From under the gun, Anthony Legg raised to 80,000. Alex Lynskey then three-bet to 175,000 from the cutoff seat, and play folded over to Brian Rast in the big blind. Rast put in a cold four-bet to 450,000, and Legg got out of the way. Lynskey studied for a little bit, then folded, and Rast won the pot.

Big-Time Double for Legg

Brian Rast opened for 65,000 from the cutoff seat, and then Anthony Legg reraised to 200,000 on the button. Rast called, and the dealer fanned the {7-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} flop. Rast checked, and Legg bet 125,000. Rast check-raised all in, and Legg quickly called to put himself at risk for 1.18 million total on the flop. He had the {7-Hearts}{7-Clubs} for top set, and Rast held the {4-Spades}{3-Spades} for bottom pair and a gutshot straight draw.

The {3-Clubs} turn meant Rast could only hope for a chop, but the {10-Spades} river couldn't produce it. Legg won the pot and boomed his way to over 2.8 million in chips.

Lynskey Calls Flop, Leads Turn

Level 24 : 15,000/30,000, 5,000 ante

From the button, Brian Rast raised to 65,000. Anthony Legg called out of the small blind, and Alex Lynskey called from the big blind. The dealer dealt the {J-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} flop, and action was checked to Rast. He bet 100,000, Legg folded, and Lynskey called.

The turn paired the board with the {3-Clubs}, and Lynskey opted to lead out with a bet of 145,000. Rast folded, and Lynskey won the pot.

Stavropoulos Shoves Turn On Lynskey

Level 24 : 15,000/30,000, 5,000 ante

With around 420,000 in the middle, Alex Lynskey checked the {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}{7-Spades} flop, and Manny Stavropoulos bet 225,000. Lynskey called, and the turn was the {2-Spades}. After Lynskey checked with a stack of 1.4 million, Stavropoulos quickly announced that he was all in for 1.13 million. Lynskey folded, and Stavropoulos won the pot.

Raiden Kan Eliminated in 10th Place (AU$95,000)

Level 24 : 15,000/30,000, 5,000 ante
Raiden Kan - 10th Place
Raiden Kan - 10th Place

Well, that escalated quickly.

The hand began innocently enough when action folded to Macau's Raiden Kan in the small blind and he raised to 90,000. Lennart Uphoff defended from the big blind, and then both players checked the {a-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{10-Clubs} flop as well as the {2-Diamonds} turn.

When the {K-Hearts} completed the board on the river, Kan checked and Uphoff bet a modest 65,000. That is when Kan woke up with a check-raise in a big way. He moved all in for roughly 1.2 million, which elicited a quick call from Uphoff.

Kan knew immediately he picked a bad spot to shove with his {q-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}, and indeed he did as Uphoff had rivered a flush with the {10-Hearts}{8-Hearts}. Just like that, the start-of-the-day chip lead hit the rail in 10th place.

Lyndaker Folds the River

Level 24 : 15,000/30,000, 5,000 ante

"Cash game I call there," said Richard Lyndaker to Lennart Uphoff after he folded to a third barrel on the river.

Uphoff had raised 65,000 from the button and bet 60,000, 120,000 and 350,000 on each street of a {k-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{5-Hearts}{j-Hearts} board. Lyndaker was in the big blind and called all the way until the river where he looked very tempted to call but placed his cards into the muck very deliberately, maybe in case he did something silly.
