Michael Egan Eliminated in 13th Place (AU$82,000)

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

Clinton Taylor raised and instantly called the shove of Michael Egan from one seat over with both players holding near identical stacks.

Clinton Taylor: {K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}
Michael Egan: {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}

The board came {10-Hearts}{8-Spades}{4-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} and the stacks were counted. Taylor had been all in for 910,000 and Egan had one ante more.

In the very next hand, Egan was forced all in for 5,000 and Taylor raised to isolate.

Michael Egan: {8-Diamonds}{7-Spades}
Clinton Taylor: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}

The {10-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} flop gave Egan an open-ender, but the chip and a chair miracle never came with the {5-Diamonds} turn and {10-Clubs} river both being blanks. Egan has been eliminated in 13th place and takes home AU$82,000.

Jam and No Call

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

Andrew Hinrichsen raised to 70,000 and Bryn Kenney three-bet the button to 210,000. Matthew Wakeman four-bet to 435,000 to force out Hinrichsen and Kenney then jammed to claim the pot without resistance from Wakeman.

Over on the other outer table, David Wang opened to 70,000 and Robert Glasspool three-bet to 280,000 in the big blind, Wang called. On the {A-Hearts}{J-Spades}{3-Hearts} flop, Glasspool shoved for 545,000 and Wang folded.

Anthony Kingston Eliminated in 14th Place (AU$82,000)

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

Anthony Kingston moved all in for 205,000 from the button and was looked up by Mike Del Vecchio.

Anthony Kingston: {7-Clubs}{8-Clubs}
Mike Del Vecchio: {a-Diamonds}{9-Spades}

The flop gave both players a pair coming {2-Clubs}{8-Spades}{9-Hearts} and the turn {7-Diamonds} improved Kingston to two pair as he looked to stay alive in the Main Event.

The river, however, was the {2-Spades}, counterfeiting the at-risk player and sending more chips Del Vecchio's way as Kingston was eliminated in 14th place for AU$82,000

Simon Chahine Eliminated in 15th Place (AU$82,000)

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

It folded to Simon Chahine on the button who moved all in for 360,000. Hamish Crawshaw, who had just won a big pot off the Australian, was in the big blind and called putting Chahine at the risk.

Simon Chahine: {a-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}
Hamish Crawshaw: {a-Spades}{7-Clubs}

The clear home favourite was roared on as the flop came {6-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{a-Clubs} giving Chahine two pair. However, there were gasps as the {7-Diamonds} rolled off the turn giving Crawshaw back the lead.

The river was the {q-Diamonds} and Chahine was eliminated.

Wakeman Leads the Outer Tables

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

Clinton Taylor raised to 65,000 and Michael Egan three-bet to 165,000. Taylor four-bet all in and Egan asked for a count, then folded.

Over on the other table, Gyeong Byeong Lee defended the big blind against Bjorn Ostby. On the {4-Spades}{3-Hearts}{2-Spades}{5-Diamonds} turn, Lee bet 100,000 and Ostby called. The {10-Clubs} came on the river and Lee bet 500,000, Ostby folded instantly.

Chahine Folds to Crawshaw River Jam

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

Simon Chahine opened to 65000 and got calls from Hamish Crawshaw and Mike Del Vecchio.

Del Vecchio checked a {4-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{a-Hearts} flop to Chahine who continued for 90,000. Crawshaw called and Del Vecchio folded.

The turn was the {8-Hearts} and Chahine check-called 140,000.

The river was the {2-Diamonds}. Chahine checked again and Crawshaw moved all in for 390,000. Chahine had just under 450,000 remaining and cut a frustrated figure at the table, snapping his chips together before eventually folding.

Andrew Theakstone Eliminated in 16th Place (AU$82,000)

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

First to act, Bjorn Ostby made it 65,000 to go and Andrew Theakstone in the big blind three-bet to 200,000 with a stack of around 675,000. Ostby moved all in and Theakstone called it off.

Andrew Theakstone: {A-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}
Bjorn Ostby: {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}

The {9-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} flop gave Theakstone an additional flushdraw, but he needed the diamond when the {K-Clubs} followed on the turn. It wasn't meant to be for Theakstone, as he bricked off with the {3-Hearts} river and headed to the rail in 16th place for AU$82,000.

Del Vecchio Continues to Dominate

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

On the feature table has sometimes appeared that Mike Del Vecchio has been the only player winning pots.

He's chipped up to the tune of a million chips since the dinner break including a small pot against Simon Chahine.

Del Vecchio limped the small blind and Chahine checked. Del Vecchio bet 30,000 on the {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{5-Spades} flop and his opponent called.

The pair checked the {9-Hearts} turn and the river was the {4-Hearts}. Del Vecchio bet 75,000 and Chahine quickly folded.

More for Heaver and Hinrichsen

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

Andrew Theakstone was moved over to the other outer table and proceeded to raise-fold twice, then move all in to claim the blinds and antes. Greg Heaver profited from that the most as he added some more chips to his growing tower.

Over on the other table, Matthew Wakeman took on Andrew Hinrichsen. The latter check-raised the {6-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{K-Clubs} turn from 150,000 to 475,000 and Wakeman reluctantly folded.
