Day 4 Started
This is it! The final day of the third stop on Season 5 of the Australia New Zealand Poker Tour. By the end of today an ANZPT Perth champion will be crowned, but who will it be?
Heading into the final table with the chip lead, and therefore the player best pressed to go all the way, is Japan's Iori Yogo. Yesterday saw Yogo steadily build his stack before a late surge would ensure his chip bag was the fullest.
Close behind Yogo is our one other international player of the final nine, Dejan Divkovic, while Dale Marsland is in close pursuit with the third largest chip stack. These players will face some stiff competition though, with Luke Brabin, David Evans, David Fragomeni and James Broom all having enough chip to run up their stacks and be in contention at the vital stages of the tournament.

The players at the ANZPT Perth Final Table have been introduced and the cards are now in the air!
Today's action begins at 3,000-6,000 with a 1,000 ante. That means the average stack is more than 70 big blinds. We have been told having this many chips in play means the day will go quicker. We aren't too sure though.
Let's crown the latest ANZPT champion!
James Broom was under the gun when he opened it up to 12,000. Folded around to Dejan Divkovic in the cut-off and he would raise it up to 27,000. The action was then on Dale Marsland on the button and after a few moments, he opted to make the flat call. Broom decided to get out of the way.
On the flop, Divkovic led for 27,000 and Marsland called. Both players then checked the turn and the river.
At showdown, Marsland turned over and Divkovic mucked.
"I thought you were being sneaky with that flat on the button," said Broomn as Marsland raked in his chips. "You were hoping i ship, he isolates, then boom!"
Player | Chips | Progress |
---|---|---|
Dejan Divkovic | 800,000 | -104,000 |
Dale Marsland | 775,000 | 101,000 |
The first elimination of the day has just occurred. It began when Colin Wilford opened to 12,000 from under the gun. Folded around to David Fragomeni in the cut-off and he would move all in for 120,000. Next to act was David Evans on the button and he would also move in, with his stack at 130,000. Wilford tanked before folding his face up. With that, Fragomeni was at risk and the two players turned their hands over.
Fragomeni:
Evans:
It wasn't looking for Fragomeni and it didn't get any better as the board was spread on the felt.
Player | Chips | Progress |
---|---|---|
David Evans | 295,000 | |
David Fragomeni | Busted |
Dale Marsland was in middle position when he opened it up to 12,000. David Evans, from Marsland's direct left, three-bet to 22,000. The action was sent back around to Marsland, who went into the tank.
Marsland eventually kind of smirked and said something to Evans that we couldn't hear. Marsland then smirked again and folded face up. Evans then showed his as he scooped up the pot.
Iori Yogo was in middle position when he opened it up to 15,000. Dejan Divkovic made the call from the button and so too did David Evans from the big blind.
The dealer turned over a flop and Evans checked before Yogo bet 30,000. Divkovic flicked out a call, while Evans decided to fold. The turn would see Yogo again bet, this time 55,000. Divkovic tanked and then eventually called as a big pot was building.
The river would see Yogo hesitate before betting 125,000. Divkovic quickly folded this time and Yogo raked in the pot to see his stack move over 1 million in chips.
Player | Chips | Progress |
---|---|---|
Iori Yogo | 1,150,000 | 157,000 |
Dejan Divkovic | 650,000 | -150,000 |
"Now you're in trouble," said James Broom to the table in general as he recently raked in a handy double.
It started with David Evans opening the cut off to 18,000. Broom then three-bet all in for 79,000. The rest of the table was out of the way before it was back on Evans, who made the call.
Evans:
Broom:
The board was good for Broom and with a fist bump from his fans on the rail, Broom scooped up the double to now sit with a much healthier stack.

James Broom | 178,000 | 91,000 |
