Jeremy Cleaver Elminated in 10th Place ($6,970 AUD)

Jeremy Cleaver only had 27,000 left when he moved all in from under the gun. Xin Zhao made the call, before Kosta Mamaliadis isolated from the small blind, sending out enough of a bet to force zhao out of the pot.

Mamaliadis: {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}
Cleaver: {a-Spades}{2-Clubs}

Board: {7-Hearts}{9-Spades}{q-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}

No luck for Cleaver as he goes home in 10th place, picking up $6,970 AUD for his time.

Middleton Moving, Lingenfelder Lacking

Ben Lingenfelder began the action by opening the pot to 22,000 from the button. Tom Middleton then three-bet out of the small blind and a call saw the {8-Hearts}{6-Spades}{10-Clubs} flop dealt.

Middleton led on the flop for 65,000 and Lingenfelder made the call as a {k-Spades} hit the turn. Middleton continued his aggression, throwing out 120,000. This bet sent Lingenfelder deep into the tank. After a couple of minutes, Lingenfelder gave his hand away and sent the pot to Middleton.

Xin Makes The Double

When Xin Zhao was all in holding {6-Spades}{6-Diamonds} and was up against the {7-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} of Peter Skouteris, it was looking like another player was going to be sent to the rail.

By the time the board had run out {a-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}, it was looking even more likely Zhao was going to be heading home. The {6-Clubs} on the river was the savior Zhao was after, taking down the double-up to survive.

Ben Richardson Eliminated in 11th Place ($6,970 AUD)

The eliminations have continued to fly fast here in the short-handed event, with Ben Richardson the latest player to make his way to the rail.

The action began when Ben Lingenfelder opened the pot to 22,000 from the button. Tom Middleton then three-bet to 55,000. This is when Richardson shoved his stack in from the big blind, making it a total of around 222,000. Lingenfelder then re-shoved and Middleton sent his cards into the muck.

It was a battle of the Bens, with Richardson holding {q-Spades}{j-Spades}, while Lingenfelder held {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}. When the board ran out {2-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{5-Spades}{3-Hearts}{a-Clubs}, Richardson was sent home in 11th place, picking up $6,970 AUD for his trouble.

Antonis Kambouroglou Eliminated in 12th Place ($6,970 AUD)

The action was opened to 20,000 by Antonis Kambouroglou from the cutoff and he was three-bet to 48,000 by Stefan Jedlicka in the big blind. Kambouroglou then went deep into the tank before deciding to simply flat the bet.

When the {7-Spades}{8-Hearts}{10-Spades} flop hit the felt, Jedlicka threw out a bet of 50,000 and Kambouroglou shoved all in for around 190,000. Jedlick quickly made the call and would find himself ahead holding {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds} against Kambouroglou's {a-Spades}{q-Spades}.

Kambouroglou would need a spade to survive but it wasn't meant to be as the turn and river bricked out to see Kambouroglou sent home in 12th place.
