Oliver Gill Eliminated in 5th Place (AUD$4,760)

Level 14
Oliver Gill - 5th place
Oliver Gill - 5th place

Pot Limit Omaha

Bruno Portaro opened to 7,000 from under the gun only to have Oliver Gill slide in a stack of chips from the button amounting to 23,000.

With the action on Richard Ashby in the big blind, he pushed roughly 130,000 into the pot - albeit slightly more than pot - as Portaro folded.

"Well I'm live!" stated Gill as he slid roughly his last 70,000 into the middle.

Ashby: {A-Hearts}{A-Spades}{J-Spades}{K-Clubs}
Gill: {J-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{5-Spades}

The {K-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} flop kept Ashby in the lead as the {5-Hearts} on the turn gave both players a sweat.

"And bink!" yelled a now standing Gill as the dealer dropped the {10-Clubs} on the river to end Gill's tournament in fifth place for a AUD$4,760 payday as Ashby soars to 279,000 in chips.
