Team Australia Eliminated

Tony G
Tony G

The spirited comeback of the Australian side has come up just a bit short. Still in the PLO round, Tony G, playing for Team Australia, took a raised flop with Team Greece. "Me and the Greek," remarked the G.

Greece checked and called a bet on a flop of {6-Hearts} {9-Hearts} {6-Diamonds}. Greece also checked the turn. The G seemed to way his options before moving all of Australia's chips into the pot. Greece beat him in with a call, tabling {Q-Diamonds} {j-Hearts} {9-Clubs} {9-Spades} for a flopped full house, nines full of sixes. Tony G showed down {A-Hearts} {A-Clubs} {6-Clubs} {2-Clubs} for three sixes.

It was a disaster for Team Australia, leaving them looking for either the case 6 or one of the last two aces. The river was neither -- it was a jack, to send the passionate Aussie side to the rail in 4th place.
