Nelson Takes It From Dillon
We came to former Aussie Millions champion Lee Nelson's table with a board showing 
and a big pot building against Pat Dillon.
Nelson checked the turn, at which point Dillon bet 17,800. Nelson then put in the check raise to 41,200. Dillon thought for quite some time before taking a last look at his hole cards and flicking them into the muck. Nelson then said he had sixes and hoped Dillon had aces. Dillon responded by saying he did have aces.

Quad Aces for Grigg
We're not sure of the action, but Con Kamaras was all in preflop with 
and up against the 
of Tom Grigg. Kamaras was dominated and left drawing dead on the 
flop as Grigg flopped quads! The 
turn and 
river were run out for good measure, as a shellshocked Kamaras exited the tournament floor.

Mercier to Dwan: "Get the F*** Out of Here"
Level 9
: 600/1,200, 200 ante
Tom "durrrr" Dwan's table was recently broke, much to Jason Koon's relief as he had Dwan on his left. Now, Jason Mercier has the distinction of having Dwan action immediately after him. As Dwan was placing his chips down on Table 30, Mercier looked up, noticed his opponent, and politely said, "Get the f*** out of here."
