Charlie Leiataua Eliminated in 13th Place (A$5,760)
Level 29
: Blinds 100,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Michael O'Grady just won a huge flip to give him a big chip lead and thin down the field by one!
O'Grady made it 600,000 from under the gun and Charlie Leiataua three-bet from the button to around 2,000,000. O'Grady then shoved for over 15,000,000, and after some time, Leiataua called off his stack of around 10,000,000.
Charlie Leiataua: Q♥Q♣
Michael O'Grady: A♠K♣
It was a tournament-defining flip for both players and one that O'Grady took a firm hold of on the 2♦K♦J♣ flop as he paired his king. A 3♣ on the turn left Leiataua with just two outs and one chance to find them, but he couldn't do it as the 10♥ dropped on the river.
Delight for O'Grady, despair for Leiataua!
