Defending Champ Krost Eliminated

Level 6 : 300/600, 75 ante
Tyron Krost - eliminated
Tyron Krost - eliminated

With the flop reading {Q-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}, defending Aussie Millions Main Event champion Tyron Krost was involved in a hand with Gavin Griffin. After Griffin fired a bet of 4,000, Krost raised to 8,500. Griffin reraised all in for 38,000 and Krost made the call for less and was at risk.

Griffin had the {A-Hearts}{A-Spades} and was crushing Krost's {A-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}. This wasn't the first time Krost was crushed here in the Main Event. He recently was on the bad end of a set-over-set confrontation, but smacked a miracle one-outer on the river to stay alive. It seems Krost may have used up all of his run good though.

The turn brought the {J-Spades} and the river the {2-Diamonds}. Both left Krost second best in the hand and Griffin won the pot. With no more chips left in front of him, Krost was eliminated from the tournament and ensured that there would be no back-to-back run. Griffin moved to 76,000 in chips.
