David Zhao Eliminated

Zhao: goes KA-POW
Zhao: goes KA-POW
A big pot had developed between David Zhao and Josh 'JJprodigy' Field in the previous hand and our reporter just got there to see the chips being shiped over to Field, leaving Zhao with just 1,000 in chips.

Zhao moved it into the middle on the very next hand preflop; Mick Nolton and Ross Boatman called to go heads-up into a sidepot on a flop that read {2-Spades}{9-Clubs}{2-?}.

Nolton led out and Boatman quickly folded, leaving Zhao and Nolton to table their cards:

Nolton: {j-Spades}{j-Hearts}
Zhao: {a-Clubs}{K-Clubs}

The turn of the {a-Spades} put Zhao into the lead, giving him some hope of tripling up, but Nolton would have the last laugh (and the last of Zhao's chips) when the {j-Diamonds} spiked on the river for a set!

Neilson Scoops In Four-Way Carnage

Do not flip with this man!
Do not flip with this man!
A massive hand has gone down with several short stacks looking to gamble it up, with Daniel Neilson and Vanessa Selbst becoming the chief beneficiaries.

A player in the hijack position opened to 1,150 before Daniel Neilson raised to 4,750 in the cutoff. Vanessa Selbst moved all in over the top, as did the player in the big blind, with both the hijack and Neilson coming along for the ride.

Hijack: {J-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}
Neilson: {K-Hearts}{J-Hearts}
Selbst: {A-Spades}{J-Spades}
Big Blind: {4-Spades}{5-Clubs}

The board was spread {8-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{9-Spades}{4-Hearts}{6-Clubs} and Neilson made a flush to scoop the main pot as Selbst picked up the side pot with her ace-high!

Neilson is up to 19,000 with Selbst at 25,000.

Another Big Pot For Neilson

With an all-in raise from under the gun, Daniel Neilson moved all in over the top behind him, with Vanessa Selbst also making the call as another massive preflop clash developed.

The UTG player held {K-Spades}{Q-Spades} but was dominated by Neilson's {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs} as Selbst held the only pair with her {9-Spades}{9-Clubs}.

However the board was once again kind to Neilson as it landed {A-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{5-Spades}{A-Hearts}{2-Clubs} giving him a full house. He's suddenly up to 40,000 as Selbst slips to just 9,000.

Damm!

Kenneth Damm moved his last 2,400 into the middle holding {q-Diamonds}{5-Spades}, only to be called down by the {9-Hearts}{6-Clubs} of Stefan Huber.

Huber was behind all the way down the flop turn of {k-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{a-Spades}, but managed to spike the {9-Clubs} on the river to send Kenneth to eternal Damm-nation.

So Long, Selbst

Selbst: eliminated
Selbst: eliminated
Vanessa Selbst moved all in for her last 9,000 in chips into the middle holding pocket tens but ran into the pocket aces of Daniel Neilson.

An ace fell on the turn and it was enough for Neilson to deliver the final blow to Selbst. He's now up to 50,000 in chips.

Levy Makes Quads To Bust Khouiss

Three players put in 1,200 each to see an action flop of {5-Clubs}{2-Spades}{6-Clubs}. Play checked to Grant Levy who fired 2,600 into the middle. Sam Khouiss moved all in over the top for his last 6,000 forcing a fold from the third player as Levy was content to call.

Levy tabled {5-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} for top set but found himself needing to improve as Khouiss showed {3-Spades}{4-Spades} for the flopped nut straight!

The turn was the {J-Clubs} but the river brought the {5-Spades} for quads for Levy to end the run of Khouiss.

"I'm so sick of this!" complained Khouiss as Levy claimed the bounty of Khouiss, "Give me $500 you poofter!"

It wasn't to be as Levy collected Khouiss' chips and bounty as Khouiss trundled off to the bar.

Aristidou Eliminated

Adios Aristidou
Adios Aristidou
On a flop that read {5-Spades}{3-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}, Peter Aristidou led out for 3,400 into Manny Rodrigues who made the call.

The dealer produced the {4-Hearts} on the turn; Aristidou checked, Rodrigues fired out 5,000 but Aristidou check-raised to 9,700 all in.

Rodrigues made the call, showing {q-Spades}{6-Spades} for turned straight against Aristidou's {a-Hearts}{7-Hearts}.

The river {10-Hearts} completed the board, eliminating Aristidou and sending Rodrigues' stack up to 45,000 in chips.
