Tsugunari Toma Eliminated in 13th Place (HKD 124,400)

Tsugunari Toma - 13th Place
Tsugunari Toma - 13th Place

Tsugunari Toma was somewhat short stacked when he shoved all in from under the gun. A couple of positions to his left was Kai Yat Fam and he made the call before a flurry of cards were sent into the muck from all around the table.

Yat Fam tabled his {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds} and was well ahead of the {k-Hearts}{6-Hearts} which Toma held. When the board ran out {5-Clubs}{j-Spades}{a-Spades}{8-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}, it was all over for Toma as we are down to 12 here in Macau.

Josh Barrett Eliminated in 14th Place (HKD 124,400)

When the action was folded to Josh Barrett in the small blind position he shoved all in and received a call from Fabian Spiedelmann in the big blind.

Barrett: {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}
Spiedelmann: {a-Clubs}{3-Clubs}

The {7-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} flop was not a good one for Barrett, giving Spiedelmann a lot of outs. The {a-Diamonds} on the turn was devastating to Barrett and when no miracle jack came on the river, it was all over for the young Aussie player.
