Kenny Ng Eliminates James Honeybone

Just before the end of the first level of play, Australian pro Kenny Ng eliminated James Honeybone from the tournament. Here's how the hand went down according to Kenny:

The action folded around to James in the small blind who made it 350 to go. Kenny then kicked it up to 1,000 from the big blind and James made the call. The flop came A-K-Q and James checked to Kenny who led out with a 1,2000 bet; James made the call.

The turn brought a four and this time it was James who bet out, tossing 1,500 into the middle. Kenny then put in a raise, upping the ante to 5,000. Again, James made the call.

The last card off the deck was a 10 and James open-shoved all in, putting Kenny to a decision for most of his chips. Sitting with pocket fours, having made a set on the turn, Kenny went into the tank a bit before eventually making the call. Borrowing a popular line from Joe Hachem, he shouted, "Pass the sugar!" after he realized he'd won the hand.
