Three big pots in No-Limit Hold'em have spelled the end for local grinder Peter Aristidou.

He raised the button to 25,000 and Stephen Chidwick called. The flop came {7-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{3-Spades} and after Chidwick checked, Aristidou led for 27,000. Chidwick raised to 65,000 and Aristidou called. The turn came the {9-Hearts} and Chidwick led for 55,000. Aristidou called, and after Chidwick checked the {k-Diamonds} river, Aristidou bet 120,000.

Chidwick tank-called with the {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}, catching Aristidou with the {a-Hearts}{3-Hearts} for just a pair of threes.

Aristidou won the next pot with a check-raise on a {10-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{j-Clubs} board, but the third spelled doom for the Aussie.

The final hand started with a raise to 25,000 from Aristidou on the button. Chidwick made it 60,000 and Aristidou called. The {q-Clubs}{3-Spades}{4-Diamonds} flop saw Chidwick lead for 50,000. Aristidou raised it up to 130,000 and Chidwick pushed in.

Aristidou called off with the {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts}, but his top pair was no good. Chidwick had the {k-Diamonds}{k-Spades} and rode to victory after the {10-Hearts} turn and {2-Diamonds} river bricked out.
