Calcagno Finds A Double

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante

The action started with Kahle Burns raising to 1,700 from under the gun and getting called by Patrick Healy in the hijack. Eric Assadourian then bumped it up to 4,600 from the cut off before Scott Calcagno committed his remaining 7,100 from the big blind. The bet was enough to get Burns and Healy out of the pot. Assadourian made the call and both players tabled their cards.

Assadourian: {k-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}
Calcagno: {a-Hearts}{a-Clubs}

The board ran out {10-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{2-Diamonds} to see Calcagno hold with his aces as he doubled up to 18,800 in chips.

Lai Knocks Out a Shortie

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante

Patty Lai opened the action with a raise from under the gun and then called the three-bet shove of a short stack in middle position for 19,000 in chips. Lai was well ahead with {K-Clubs} {K-Diamonds} against pocket jacks and the {9-Spades} {K-Hearts} {5-Clubs} {6-Hearts} {2-Clubs} board left her opponent drawing dead after the turn already.

High Fives and Low Kings for Drinan

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante
Connor Drinan
Connor Drinan

Oliver Speidel, who you may recall as the 2012 Aussie Millions champ, raised from late position only to have Connor Drinan, the man who lost aces to aces this past summer in the $1,000,000 Big One for One Drop, three-bet all in for 5,300. Speidel called and the cards were turned up.

Drinan: {5-Hearts}{5-Clubs}
Speidel: {q-Spades}{7-Spades}

Drinan got it in good, and he'd survive the flip as the board ran out {6-Clubs}{j-Spades}{k-Hearts}{a-Spades}{a-Hearts}.

Unfortunately for Drinan, that double did him little good. A short time later he got his stack all in preflop holding the {k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs} and was ahead of the {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs} of his opponent; however, the board ran out {q-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} and trips sent Drinan out the door.

A Good Day for Hortin and Pfutzenreuter

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante

Even though Timo Pfutzenreuter just had to give up a hand against Vincent Chu after calling the 2,000 bet of Chua on a {5-Clubs} {4-Clubs} {Q-Spades} and then folding to thr second barrel on the {K-Spades} turn, he is up for the day. Dylan Hortin is running even better, early in level seven he was all in for his last 12,000 chips and now has more than 10 times of that.

One table over, Brian Rast confirmed that Winfred Yu has been eliminated.

Huntly Spikes Two-Outer to Eliminate Wilkerson

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante
Dylan Wilkerson
Dylan Wilkerson

Dylan Wilkerson opened to 1,800 from under the gun and Dennis Huntly three-bet the cutoff to 6,100. Wilkerson went into the tank for close to two minutes before moving all in for 25,800 and Huntly beat him into the pot.

Huntly: {Q-Hearts}{Q-Spades}
Wilkerson: {K-Clubs}{K-Hearts}

With Huntly in dire straights, the {Q-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{3-Clubs} flop gave him the lead before the {7-Spades} and {5-Clubs} fell on the turn and river to send Wilkerson to the rail.

Gorr Takes a Big Hit

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante

After former Aussie Millions champ David Gorr raised from button, the player in the small blind shoved all in for 13,900. The big blind folded, and Gorr opted to make the call.

Gorr: {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}
Opponent: {q-Spades}{q-Clubs}

Gorr was in bad shape, and he failed to get lucky as the board ran out a dry {9-Spades}{8-Hearts}{k-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}. With that, Gorr sent nearly half his chips to the player next door.

Gill Bluffs Into Rubie

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante

Corey Kempson opened to 1,600 and Oliver Gill called in the cutoff before Brendon Rubie three-bet to 5,400 from the small blind. Kempson folded, but Gill called as the flop landed {A-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} and the action was checked through.

The turn landed the {4-Hearts} and Gill bet 6,000 with Rubie check-calling as the river fell the {5-Diamonds} and Rubie checked.

Gill tossed in a small bet of 6,200 and Rubie quickly called. Gill announced, "you got it ... king-high!"

Rubie tabled his {A-Spades}{6-Diamonds} for two pair and scooped the pot to move to 100,000 as Gill slipped to 22,000 in chips.

Szmelcer Takes Care of Hachem

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante

We missed the full betting action but the remaining 18,300 chips of Joe Hachem went all in preflop with {A-Clubs} {J-Clubs} and Henry Szmelcer made the call with {A-Diamonds} {Q-Spades}. The {Q-Hearts} {4-Diamonds} {6-Clubs} flop immediately saw Hachem drawing very slim, he picked up a gutshot with the {K-Hearts} on the turn but the {6-Diamonds} river was a brick.

Boskovic Takes From O’Rourke

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante

The player under the gun plus one limped into the pot before Liam O’Rourke raised it up to 2,400 from the cut off. Dejan Boskovic made the call from the big blind as did the original limper.

The flop came down {3-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{6-Spades} and the action checked around to O’Rourke who threw in a bet of 3,800. Boskovic snap called as the other player got out of the way.

Both players then checked the {k-Clubs} on the turn as the {j-Clubs} completed the board. Boskovic reached for his chips and slid out 9,300 and was called shortly after.

Boskovic tabled his {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts} for two pair which was enough to take down the pot as O’Rourke mucked his hand.

Rough Day for Barer

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante

Jack Salter just came over and asked whether or not Ami Barer had busted, thus we headed to his former table with Yu Kurita and Byron Kaverman. It was indeed Kaverman, who sent him to the rail in the last level. "Yeah, he had a rough day," Kaverman said. After the open-raise of the American, Barer moved all in for 14,000 with {A-} {K-} and got called by Kaverman with {A-} {10-}.

The {K-} {5-} {5-} saw Barer in great shape to double up, but the {Q-} turn and the {J-} river sent the reigning Aussie Millions champion to the rail.
