Oppenheim Finds Double

Level 6 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

James Bord pushed all in from the button to put David Oppenheim in a tough spot from the big blind.

With Oppenheim and his 130,000-plus chip stack being covered by Bord, he went deep into the tank for several minutes.

"I've worked it all the way back up to 135,000 and now I have a very big hand. And for some reason I don't wanna call!" stated Oppenheim.

"How much do you have? Just approximate." asked Bord.

"220, 230 maybe." responded Bord as Oppenheim stood up to continue his lengthy deliberation.

"40, 50, 80?" Oppenheim asked in reference to the payout structure as a few players nodded accordingly.

Several more minutes went by before Oppenheim announced call.

"I didn't see how many chips you had. I made a mistake!" stated Bord as each player flipped their hand over.

Bord: {A-Hearts}{5-Hearts}
Oppenheim: {A-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}

With Oppenheim in the lead, and all in for his 145,500, the {4-Spades}{6-Hearts}{j-Diamonds} flop kept him that way.

The {8-Clubs} on the turn gave Bord outs to a straight, but when the {3-Clubs} landed on the river, Oppenheim doubled through to just under 300,000 as Bord was left with roughly 80,000 in chips.

Patrik Antonius Eliminated in 5th Place (AUD$40,000)

Level 7 : 4,000/8,000, 500 ante
Patrik Antonius - 5th place
Patrik Antonius - 5th place

James Bord pushed from the small blind for 63,000 and Patrik Antonius made the call for his final 41,000.

Bord: {10-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}
Antonius: {A-Clubs}{4-Hearts}

"Im ahead again!" stated Antonius before the dealer dropped the {K-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} flop to reduce one of Bord's outs.

The {6-Hearts} on the turn however game Bord an additional three outs - effictively replacing the three he lost on the flop - and unfortunately for Antonius, it would be the {4-Spades} on the river that would end his tournament in fifth place for a AUD$40,000 payday.

Boatman Pushes

Level 7 : 4,000/8,000, 500 ante

Barny Boatman pushed from button and found two callers, before he did it again the following hand.

He again found a series of folds to add a much valuable 14,000 to his stack on both occasions.

River Bet Win for Oppenheim

Level 7 : 4,000/8,000, 500 ante

David Oppenheim opened to 17,000 from the button and Barny Boatman made the call from the big blind to see a {K-Hearts}{J-Clubs}{6-Clubs} flop fall.

Both players checked, and when the {5-Diamonds} landed on the turn, they again tapped the table to see the {3-Hearts} complete the community cards.

Boatman checked, and Oppenheim tossed in 12,000 to force a fold from Boatman.
