Dennis Wilke confirmed the elimination of Henning Wendlandt and Tatjana Zizic has also already ran out of chips. Zizic had walked over to Jan Suchanek and mentioned a kings versus aces setup before leaving the tournament area. Suchanek himself had been running riot on his table before putting Martin Finger to the test, the latter called and was good to boost his stack nicely.

Claas Segebrecht slightly overbet the pot with 3,200 on a board of 
from middle position. An opponent on the button called and the completed the board. Segebrecht wasted little time before betting 7,500. His opponent went into the tank for about four minutes before a clock was called. The time ran all the way through, killing the hand, and Segebrecht took the pot without showdown.
At another table, Paul Hoefer got to the river heads up with 
on the felt. A player bet 6,000 into him and Hoefer jammed for 15,625. His opponent called with

Felipe Ramos is making the most of his first trip to Melbourne for the Aussie Millions, and we grabbed a quick word with him during the break.
"Melbourne is very nice," he said. "It's become one of my favorite cities in the world; level with Barcelona and Amsterdam. I think that the city has a really great mix - there's a lot of activities to do but then also a lot of green spaces, which I like very much.
"The people are really nice and that's a very good thing to have whenever you go to a poker stop. The beaches as well! Sometimes you go to poker venues where the only option is to be stuck in the poker room all day. That's not very healthy I think for people who have to think for a living!
"I like living the poker lifestyle, and this city offers the poker lifestyle that I love."
Ramos has played a couple of events, including the $25,000 Challenge and a fourth place in the 8-Game.
"Fourth was disappointing for me, because I entered the final table as chip leader. It's my favorite format of poker. But I'm now happy to be playing here in my first Aussie Millions Main Event."
And how is his first taste of the Aussie Millions Main Event going?
"I could have a better table for starters! There are three pros including Kitty Kuo [who finished 3rd in the $25,000 Challenge]," said Ramos. "There are some other decent recreational players as well so my table is strong.
"I didn't have a very good start; I lost over half my stack. But now I'm back to half stack and I'm ready to go!"
