: 100/200, 25 ante
Frederik Jensen has copped a brutal beat at the hands of Roy Vandersluis and as a result has been crippled down to just 3,000 in chips.
All the money was in the middle on the turn on a board that read 
; Jensen had flopped a full house with his 
, but the rest of the table gasped as Vandersluis showed 
for a bigger full house!
The river 
completed the board and Vandersluis is now up to 13,500 in chips.

Hachem KO'ed
Level 3
: 100/200, 0 ante
No sooner had we spoken to Tony Hachem about Bruno Portaro's elimination, we witnessed his bust-out at the hands of the impressively named Tore Lukashagen.
The board read 
as the pot was being pushed towards Lukashagen; he had tabled 
for a turned two pair against Hachem, who had only managed to make second pair, top kicker with his 
.
Thus endeth the tournament life of the two-time ANZPT Player of the Year.

Table 21 was one of the first to have been broken down and we came across Tony Hachem, who, along with Tony Dunst, have been allocated to tables on the feature table side of the room.
However, we also discovered that Aytunc Tezay, who's now up in the high-limit area, was responsible for the elimination of Bruno Portaro.
As Hachem recalled to us, Portaro was all-in with 
on a flop of 
, but ran into Tezay's 
. The turn and river bricked out and Portaro was no more.
We also witnessed the elimination of JP Kelly, who was one of today's late entrants. Down to his last 1,000 in chips, he moved them all-in preflop with 
but lost the flip for his tournament life against Lee Nelson's 
after he improved to a set on the board of
