Richard Ashby Eliminated in 5th Place ($11,520)

Christian Zetzsche

Level 18

Pot Limit Omaha

Jarryd Godena won a small pot against chip leader Stephen Chidwick in a battle of the blinds and the next hand, Richard Ashby gave up his blind. Then, Godena min-raised to 10,000 from the button and Ashby flat-called with only 7,000 chips behind out of the small blind. Peter Aristidou also called out of the big blind and the flop came .

Ashby moved all in and both opponents called, Aristidou checked the turn. Godena now fired a bet of 35,000 to isolate successfully and they turned them over:

Ashby: for two pair, queens and jacks as well as plenty of outs to improve to a full house
Godena: for a straight

The river blanked and that sent Ashby to the rail in 5th place for A$11,520.

Chidwick Runs over the Table

Christian Zetzsche

Level 18

Stud

Stephen Chidwick bet 10,000 on fourth street, fifth street was checked and Richard Ashby then bet sixth street for 20,000, which Chidwick called. The chip leader then bet on seventh street and Ashby called to muck versus two pair.

Chidwick: /
Ashby: / / muck

Stud 8

Oliver Gill leaned over to Chidwick and said "it feels like in the two days you haven't lost a pot," and indeed the Brit kept amassing chips left and right. In another hand against Ashby, he bet fourth and sixth street to enforce a fold from his opponent.

Ashby: / / muck
Chidwick: /

Aristidou At Risk

[user127999]

Level 18

Razz

Peter Aristidou's stack is in the danger zone now as it's half the size it was at the start of the day.

He recently lost a Razz hand to the aggressive Richard Ashby, calling when Ashby competed and bet on fourth, only to fold when he paired up on fifth.
