Hong Pham

Roberto Romanello raised to 3,000 from the cutoff and Hong Pham reraised to 8,500. Romanello instantly reshoved all in and Pham snapped him off. Players flipped their cards, with Romanello the player at risk.

Roberto Romanello: {k-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}
Hong Pham: {a-Hearts}{a-Spades}

Romanello had been attempting a steal with his four-bet, but couldn't have timed it any worse as he ran into Pham's aces. He had a long way to go if he was to catch up.

The board ran out {q-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{5-Spades}{j-Hearts}{q-Clubs}. Pham's aces held up and Romanello was eliminated from the tournament. Pham, meanwhile, chipped up to over 250,000.

Level 9 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Wahid Ashraf
Wahid Ashraf

James O'Brien limped and Carl Shaw raised over the limper. Waheed Ashraf called on the button and Andrew Tuxworth reraised to 30,000. Shaw and Ashraf both called.

The flop came {4-Spades}{6-Clubs}{2-Clubs}. Tuxworth checked and Shaw shoved all in. Ashraf only had a few big blinds behind and so made the call. Players flipped their cards.

Waheed Ashraf: {k-Hearts}{10-Hearts}
Carl Shaw: {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}

Shaw was well ahead holding ace high with the king kicker, as well as a flush draw. The turn came the {7-Diamonds} and the river fell the {4-Hearts}. Neither player improved and so Shaw held up, eliminating Ashraf from the tournament.

The turn was the {j-Hearts} and action checked around to McCallum, who made it 3,500 to go. Both other players called. The river came the {4-Spades} and all three players checked.

Nick Hicks showed {j-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} for a pair of jacks. He had also flopped a straight draw, which hadn't improved, but his pair was enough to claim the pot.
