Josh Tekesky Eliminated in 6th Place (AUD $20,250)
Josh Tekesky started the day as the overall chipleader, but he's just been banished in sixth place, good for AUD $20,250.
Earlier, Tekesky raised to 16,500 from under the gun before Kosta Varoxis reraised to 40,000. The action folded back around to Tekesky, who moved all-in. Varoxis snap-called, tabling and Tekesky looked sick as he revealed .
The board ran out and after the chips were cut down, Varoxis was deemed the shorter of the two stacks, so he doubled through, leaving Tekesky with just 19,000 in chips which were shipped into the middle in the very next hand after a raise by Varoxis and a reraise all-in from Waki Waki.
Varoxis opened-folded , but breathed a sigh of relief after Waki showed down , which were miles ahead of Tekesky's . The board and Tekesky was done for the day.
Waki is now up to 470,000 while Varoxis now holds 268,000.
