Neilson Keeps the Pressure On

Level 29 : Blinds 100,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

Jennifer Cassell opened to 500,000 from the hijack with KQ and Daniel Neilson three-bet the cutoff to 1,700,000 holding K10. When it got back to Cassell, she called.

A flop of 9104 saw Cassell check-call a bet of 1,000,000 from Neilson to the 2 turn. Again Cassell checked, and again Neilson piled on the pressure with a bet of 1,700,000. Cassell had to give it up.

Dustin Tran Eliminated in 6th Place (A$42,300)

Level 29 : Blinds 100,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Dustin Tran
Dustin Tran

Dustin Tran wasted no time, ripping in 3,500,000 from the small blind. But before the chips had even settled, Jennifer Cassell cold four-bet shoved her towering 7,000,000 stack from the big blind. Bedot, calm as ever, snap-called his 3,600,000 and suddenly, one the biggest pot of the tournament was live—with three players all-in and dreaming.

Dustin Tran: QJ All in
Reece Bedot: AA All in
Jennifer Cassell: 88

Aces for Bedot. The Snowmen for Cassell. And Tran? Armed with paint and hoping to scribble all over their dreams.

The flop came down 539, and the tension hit a fever pitch as the rail roared. Tran got no help. Cassell picked up a glimmer with a backdoor straight draw. Then the 6 hit the turn—no good for Tran, who was now drawing dead. Cassell picked up a gutter, but Bedot's nut diamond held all the power.

The J on the river changed nothing.

Tran was sent packing in sixth. Cassell took a hit. And Bedot? He rocketed up the leaderboard!

Lees Staying Alive

Level 29 : Blinds 100,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

Reece Bedot made it 500,000 from under the gun and Johan Lees shoved 2,800,000 from the small blind. Bedot called.

Johan Lees: QQ All in
Reece Bedot: A7

Lees was at risk but had the best hand, which further improved on the 7Q10 flop with top set. A K on the turn did gave Bedot a gutshot, but the 7 rived filled up Lees and kept him alive.

Cassell Survives With a Chop

Level 29 : Blinds 100,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

Jennifer Cassell ripped from the small blind for 2,700,000 and Daniel Neilson called from the big blind.

Jennifer Cassell: Q5 All in
Daniel Neilson: KQ

Cassell was in trouble and was dominated by the hand of Neilson, and looked to be heading for the rail on the 10A6 flop. A 6 on the turn brought around some chop possibilties, and the 10 on the river did double-pair the board, meaning both players chopped it up.

On tne 8Q2 flop, Bedot check-called a bet of 300,000 from Cassell to see the 4 hit the turn. Again Bedot checked, but this time he folded after Cassell fired 1,700,000.

Jennifer Cassell

Jennifer Cassell shoved from the small blind for 2,200,000 and Daniel Neilson had a tough decision in the big blind.

"Ahh I don't know, how much is it?" Neilson asked with a grin. Eventually, Neilson did call.

Jennifer Cassell: J5 All in
Daniel Neilson: AA

Chuckles were heard around the table at Neilson's slowroll but Cassell's rail erupted on the 9Q2 flop as she picked up a flush draw. A 10 on the turn gave her an open-ended straight draw, but it was a case of too many outs as the 2 river bricked off, ending Cassell's run in 5th.
