Michael Matthews Eliminated in 5th Place (AUD $8,750)

Michael Matthews had been crippled down to just 30,000 in a previous hand after Fred Chaptini doubled through him with pocket aces against his {k-Spades}

{k-Spades}

{10-Clubs}

.

Matthews moved it into the middle a short time later and was called down by Alan Nicholls.

Nicholls: {q-Hearts}

{q-Hearts}

{q-Clubs}

Matthews:

{8-Spades}

{8-Hearts}

The flop of {3-Diamonds}

{3-Diamonds}

{9-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

helped neither player, but Matthews found some possibilities when the {7-Clubs}

{7-Clubs}

appeared on the turn.

However a repeat {10-Spades}

{10-Spades}

fell on the river, eliminating Matthews, who has cashed in all three Aussie Millions events he has played this year and made two final tables - a fantastic effort from the 'Man from Nagambie'.

Nicholls moves up to 360,000 in chips.
