Michael Harrison-Ford - 14th Place

It was a clear and present danger for Michael Harrison-Ford when Nir Peer open-shoved from middle position for 78,000. Harrison-Ford made the call out of the big blind anyway, showing down {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{6-Spades}

. Imagine his surprise when Peer turned over {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{A-Hearts}

. Harrison-Ford was not able to pull out the suck-out. That hand left him crippled with a mere 33,000 chips.

He moved all in from the small blind the very next hand after everyone else had folded. Dean Blatt called from the big blind with {Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

{3-Diamonds}

, a hand that was ahead of Harrison-Ford's "hammer," {7-Clubs}

{7-Clubs}

{2-Hearts}

. Blatt hit a queen right away, winning the hand with a board of {Q-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

{8-Diamonds}

{6-Hearts}

{9-Clubs}

{7-Hearts}

.

Harrison-Ford fell just short of the final table, but can console himself with AU$6,579 in prize money.
