Kerr KO'd
With a raise and a call ahead of him, Daren Yoon made the call from the button holding 
to see a 
flop fall and the original raiser fire out a continuation bet.
Scott Kerr made the call along with Yoon as the 
rolled off on the turn and Kerr took the lead this time with only Yoon making the call.
The river landed a complete blank - the 
- and Kerr fired out 3,500 to put Yoon into the tank before moving all in.
Kerr followed suit by contemplating his decision for some time before finally calling off the rest of his chips holding 
. However it would be Yoon's nut straight that would see him collect the pot and the virtual double up while sending last year's ANZPT Gold Coast Champion to the rail.
Borg Busto
David Borg has been one player that has enjoyed his journeys across the Tasman Sea to New Zealand.
Over the past three years, Borg has made the trip to participate in the New Zealand Poker Championships held down in Christchurch, and although he stumbled this year just prior to the close of day one when he was eliminated by Cole Swannack, Borg's previous two events were extremely successful.
In 2008 Borg managed to sit atop the highly skilled field to capture the NZ$100,000 ($77,966) first prize before returning in 2009 to fall a gallant second to Soren Eriksen for a NZ$50,000 ($28,670) payday.
Unfortunately here in Auckland, Borg will be unable to replicate his Christchurch feats as he has just been eliminated.
Our PokerNews reporter got wind of the hand from a fellow tablemate of Borg's and detailed that on a flop of 
, Borg's opponent bet-called a raise from Borg as a 
rolled off on the turn.
Donking out for 700, Borg made it 2,500, only to be met with a three-bet to 6,200. Borg moved all in for roughly 15,000 and his opponent made the call.

Opponent:
With Borg holding the nuts, he would unfortunately see the roll off on the turn to see his opponent take the lead with a full house and send the New South Welshman to the rail.
Top Set for Hachem
PokerStars.net Team Pro Australia member Tony Hachem has kicked off his day with a nice pot to edge ahead.
Opening to 250 preflop from under the gun, Hachem was greeted with a caller on the button only to have the small blind three-bet to 1,150. Hachem made the call as the player on the button passed.
The dealer dropped a 
flop and the small blind fired out a continuation bet of 1,450 only to have Hachem bump it to 3,950 to force a fold from his opponent.
As Hachem raked in the pot to move to 22,500, flashed his 
for the second nuts.

One Falls . . . Already!
Michael Kroger limped in only to have Emerson Rewi bump it to 400 from the small blind.
Kroger made the call from the hijack before seeing a 
flop fall and a bet of 750 follow from Rewi. Kroger made it 1,750 to go only to have Rewi three-bet to 4,300 as Kroger made the call.
The turn landed the 
and once Rewi checked, Kroger made it a flat 5,000 to go only yo have Rewi check-raise all in. Kroger instantly made the call tabling his 
to have Rewi and his 
drawing dead.
The river landed the meaningless 
to send Rewi to the rail and Kroger up to 40,000 in chips.
