Level 23 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante
Paul Murray - 7th Place
Paul Murray - 7th Place

Paul Murray started the day as the chip leader, but has had a rough day to be eliminated in 7th place.

Murray's final hand saw Scott Davies open from under the gun, Dean Blatt called from the button and Murray called off the rest of his tiny stack from the big blind.

Murray watched on as Blatt and Davies played out the hand on a {a-Spades}{7-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{8-Clubs} board. Davies led for 50,000 on the flop and Blatt called. Both players checked the turn, while Blatt led for 105,000 on the river. Davies folded and Blatt instantly tabled his {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts} - the nut flush.

Murray's cards went into the muck and he was eliminated with $20,500 for his time.

The remaining six players are guaranteed $25,600.

Not Murray's Day

Level 23 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

The bad luck has continued for Paul Murray. He recently got coolered in a set over set situation against Scott Davies and no he has lost an all in hand with an overpair versus Dean Blatt.

Blatt moved all in for 194,000 from the small blind, after Murray had opened from under the gun. Murray called, leaving himself with 50,000 behind, while Blatt was at risk.

Blatt: {10-Clubs}{10-Spades}
Murray: {j-Spades}{j-Clubs}

Blatt was ready to leave, but the river on a {3-Clubs}{a-Hearts}{5-Spades}{q-Spades}{10-Hearts} board gave him a set of tens and enough to double up.

The Perth local pockets $16,400.

Huge Cooler Win for Davies

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

A massive cooler has just seen Scott Davies skyrocket into a monster lead.

It started with Patrick Mahoney opening to 40,000 from early position. Play folded around to Paul Murray in the small blind and he called, while Davies, from the big blind, also called.

The {8-Hearts}{5-Spades}{6-Spades} flop is where all the crazy action would play out.

Murray led for 75,000 and Davies raised it up to 235,000. Mahoney folded and Murray quickly moved all in, having Davies covered. Davies called off his 844,000 total chips and the cards were turned over.

Murray turned over {6-Hearts}{6-Clubs} for a flopped set of sixes.

Davies then turned over {8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} for top set.

“I knew it,” said Murray.

The turn was a {7-Hearts} and the river a {a-Clubs}, with the turn giving Murray outs to a chop, but ultimately not enough to save his chips. Murray is down to 260,000 while Davies is nearing 2 million.

Lucky Blatt Double

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Dean Blatt was down to just 80,000 (four big blinds) when he moved all in from under the gun plus one. The action folded around to Patrick Mahoney in the small blind and he piled in 25,000-denomination chips. Vesko Zmukic folded the big blind and Blatt was at risk.

Blatt gave a slight sigh as he tabled {6-Spades}{3-Clubs}. Mahoney had {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}.

No second sigh for Blatt on the {6-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{a-Spades} flop.

The {k-Diamonds} turn and the {4-Diamonds} river were safe and Blatt doubled.
