Nitschke On The Rollercoaster

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

Dominik Nitschke has just gone from having a healthy stack to having under 15,000 and now back up to over 50,000.

It all started when he first lost a flip with {j-Spades}{jc] against the {a-Spades}{k-Clubs} of Raemin Alexander. Leaving himself with 15,000 Nitschke was looking likely to be the next player sent to the rail from his table.

Cut to just a few hands later and Nitschke managed to triple-up when he caught runner-runner clubs with his {k-Clubs}{8-Clubs} against John Eames' {9-}{9-} and Shao Liu's {k-}{9-}.

Tighten It Up

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

The play has tightened right up late into this tournament, with each player waiting out the eliminations of the others at their table, trying to be the last two to make a final table berth.

Level: 17

Blinds: 3,000/6,000

Ante: 500

Finally Down To Five

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 400 ante

Table 32 has lost a player to finally break it's money bubble and pay out some cash.

The player in question was Yann Dion, him moving allin holding {7-}{7-} and getting a call from Dominik Nitschke on the button holding {j-Hearts}{10-Hearts}.

The board ran out blanks until the river when a {j-} dropped and ended the hopes and dreams of Dion.

He takes home AUD$2,500 for his efforts.

The Last Bubble

Level 16 : 2,000/4,000, 400 ante

The last bubble player of the night has just been sent to the rail, with Yann Dion ousted after moving allin preflop holding {5-Spades}{8-Spades} and running into the {9-Spades}{9-Clubs} of John Eames.

The board ran out {2-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{k-Hearts} and Dion was sent packing, while Eames added to his stack.

Every table is on six or less players now and all will be receiving a cash prize.

Table Thirty-Two

This table is the only table which has not made it to the money yet, with seven players still remaining. This means that there is still one bubble player in the field. It could be any one of these players.
