[Removed:17] Eliminated in 6th Place (AU$220,000)

Level 24 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante
[Removed:17] - 6th Place
[Removed:17] - 6th Place

New Zealand's [Removed:17] open-shoved for 780,000 under the gun and received a call from Mervin Chan in the cutoff. The button and both blinds folded and the cards were turned up.

Yan: {8-Diamonds}{8-Spades}
Chan: {K-Spades}{K-Diamonds}

It was a bad spot for the SuperNova Elite as he had run pocket eights into a bigger pocket pair. According to the PokerNews Odds Calculator, Chan was an 81.31% favorite and Yan only had a 18.23% chance of survival. That dropped to 13.23% on the {2-Spades}{6-Hearts}{7-Hearts} flop, which gave him a running straight draw, but the useless {3-Hearts} turn bumped him down to just 4.55%.

Yan needed an eight on the river to survive, but it wasn't in the cards as the {7-Clubs} peeled off. With that, Yan was eliminated in sixth place for AU$220,000.

Chan Continues to Climb

Level 24 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

Joseph Cabret opened for 85,000 on the button and received calls from Mervin Chan and Jarrod Glennon in the small and big blind respectively. Two checks on the {3-Spades}{k-Spades}{5-Diamonds} flop put action on Cabret, and he continued for 140,000. Only Chan called and then both players checked the {4-Clubs} turn and {3-Hearts} river.

Cabret tabled the {A-Diamonds}{5-} for fives and threes, but it was no good as Chan held {K-}{J-} for a bigger two pair.

Ace on the River for Antonius

Level 24 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

Jarrod Glennon limped in from the small blind, Patrik Antonius checked from the big blind, and the dealer fanned {2-Spades}{8-Clubs}{9-Clubs}. Glennon bet the minimum (40,000), Antonius called, and the turn was the {9-Diamonds}. Glennon fired 115,000, and Antonius called.

The {a-Spades} completed the board, Glennon checked for the first time, and Antonius tossed out 175,000. Glennon called. Antonius showed {a-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} for aces and nines, and Glennon mucked his hand.
