Neilson Gets Some Revenge

Preflop, Daniel Neilson opened to 19,000 and Kristian Lunardi called with position from the button.

The flop was {4-Spades}{q-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} and Neilson bet 27,000. Lunardi flat called and the turn was the {7-Clubs} which both players checked.

Neilson checked looking weak on the river {4-Hearts} and Lunardi took the bait betting 50,000. Neilson then check-raised over the top for 150,000 and Lunardi laid it down.

Lunardi Loops Neilson

Kristian Lunardi has doubled up through Daniel Neilson.

Preflop, Neilson made it 19,000 to go and Lunardi raised to 50,000. Neilson shipped it in, setting Lunardi all in, and he called.

Lunardi: {Q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}
Neilson: {9-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}

The board ran out {3-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{10-Spades}{5-Hearts}{3-Hearts} to make both players full books. Lunardi had the bigger one so moves up to 525,000. He just trails Daniel Neilson who has 534,000.

Tony Dunst Eliminated in 7th Place ($17,150 AUD)

Tony "Bond18" Dunst has been eliminated by Leo Margets, who takes the chip lead.

Dunst opened preflop to 13,500 and Margets made the call from the blinds. The flop came {8-Hearts}{5-Spades}{3-Spades}. Margets checked the flop, and Dunst fired 18,000. Margets check-raised to 48,000 and Dunst responded by moving all in for about 211,000. Margets made the call and they tabled their cards.

Dunst: {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}
Margets: {5-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}

Margets set would leave Dunst in a bad position, and the {q-Clubs} turn and {Q-Diamonds} river would fail to improve him.

"Someone get me a chip rack," said Margets as she dragged the pot. "I can't see my cards".

With the huge pot Margets moves up to 856,000.

Oliver Speidel Eliminated in 8th Place ($14,700 AUD)

With the elimination of Oliver Speidel we're at a seven handed final table.

The money went in preflop, after Leo Margets opened to 8,000 and Oliver Speidel moved all in for 180,000.

Speidel: {8-Spades}{8-Clubs}
Margets: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}

The {8-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{2-Hearts} made Margets a flush and sends Speidel out one short of the final table.

They are breaking quickly for the seven handed final table. We'll have the seating draw and chip counts shortly.
