Banning Knocks Out O'Brien

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Day 2 of the ANZPT Sydney has just begun and the sickness has started along with it.

The action started with a middle position raise to 3,500 from Jason O'Brien and Dave Banning three-betting to 10,000 from the cutoff position. The action folded back to O'Brien who made the call for 6,500 more. The flop came {J-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} and O'Brien led out for 11,000. After a lot of thought Banning announced he was all in for 28,000 total and O'Brien instantly called turning over {J-Hearts}{J-Clubs} for top set and Banning was behind with the over pair of {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}.

The turn caused the players at the table to let out a “ohhh, wow” as the {Q-Clubs} put Banning back in the lead. The river {K-Hearts} ensured Banning would get the knock out and moves his chip stack up to 76,000.

Coombe Sends One Home

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Dominic Coombe has started the day strong as he finds himself with a six-figure chip stack.

We recently watched Coombe eliminate Chi Yan Ng.

All the chips went in on a {3-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{10-Hearts} flop, with Coombe having {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} and Ng having {a-Spades}{10-Diamonds}.

Ng needed help, but it didn't come on the {3-Hearts} turn or the {6-Diamonds} river and so it was all over.

Zaven's Aces, Boxell's Apparent Kings

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Australian Hall of Famer Leo Boxell has got away from Kings.

The Action started with Boxell raising from early position to 2,200 and finding two callers in Ken Demlakian in middle position and Nathan Turner on the button. Zaven Demlakian was in the small blind and three bet to 7,800 here. Boxell thought for a long period of time before making the call as did Ken Demlakian and Turner. The flop fell {3-Spades}{8-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} to which Zaven Demlakian fired out a bet of 23,000. Boxell was clearly feeling the pressure and went into the tank for three minutes before releasing his hand into the muck in disgust.

The other two quickly released their hands and Zaven Demlakian showed pocket aces and Boxell stated “I folded the Kings, I knew it was either aces or queens but I didn’t think you would do that with queens.”

Boxell’s tournament life is saved but is still low with just under 25,000 while Zaven Demlakian climbs to 88,000.
