Bonomo Falls to Kurganov
Level 3
: 100/200, 25 ante
Igor Kurganov's life has just gotten a lot easier after he busted the player to his direct left, Justin Bonomo.
Bonomo was down to 11,525 and he got them all in pre flop in a raising war with the Russian-born German, who resides in London but is hardly ever there.
Bonomo: 
Kurganov: 
The board ran out 
to make Kurganov two pair.
Don't feel too bad for Bonomo as he has a big day coming up on Saturday, sitting 4th (of 8) in the AU$100,000 Challenge final table and is already guaranteed AU$330,000.

Glazier Takes Her Leave From 2015 Aussie Millions Main Event
Level 3
: 100/200, 25 ante
"All in and a call Table 47," a dealer bellowed. We rushed over just in time to see local favorite Jackie Glazier all in for her last 4,650 and in a dominating position over Sean Keeton.
Keeton: 
Glazier: 
Both players held an ace, but Glazier's kicker had her way out in front. The 
flop was safe enough, but then disaster struck after the dealer burned and turned the 
. Glazier sat stoically awaiting the river, which ended up being the useless 
. Glazier quietly collected her things and made her way to the exit.
Meanwhile, Didier Guerin was also eliminated from the tournament. He got the last of his chips in on the river with a board reading 
, but mucked when his opponent tabled the for a full house.

Ung Lays It Down
Level 3
: 100/200, 25 ante
Doug Polk checked the 
flop, and the next player checked as well to put the action on Senh Ung. Ung bet 1,700, the next player called, the fifth player in action folded, Polk called, and the other player folded.
With three players still in, the dealer brought the 
to the turn. After Polk checked, Ung bet 3,700. The next player raised to 7,800, and Polk folded. After a bit of thought, Ung also gave it up, and his opponent won the hand. The player showed Ung a set of sixes, and Ung claimed to fold pocket queens.

Gruissem Chips Up
Level 3
: 100/200, 25 ante
Philipp Gruissem has entered the 2015 Aussie Millions Main Event and gotten right to work, already chipping up to 42,000 from the starting stack of 30,000.
On a recent hand, there was a raise to 500 from middle position, a reraise to 1,500 from the player in the cutoff seat, and then Gruissem put in a four-bet to 3,600 from the small blind. Play folded back to the player in the cutoff seat, and he made the call to see the 
flop. Gruissem led with a bet of 4,500, and his opponent folded.

"Why Can't You Just Be a Good Boy and Die?"
Level 3
: 100/200, 25 ante
Last week, Alex Trevallion won the AU$25,000 Challenge, a tournament that blew away expectations by attracting 104 entrants and creating a prize pool of AU$2,496,000, for AU$645,150. Then, yesterday he made the final table of the AU$100,000 Challenge, which will play down to a winner later this week. Needless to say, it's been a heck of a week for the Australia online pro, who happens to share a similar name to Sean Bean's character in the 1995 James Bond flick Goldeneye (Bean's character is Alec Trevelyan, who uttered the iconic line in the title).
Trevallion is in today's field and looking for more Aussie Millions success. In a recent hand, there was around 3,000 in the pot and a board reading 
when a raising war broke out between Trevallion and an unknown opponent. Trevallion ended up getting his last 18,100 all in holding the for trip sevens with a king kicker, which bested the [7xc5x] of his opponent. the 
river was safe for Trevallion, and he was pushed a welcome double.

Three More $100,000 Challenge Players In
Level 3
: 100/200, 25 ante
It was expected that most, if not all, the $100,000 Challenge entrants that played yesterday would appear in the Main Event today.
Erik Seidel, Tony Bloom and Tobias Reinkemeier are three of the latest to show up. Reinkemeier busted midway through the day yesterday; Bloom fell a couple short of the money, but Seidel is still in the hunt in what must one of his favourite tournaments. Why? Because it's the fourth time he's made the money in the event and it's made him, at least AU$3million over the years.

Here Comes Ole
Level 3
: 100/200, 25 ante
The 2015 Aussie Millions AU$100,000 Challenge is currently on hiatus. That's because tournament organizers wanted to offer the final nine players a chance to play in the Aussie Millions Main Event. One man taking advantage is actually the chip leader of the $100,000 Challenge Ole Schemion.
In a recent hand, there was around 2,000 in the pot and a flop of 
when Schemion checked from early position and his opponent in middle position bet 1,275. Schemion then check-raised to 2,550, his opponent pushed back with a three-bet to 6,550, and Schemion opted to call.
When the dealer burned and turned the , Schemion checked and stared down his opponent, who bet a hefty 11,000. Schemion thought long and hard before making the call and then checked for a third time on the 
river. His opponent slowed down by doing the same and Schemion showed the 
for a full house. It was good as his opponent had been firing with the
