Ralph Bamblett Eliminated in 55th Place (AU$15,000)

[user75032]

It's not going that well for the short stacks. Most of the hands that are taking place are bust-outs. The few short stacks who did manage to double up were so short that they soon busted anyway. Add Ralph Bamblett's name to the list. He moved in for 26,000 preflop with {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{10-Diamonds}

. David Docherty squeezed out {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{9-Diamonds}

and made the call.

Bamblett was in the clear after the flop came down {K-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

{8-Clubs}

{3-Diamonds}

. Disaster came on the turn, however, when the dealer pulled the {9-Spades}

{9-Spades}

out of the deck to make a pair for Docherty. That left Bamblett looking for a river ten that he didn't get. The river came {Q-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

to send him to the rail.
