Michael "Sticky" Guttman Eliminated in 6th Place (AU$30,960)

Michael "Sticky" Guttman opened the action with a raise to 9,000. Lee Watkinson makes the call in position and the blinds fold.

Flop: {10-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}

Guttman bet the pot making it 22,500 to go. Watkinson instantly and silently pushes all of his remaining chips into the middle and Guttman goes into the tank. The bet is for 59,000 and covers Guttman. He eventually makes the call and the cards are tabled:

Guttman: {K-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}
Watkinson: {10-Spades}{K-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}{8-Spades}

The turn is the {4-Spades} and river {3-Diamonds} and Watkinson's trip tens are good to take the pot. This is not the first time Watkinson and Guttman have tangled in a major Omaha tournament. At the 2006 WSOP Guttman finished runner-up to Watkinson in the $10,000 Pot Limit Omaha World Championship. Once again today Watkinson gets the better of Guttman, eliminating him from today's event in 6th place for AU$30,960.
