He was eliminated from the $100,000 Challenge earlier in the day, and then he jumped into the Main Event only to fall on a nasty flop. We're not sure of the preflop action, but on the flop, Abdalla bet 3,600, Steven Tabb raised to 7,500, and Abdalla moved all in. Tabb called with the for the flopped nuts with a flush redraw, which was well out in front of Abdalla's .
The turn left Abdalla drawing dead, and he watched helplessly as the river put an end to his 2015 Aussie Millions Main Event.
Tom Grigg had been nursing a shorter stack much of the day, and he recently got his last 16,600 all in preflop only to find himself in dire straits against David Zhao.

"That's alright," Grigg said of the flop, which gave him chop outs to a wheel. Unfortunately for him, the chop never materialized as the blanked on the turn followed by the on the river. With that, we bid adieu to Mr. Grigg.
Simon Deadman can't stay out of the pots and the updates right now. He's been playing a very trappy game when in need of chips the most and it's working. Earlier he defended his big blind versus Casey Kastle and check-called three streets (including all in on the river) for a double up, and he just did the same.
A player in the cut-off raised to 1,300 and Deadman peeled. The board ran and he check-called bets of 1,600, 4,400 and 16,000 all in holding . It was good as his opponent could only muster .
Simon Deadman has done a lot of ducking and diving to stay alive today. He was just all in again and survived with 23,500 to his name.
He was under the gun and battling with a player in the next seat along. The two had made it to the turn with a board reading . Deadman checked to face a 3,000 bet that he treated to a check-raise all in for 15,075. His opponent though for a couple of minutes before releasing his hand.
We noticed Chad Awerbuch had disappeared from Table 31. A quick check with Sean Giesbrecht confirmed that Awerbuch had hit the rail courtesy of Dan "jungleman12" Cates.
According to Giesbrecht, Awerbuch had made a straight on the river, which was the same card that gave Cates a flush. The rest, as they say, is history.
"Am I good enough to fold this?" asked Shyam Srinivasan out loud to himself on the river in a hand.
He was heads up and the board read with around 12,000 in the middle. Srinivasan was under the gun and checked to face an all in bet of 12,300 from his opponent on the button.
After a few minutes the Canadian folded while flashing the for the second nut flush. "Have to trust my instincts!" he commented. Someone who's won nearly $8 million online probably has pretty good instincts in those types of spots.
