Final Table Stacks & Photo

Level 26 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Kiavash Arbabi Eliminated in 10th Place (A$5,000); Joseph Antar Eliminated in 9th Place (A$6,500)

Level 26 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Kiavash Arbabi has been eliminated by Adnan Al-Maliki. Al-Maliki put Arbabi all-in on a flop of {9-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{6-Spades}. Arbabi was in the tank and eventually called. "You have an ace, you're good", said Al-Maliki.

Arbabi: {a-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}
Al-Maliki: {j-Hearts}{9-Hearts}

Arbabi was ahead, but the {9-Spades} turn was crushing and he is out in 10th place.

On the other table, Joseph Antar was up against John Bogdanovski and ran out of chips in the process. With those two eliminations, we are onto the final table.

Bogdanovski Over 5 Million

Level 26 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Adnan Al-Maliki has lost a couple of big hands to John Bogdanovski, handing Bogdanovski the largest stack of the event so far.

Grant Levy Eliminated in 11th Place ($A5,000)

Level 26 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Grant Levy
Grant Levy

Grant Levy had been careful with his stack all day long, just waiting for that one good double up, but it didn't come. The last of his chips went to Michael Tran, who had {a-}{10-} versus Levy's {k-}{10-}.

The board brought no help for Levy and the Australian Hall of Famer was eliminated.

Level: 26

Blinds: 30,000/60,000

Ante: 60,000

Gergis Doubles

Level 25 : 20,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

[Removed:271] was all-in with pocket nines versus the {a-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} of Joseph Antar. The nines held and Gergis doubles up.

Levy Hanging In There

Level 25 : 20,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

When Grant Levy went all-in from the button, Mark Staples in the big blind asked, "Can you beat 7-2?". "I've got the nuts for my position", Levy said, showing {a-Clubs}{4-Clubs} and he took the blinds.

"Anyone Else, I Snap-Call"

Level 25 : 20,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Mark Staples put all his chips in with {a-Diamonds}{q-Spades}, and Grant Levy had {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}. Levy was torn between calling and folding.

"Anyone else and I snap call", but he made the call anyway.

The flop brought a queen and Staples doubled, leaving Levy as the short stack.

Bogdanovski Drags A Nice Pot

Level 25 : 20,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

With the board showing {7-Spades}{k-Clubs}{6-Spades}{10-Spades}, John Bogdanovski bet 180,000 and Kiavash Arbabi check-called. The pot now was about 700,000 going to the river which was the {10-Hearts}.

Arbabi checked, and Bogdanovski went all-in. Arbabi folded, and the pot was pushed to Bogdanovski.

Levy From The Small

Level 25 : 20,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Grant Levy was all-in from the small blind for 790,000, and Michael Tran in the big blind just barely covering gave it plenty of consideration, then flashed {k-Spades}{q-Spades} and folded.
