Lennart Uphoff
Lennart Uphoff

Lennart Uphoff has added more chips to his stack after getting a couple of streets of value out of pocket kings.

He raised to 45,000 from the hijack and was only called by Richard Lyndaker on the button. The flop fanned {2-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{q-Diamonds} and Uphoff continued for 55,000. Call. Uphoff bet another 120,000 on the {8-Hearts} turn and was called again. The board completed with the {j-Diamonds} and both players checked.

Uphoff opened {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} and raked in the pot after Lyndaker mucked.

Sarkiss Osalian Eliminated in 13th Place (AU$70,000)

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Sarkiss Osalian - 13th place
Sarkiss Osalian - 13th place

Lennart Uphoff sat confused and not sure what to do after his 35,000 under the gun raise was reraised all in for 1,008,000 by Sarkiss Osalian from the small blind.

The German had 1,052,000 so the call was effectively for his tournament life. He called and two million chip flip was about to commence.

Uphoff: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}
Osalian: {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds}

The board ran {10-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds} to send Osalian home and the massive pot the way of the German, who still looked confused at the way the hand played out.

Terence Clee Eliminated in 14th Place (AU$70,000)

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Terence Clee - 15th Place
Terence Clee - 15th Place

Terence Clee limped under the gun and was met by a raise to 66,000 from Joel Douaglin on the button. The blinds both folded, Clee just called, and the flop came down {3-Clubs}{9-Spades}{q-Spades}. Clee was first to act and led out for 100,000, which Douaglin min-raised to 200,000.

Clee thought long and hard before calling, which left him 443,000 behind. After the dealer burned and turned the {K-Clubs}, Clee checked and Douaglin took his time before sliding out 200,000. Clee thought equally as long and then committed about half his remaining chips to make the call.

When the {10-Hearts} completed the board on the river, Clee took about 30 seconds before stacking his chips and placing them in the middle.

"I call," Douaglin said excitedly and rolled over the {a-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} for the rivered nuts. Clee stood up and went to muck his cards. Since it was an all-in situation the dealer was obliged to show his hand, and she revealed Clee had missed a flush draw with the {5-Spades}{7-Spades}.

Clee exited in 14th place for AU$70,000 while Douaglin was pushed the robust pot.

David Longmate Eliminated in 15th Place (AU$70,000)

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
David Longmate - 15th Place
David Longmate - 15th Place

From the cutoff seat, David Longmate raised all in for 243,000. Brian Rast made the call on the button, and everyone else folded.

At risk, Longmate showed the {A-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}. Rast tabled the {K-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}, and that was much to the displeasure of Longmate's crew on the rail.

"Jesus, f***ing hell," muttered Paul Newey as he leaned over the rail to get a closer look at the hand.

"Gotta get lucky again!" shouted Rob Schiffbauer standing right next to Newey.

Despite all the hope his rail had, the {K-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} flop didn't do too much for Longmate. Rast improved to top set, and Longmate was left needing a gutshot straight or a backdoor flush.

"We need a jack," said Newey.

"Jack or backdoor hearts," added Schiffbauer.

The turn was the {2-Hearts}, and that provided a glimmer of hope for Longmate as he looked for the double.

"Heart!" yelled Schiffbauer.

The river was red, but it was the {5-Diamonds}. With that, Longmate was gone in 15th place, and he took home AU$70,000. Rast increased his stack to over 2.85 million.

"We had a fun sweat!" said Schiffbauer as he patted Longmate on the back when he made his way over. "Oh well."

Rast Keeps Winning

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Brian Rast
Brian Rast

From the cutoff seat, Manny Stavropoulos raised to 33,000. He was called in two spots — David Longmate in the small blind, and Brian Rast in the big blind — before the dealer presented the {Q-Spades}{4-Clubs}{2-Hearts} flop. After Longmate and Rast checked, Stavropoulos fired a continuation bet of 55,000. Longmate folded, but Rast called.

The turn was the {8-Hearts}, and both players checked to see the {5-Diamonds} land on the river. Rast led with a wager of 130,000, and Stavropoulos quickly folded.

Osalian Doubles Through Barer

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Defending champion Ami Barer's Day 4 charge has been halted slightly after he doubled up Sarkiss Osalian to drop to 1.45million.

They were heads up to an {8-Clubs}{3-Spades}{2-Clubs}{6-Spades} turn where Barer raised to 173,000 after Osalian had bet 76,000. Osalian called and then called all in for 314,000 on the {4-Diamonds} river.

"Set?" asked Barer.

Osalian answered by opening {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds} for top set, beating out Barer's {2-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} for two pair.

Andrew Chen Eliminated in 16th Place (AU$55,000)

Level 21 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Andrew Chen - 16th
Andrew Chen - 16th

Anthony Legg has scored another knockout. After elimination the legendary Phil Ivey last level, Legg has followed it up by eliminating another tough competitor in Andrew Chen.

It happened when Legg opened for 35,000 from the cutoff and a short-stacked Chen shoved all in for approximately 165,000 from the small blind. The big blind folded, Legg made the call, and the cards were flipped over.

Chen: {a-Clubs}{j-Clubs}
Legg: {k-Clubs}{q-Spades}

Chen got it in good, but Legg was drawing to two live cards. Much to Chen's dismay, Legg paired one on the {q-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{9-Spades} flop. The {10-Spades} turn was a good card for Chen as he picked up an up-and-down straight draw, but he couldn't connect as the {5-Spades} blanked on the river.

Chen takes home AU$55,000 for his 16th-place finish.
