Georgoulas bet on third, fourth, and fifth. Demetriou called on each street and then called all in on sixth. After the two players squeezed out their last cards, Demetriou's 8-6-4-2-A low was better than Georgoulas' Q-6-5-4-2 low.

Putt just couldn't catch a better pair on the seventh-card squeeze and that was it for his tournament. He did take home $2,301 for his efforts.
"You busted me from four tournaments mate, I had to get you in one," said Cabrera as he shook hands with Kiwi G.

Cabrera made the high with a pair of queens and Georgoulas made the low with 7-6-5-3-A. Both players had about half of their stacks in the middle by seventh street, only to chop it all up at the end of the hand.
Abel Cabrera has assumed the tournament chip lead after collecting a surprising scoop against overnight leader Sean Arazi.
Cabrera held and could only muster up a pair of eights for the high and an eighty-six low but it was good for both sides of the pot as Arazi slammed his cards into the muck in disgust.
Cabrera is up to 147,000 and Arazi falls to 104,000.
