The Aussies are having a tough time of it at table six. Bruno Portaro is already down to half of his stack, and Jai Kemp has recently joined him.

On a flop of {9-Hearts}

{9-Hearts}

{a-Clubs}

{4-Hearts}

Kemp checked to Ralf Westphal who bet out 600. Kemp raised to 900 with Westphal making the call.

The turn {5-Spades}

{5-Spades}

saw Kemp fire 1,700 and Westphal smooth called. The river was the {5-Diamonds}

{5-Diamonds}

and Kemp led 2,600 only for Westphal to raise to 6,500. Kemp reluctantly made the call and ran into Westphal's rivered {5-Hearts}

{5-Hearts}

{6-Hearts}

trips.

Kemp had {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{9-Clubs}

for a flopped top two pair.

"You should buy a lotto ticket mate," said Kemp tongue-in-cheek.

Kemp is down to about 11,000.
