We didn’t catch the full hand but arrived at the table to see the board spread out 
with Ricky Kroesen’s 
losing to his opponents . The money went all in on the flop, and Kroesen was looking like doubling up, until the board ran running queen-five to give his opponent a full-house.
Kroesen was not happy as he quickly made his way out of the tournament floor.

Alex Lynskey has just felt the wrath of an Australian Poker Hall of Fame Member. Seated next to Gary Benson, Lynskey and the old school pro got all the chip in preflop, with Lynskey holding 
and Benson having him covered holding 
.
Lynskey was all in for around 30,000 and was looking to double up, but the 
board was of no help and with that Lynskey was sent to the rail.

A big hand just occurred over on Table 5. Ebon Bokody opened with a bet of 3,100, before Brendon Rubie raised to 8,300 in chips. Bokody called, as both players saw the flop come 
. They checked to see the come on the turn. Bokody checked, as Rubie placed out 7,200. Bokody came back over the top for 16,100 which was called. The river fell the 
and Bokody quickly bet out 21,000. Rubie thought for a moment, and announced all in, covering Bokody.
Maybe two minutes had passed before Sam Khouiss called for time. Bokody made the call and tabled 
for the straight, as Rubie tabled 
for a straight as well.
“I’m going to call time on you the second it reaches you next hand!” said Bokody.

The hand started with Grant Levy opening to 2,800 and finding a caller from the player in the cut-off. The flop came 
and Levy conitued with a bet of 3,200, which was called. The 
fell on the turn and Levy checked.
“How much do you have?” asked his opponent.
“About 25,000,” replied Levy.
The player in the cut-off then threw out 10,000 in chips, and was met with an instant all in from Levy. It took his opponent by surprise, as he sat back in his chair, contemplating whether to call. After talking to himself for a minute, he eventually folded the hand, giving up the pot to Levy.
As the dealer pushed over the pot, Levy tabled his 
.
“I feel so much better now,” said his opponent.
