It was all over on the turn as a fell to give her an unbeatable full house, as the river bricked.
We've been told that Stewart Scott, Eric Assadourian and Matthew Kirk all agreed to go all in preflop without looking at their cards, but after seeing their holdings we're not so sure...
Assadourian:
Scott:
Kirk:
The board was spread and Kirk makes an unlikely backdoor straight to take down the pot, crippling Assadourian and eliminating Scott in the process. Kirk was pretty keen to get over to the big cash game which is starting up but looks like he'll have to stick around a little longer.
The shenanigans continue on table 28 as Matthew Kirk continues to gamble and the tournament directors become a little agitated.
Eric Assadourian was caught in the middle as he got his last chips in the middle with . He was up against Kirk and a third player on the button who took down the pot holding when the board was spread .
Kirk's run came to an end soon after as he shoved three hands in a row in the dark and eventually met his demise as he happily joined the big cash game.
On a board reading Steve "The Big Show" Topakas moved all in from the small blind for 1,600 and was called by the big blind and a player in the cut off. The turn was the and the river was the and the players revealed their cards.

Big Blind:
Cut Off:
Topakas could not hit his flush, and was eliminated from the tournament.
Australian cult hero, Antonis "Toothpick Tony" Kambouroglou has been eliminated in a cooler at the hands of Vesko Zmukic.
Toothpick hit a set of jacks on the flop but they were behind Zmukic's set of kings to leave Toothpick crippled and eliminated a few moments later. Zmukic is now up to 23,000 chips to be amongst our chip leaders.
Lee Nelson raised it up from late position to 450 before Emad Tahtouh potted it to 1,500 from the small blind. Nelson made the call and they saw a flop of .
Tahtouh led out for 3,150 which was enough to force a fold from Nelson as Tahtouh flashed aces!
Tahtouh is up to 22,500 as Nelson is still travelling well with 13,200 chips.
