Six Figures For Fox

Level 4 : 300/600, 75 ante

Elio Fox was just the second player to get over the 100,000-chip mark. Fox raised pre flop to 1,400 and Tobias Kuder called from the hijack. The flop came down {J-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} and Fox bet 2,400, Kuder called.

On the turn the {10-Hearts} hit and Fox fired out 5,100 and Kuder called. The river brought the {7-Hearts} and Fox bet 13,500 and Kuder called again. Fox turned over {Q-Hearts}{9-Hearts} for the flopped nuts and Kuder mucked his cards.

Antonio Keeps Winning at Lodden Thinks

Level 4 : 300/600, 75 ante

Antonio Esfandiari can't seem to really do anything wrong here in the $25,000 Challenge at the 2013 Aussie Millions. He's currently at the top of the leader board and just won his fourth game of "Lodden Thinks" in a row.

On this round of the guessing game, Esfandiari asked our reporter a very unique question: How many bananas does our reporter think Joe Hachem could eat in two hours if he's getting paid $10,000 per banana he eats?

After a minute or two of thought, our reporter locked in his number and the bidding began. After some back and forth between Esfandiari and Jeff Rossiter, who was bidding for the table, Esfandiari said, "20."

"Buy," said Rossiter.

Esfandiari then asked our reporter for his number, and the number was revealed at 20.

"Ship it!" yelled Esfandiari with another big smile on his face as he had won again.

Another One For Rubie

Level 4 : 300/600, 75 ante

On the very next hand after Grant Levy folded two pair to him it was Brendon Rubie who took down another pot.

Rubie raised from the hijack and Hoi Cheung and Joe Hachem called from the button and the big blind. The flop brought out {K-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{A-Hearts} and Hachem checked to Rubie who bet 1,800. Cheung made the call and Hachem folded.

The turn brought the {9-Spades} and Rubie fired out 4,800. This was enough to pick up the pot and Rubie jumped up to 66,000 chips.

Levy Folds Two Pair

Level 4 : 300/600, 75 ante

The board read {10-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{Q-Spades} when James Pritchard checked to Grant Levy who bet 2,200. Brendon Rubie called and so did Pritchard.

On the river the {K-Diamonds} popped up and both Pritchard and Levy checked to Rubie who bet 5,050. Both Rubie's opponents folded and Levy showed his {J-Clubs}{10-Clubs}. Rubie took the pot without showing his cards.

Big One For Fox

Level 3 : 200/400, 50 ante

The flop read {J-Spades}{Q-Clubs}{6-Clubs} when Jason Mo bet 6,200 and Elio Fox made the call. The turn brought the {4-Diamonds} and Mo checked after which Fox moved all in. Fox had Mo covered by a big margin but it didn't go to showdown. Mo folded and Fox took down this pot.
