Bouskila Bounced, Sheary Sent Home

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 200 ante

Michel Bouskila, Peter Sheary and Mike Watson have all just hit the rail, leaving us with 20 players as the action continues here at the Aussie Millions $2,200 No Limit Hold'em Six Handed event.

Bouskila moved the last of his money into the middle after the turn on a board that read {5-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{7-Spades} holding {9-Spades}{8-Spades}, but was crushed by Danny Chevalier who had flopped a set with {K-Spades}{K-Diamonds}. The river {Q-Spades} changed nothing and Bouskila was eliminated in 23rd place.

Then on table 32, Sheary moved the last of his stack in before the flop with {A-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}, but failed to improve against Ben Vinson who called with {A-Clubs}{K-Spades}. The board was spread {10-Spades}{4-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}, sending Sheary on his way in 22nd place.

The cry of "All in, call" then went up over on the feature table where Mike Watson was at risk with {A-Hearts}{Q-Clubs} against Billy Argyros' {J-Spades}{J-Spades}, but couldn't find anything on the board of {2-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{K-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} and departed in 21st place.

All these players will receive AUD $3,400 for their efforts. The tournament staff have advised us that once we get down to 18 players, play will cease for the night.
