Briones Slips

With a limp under the gun and a raise to 1,800, Servio Briones bumped it to 5,100 from late position.

The original limper passed, but the aggressor moved all in for 15,450 with Briones making the call.

Briones: {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs}
Opponent: {K-Spades}{K-Diamonds}

The board ran out {8-Clubs}{J-Spades}{5-Hearts}{Q-Spades}{Q-Hearts} to see Briones relinquish some chips to his opponent to slip to 58,000 and change.

Smith-Hansen Exits

Mads 'moumaife84' Smith-Hansen
Mads 'moumaife84' Smith-Hansen

Facing a preflop raise, Mads Smith-Hansen moved all in for roughly 6,500 as the original raiser made the call.

Smith-Hansen: {8-}{8-}
Opponent: {K-}{4-}

Unfortunately for Smith-Hansen, the final board would see his hand counterfeited as it dropped two queens and two jacks to put him on the rail, and send him back to the virtual felt!

Team PokerStars Pro Update

Lee Nelson
Lee Nelson

Team PokerStars Pro Australia member Lee Nelson is still alive in today's tournament albeit his quiet play.

Heading to break with 19,800 in chips - slightly under what he began the day with - Nelson will have a 33-big blind stack to contend with when he returns to his seat for the final level.

Although quite short in comparison to some of the chip leaders today, and also those that bagged their chips yesterday, Nelson has had good success here at SKYCITY Auckland with a recent victory at the New Zealand Poker Open in the NZ$300 Pot Limit Omaha event. Combine that win with a final table last year in the APPT side events, along with many victories and final tables in neighboring Christchurch - and Nelson definitely has what it takes to go the distance in this event.

Set-Over-Set Double for Colman

Julius Colman
Julius Colman

Julius Colman entered the pot with a raise to 1,600 and only Richard Lancaster made the call as the {J-Hearts}{K-Spades}{4-Diamonds} flop fell down.

Colman fired out a continuation-bet of 2,200 only to have Lancaster bump it up to 5,200. Colman deliberated momentarily before making it 14,200 as Lancaster followed that with an all in. Colman made the call for his tournament life, and we were off to a showdown.

Lancaster: {4-Hearts}{4-Spades}
Colman: {K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}

In a sick cooler hand of set-over-set, no miracle would fall for Lancaster as the turn and river landed the {3-Diamonds} and {Q-Hearts} to see Colman double through to 80,000 as Lancaster slips to 34,000 in chips.
