Hand-for-Hand Continues

Level 13 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante

There has been no bubble bursting hand as yet. We will be out on the tournament floor until we're in the money as we don't want to miss the vital hand.

McKenzie McBig Stack

Jesse McKenzie has a considerably larger stack than before the dinner break. Apparently McKenzie managed to take a large portion of Jamie Pickering's stack when he called him down on all three streets holding {9-}{9-} on a fairly stacked board.

Bloom Busted for Dinner

Level 13 : 1,200/2,400, 300 ante

We popped into the Aussie Millions welcome party on the break to, you know, represent the company. Tony Bloom was in attendance and he told us that he busted just before the break. This is just a warm up for the renowned sports bettor who plans to play in the $100k and $250k buy-in events. As the 2004 winner of the Main Event, he also has an invitation to the 10 year anniversary Champion of Champions invitational event. The winner of this event will win a golden ticket that free-roll them in to all Main Events for the rest of their lives.

Dinner Time

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

The dinner break is upon us. After 8.5 hours of play we've all built up an appetite. A probable lethargic reporting team will be back at roughly 10pm where we'll burst through the bubble and get as close to the final table as possible.

Jedlicka Using His Stack

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Stefan Jedlicka still has way more than 200,000 chips and is using them well, to the cost of Darren Kramer's stack.

The South African raised from the cut-off and was called by a player on the button and Jedlicka in the big blind. The flop fell {a-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{4-Clubs} and the action was checked to Kramer who continued for 8,000. The button folded but the chip leader check-raised to 17,700 to force a fold from the frustrated looking Kramer, who dropped to 35,000 chips.

Come to Puppa

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Tanya Puppa needed a hand in good spot to double up, and she found it. Jamie Pickering opened to 5,200 from the button and Puppa three-bet all-in for 24,300 from the big blind. Call.

Puppa: {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}
Pickering: {a-Hearts}{j-Spades}

The board ran {k-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{2-Spades} making Puppa a set. Pickering tapped the table in acknowledgment and dropped to 90,000 chips. — MC
