skill, 5% luck.
Bluffing is an element of skill.
Ouch:
Jomeen: {5-Diamonds} {5-Hearts}
Pitchford: {A-Clubs} {Q-Clubs}
Jomeen would be a big fan of the board, as it saved his tournament life. It came {10-Diamonds} {8-Clubs} {2-Clubs} {K-Diamonds} {7-Diamonds} to keep him afloat, doubling him up to 157,000. Pitchford, on the other hand, is in quite a bad way with just 60,000 left.
He's now doubled up though to 125,000 - He had A8 against 63 (!?!) and won that one
In a battle of the blinds, Scott Shelley shoved at Paul Pitchford's 50,000-chip stack, and the big blind called it off with {A-Hearts} {8-Clubs}. Shelly was working with a meager {3-Spades} {6-Spades}, but he was not in the worst spot to try for the 60-40 knockout. He even managed to make two pair as it came {A-Spades} {6-Clubs} {2-Hearts} {8-Spades} {3-Clubs}, but it was not as good as Pitchford's two pair.

He's back up to 115k
About 170k now, just took down a pot he'd raised to 24k pre-flop, 1 caller. He bet 32k on the turn and the other player folded
