With the action on Tamas Lendvai in the small blind, he moved all in for 366,000 to put Tom Grigg to a decision in the big blind.

"I don't want to bust fifth!" stated Grigg as he recalled his fifth-place elimination at the 2009 APPT Sydney Grand Final. After several minutes of deliberation, Grigg eventually made the call to put the Hungarian at risk.

Lendvai: {K-Hearts}{3-Clubs}
Grigg: {A-Clubs}{8-Hearts}

With Lendvai covered only slightly, the {2-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} flop changed little. The {Q-Clubs} on the turn, followed by the {A-Diamonds} on the river would see PokerStars.net Online Qualifier Lendvai exit in 5th place for a $29,606 payday as Grigg collected the virtual double to over 750,000 in chips.

Leaoasavaii Flushed With Chips

Danny 'Brotha D' Leaoasavaii entered the pot in the cutoff with a raise to 50,000 only to have Tamas Lendvai make it 130,000 from the small blind.

Leaoasavaii made the call as both players checked the {7-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} flop. The turn landed the {9-Hearts} and once Lendvai checked, Leaoasavaii fired out 100,000.

Lendvai kicked his cards into the muck as Leaoasavaii flashed his cards to the rail - and with our PokerNews reporter standing in direct view - showing the {K-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} for a flopped flush.

Grigg quickly mucked, as did Silk, to see Leaoasavaii's four-bet ensure him the collection of the pot as he moved to 1,680,000 in chips.

"You Aussie boys ey!" stated Leaoasavaii as both Silk and Grigg laughed.

"Cut it out!" added Leaoasavaii as Tamas Lendvai accused him of holding Kings.

"I had the kahunas!" responded Leaoasavaii.
