Queens No Good For Hata

Level 8 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Hata had flopped top set on a spade flush draw board and Yake Wu got there with {a-Spades}{5-Spades} to eliminate the Brit.

Fast Rivers Van Hoof; A$25k PLO Champion Eliminated

Level 8 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

On a {5-Spades}{3-Spades}{k-Clubs}{j-Clubs} board, and with 20,000 chips in the middle, Jorryt van Hoof checked to Dietrich Fast who shoved from the button.

Van Hoof sat with 38,000 behind and took his time with his decision.

"I don't think I can fold," said Van Hoof. "And I like a night off..."

Eventually he flung his chips in the middle to call. Fast showed {a-Clubs}{3-Clubs} for a pair and a flush draw, but was behind the {k-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} of the Dutchman.

The river {q-Clubs} however ensured the German rivered a flush and eliminated Van Hoof from the tournament.

"I didn't see how much you had!" said Fast. "I thought you had 22,000. I'm not shoving 40,000."

"Silent in the hand and a joker out of the hand?" said Van Hoof.

"I'm serious!" replied Fast.

Pots for Huber and Yan

Level 8 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

On a flop of {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{5-Hearts}, Dan Smith checked and called a bet of 3,000 by table neighbor Stefan Huber. The {2-Hearts} turn and {4-Hearts} river was checked and Huber tabled {k-Diamonds}{3-Spades} for a straight, Smith mucked.

One table over, Michael Zhang raised to 3,200 from under the gun and David Yan three-bet to 9,500 in the cutoff. Zhang tossed in the additional chips and they headed to the {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} flop on which Zhang check-called a bet of 6,600. Zhang also checked the {7-Hearts} on the turn and a bet of 12,000 by Yan did the trick to force a fold.

Ace-High Enough for O'Dwyer to Bust Fox

Level 8 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

On a {7-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{4-Spades}{5-Spades} board, Elio Fox moved all in for 16,000 from the small blind into a pot of 25,000.

Steve O'Dwyer was in the big blind thinking over his decision, and eventually slid a single chip into the middle to call.

Fox was already getting to his feet, tabling {9-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} for a missed straight draw, and O'Dwyer's {a-Spades}{k-Spades} was enough for him to take down the pot.
