Level 2 : 100/200, 200 ante
Dinh Pham (earlier in the series)
Dinh Pham (earlier in the series)

Michel Bouskila recently informed us of Dinh Pham's elimination from the tournament.

Yang Lei opened with a raise and was called by three players, one of whom was Pham.

The flop came {j-}{5-Clubs}{7-Clubs} and Lei continued for 3,000. The other two players folded. Pham then raised to 8,000. Lei moved all in and had Pham covered. Pham called.

Lei: {7-}{7-}
Pham: {8-Clubs}{6-Clubs}

Pham had flopped and up and down straight flush draw, but was unable to improve on the turn or river, ending his day midway through the second level of play.

Psarras Sets Opponent Straight

Level 2 : 100/200, 200 ante

The board showed {a-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{k-Spades}{3-Hearts} and the decision was on George Psarras in the small blind.

He looked over at his opponent's stack before splashing out a bet totalling 3,900. The bet was called.

Psarras then opened his cards and slid them across the table so they stopped in front of his opponent.

The cards showed {4-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} for a straight. Psarras' opponent sat motionless for a moment before finally releasing his hand to the muck.

The action folded around to Errolyn Strang in the small blind who called. Marc Camphausen checked his big blind.

The flop came {8-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{6-Clubs} and Strang led out for 500. Camphausen called.

The {7-Spades} dropped on the turn and Strang fired another 1,100. Camphausen called.

The {6-Diamonds} completed the board and Strang quickly bet 1,700. Camphausen raised it up to 5,500. Strang called.

Camphausen tabled {8-Diamonds}{6-Spades} for a full house, and took down the pot, after Strang mucked her hand in disappointment.

Scott Doubles Opponent

Level 3 : 200/300, 300 ante
Stewart Scott
Stewart Scott

The board showed {6-Spades}{7-Hearts}{4-Spades}{a-Hearts} and Stewart Scott had bet enough to put his opponent all in.

His opponent did call with 19,700 behind and was behind with {6-Hearts}{3-Hearts} against {8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}.

The {6-Clubs} spiked on the river to give Scott's opponent the winning hand with trip sixes.

It's not all bad news for the 2009 Aussie Millions champion, who still sits behind a double starting stack.
