Doug Polk
Doug Polk

Doug Polk has been eliminated. He was all in with {Q-}{Q-} against Martin Jacobson's {A-}{K-}. Unfortunately for Polk, a king on the flop caused the final damage and his 2014 Aussie Millions Main Event was done.

Power Converters

Level 3 : 100/200, 25 ante

Patrik Antonius opened for a raise to 550 in early position, and Rachid Ben Cherif three-bet to 1,600 on his direct left. The action folded back to Antonius, who called, and the dealer fanned {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{3-Spades}.

Antonius checked, Ben Cherif, known as "SkaiWalkurrr" online, continued for 1,800, and Antonius called.

The turn was the {4-Diamonds}, Antonius checked again, and Ben Cherif fired out another bet. This time it was for 3,000, and Antonius opted to fold.

Healy Aims for Another Aussie Millions Final Table

Level 3 : 100/200, 25 ante

Back in 2012, Perth's Patrick Healy finished fifth in this very event for AU$300,000. It was just his second score behind a seventh-place finish in the 2008 Joe Hachem and Shane Warne Charity Poker Tournament. Since then, Healy has went on to amass more than a dozen cashes and now sits on more than $409,000 in lifetime tournament earnings. If all goes according to plan, Healy will add to that here in the 2014 Aussie Millions Main Event.

In a recent hand, a player in the cutoff opened for 600 and Healy called from the button. Both blinds folded, the flop came down {7-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}, and the cutoff checked. Healy qucikly bet 600 and it was enough to win the pot. Not a great hand, but a good excuse to update all you Healy fans on his chip stack.

"That is Absolutely Filth"

Level 3 : 100/200, 25 ante

With 10,675 in the pot and a board reading {4-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{j-Spades}{3-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}, a player in the big blind bet 7,000 into Tony Hachem, the brother of 2005 World Series of Poker Main Event champ Joe Hachem. "Really, 7k?" Hachem asked incredulously.

Hachem had to see it and tossed in the chips, which prompted his opponent to table the {a-Clubs}{10-Clubs} for the nut flush. Hachem was disgusted and wasn't afraid to vent his frustration, "That is absolutely filth."

Meanwhile, Australian poker legend Leo Boxell has been eliminated from the Main Event.

Schemion Sends One Packing

Level 3 : 100/200, 25 ante

We missed the action, but 2013 Global Poker Index Player of the Year Ole Schemion just recorded a knockout over on Table 32.

The young German held {a-Hearts}{3-Hearts} against an opponent's {k-Clubs}{q-Spades}, and when we reached the table the board had just been completed {a-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}.

Schemion happily pulled in the pot, and now sits with 45,000 chips.

Smith Can't Make Another Flush

Level 3 : 100/200, 25 ante

Three players took a flop of {2-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{a-Diamonds} in a raised pot, including Jarod Ludemann and Dan Smith. One player checked, Ludemann fired out 1,300, and only Smith called.

The turn was the {6-Diamonds}, Ludemann led for 2,200, and Smith made the call.

The {j-Diamonds} completed the board, bringing a possible diamond flush, and Ludemann checked for the first time. Smith thought for a minute or two before reaching for chips, then tossed 7,500 in front of him.

Ludemann shifted in his chair, furrowing his brow and studying the board. He flipped chips in one hand, snapping them together ever so often, and finally committed enough to make the call.

Smith quickly tabled {q-Hearts}{8-Hearts} for a busted flush draw, and Ludemann showed {a-Spades}{k-Spades} for a pair of aces, winning the pot.
