May the Fours Be With You

Omaha Hi-Lo

Paul Ramondetta raised preflop from the button, Rostislav Tsodikov folded in the small blind and John Joannou called from the big blind before both players checked the flop of {j-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{6-Spades}.

On the turn of the {4-Clubs}, Joannou led out and Ramondetta called before both players checked down the river {10-Diamonds}.

Joannou tabled {k-Hearts}{k-Spades}{4-Spades}{3-Diamonds} for trip fours; Ramondetta mucked and Joannou scooped the pot.

Joannou Scoops

Stud-8

Ramondetta: (X) (X) {6-?} {2x] {5-?} {9-?} (X)
Joannou: (X) (X) {6-?} {5-?} {4-?} {J-?} (X)

Paul Ramondetta had been firing the whole way until the end where he checked. Joannou then bet seventh, and Ramondetta called.

Joannou showed {J-?} {6-?} {2-?} for Jacks and sixes. Ramondetta showed {6-?} {2-?} {5-?} for a smaller two pair, with neither player making a qualifying low.

Oliver Gill Eliminated in 4th Place (AUD $9,555)

Stud

Oliver Gill: [x][x]{k-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{j-Spades}{k-Spades}[x]
John Joannou: [x][x]{9-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}[x]
Paul Ramondetta: [x][x]{8-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{4-Spades}[x]

Rostislav Tsodikov brought in, Gill completed and Joannou and Ramondetta called before Tsodikov got out of the way.

There was some heavy action between the three players on fourth street which led to Gill leading out for the last of his chips of fifth street.

Joannou and Ramondetta called; the two players then checked on sixth street before Joannou led out on seventh street.

Ramondetta called; his {3-?}{3-?}{4-?} in the whole was good over Joannou's {a-?}{10-?}{7-?} and Gill's {q-?}{q-?}{5-?}.

Gill was sent to the rail in third place and Ramondetta continues to dominate this final table.

Gill Is Given Breathing Room

Razz

Getting it all-in against Paul Ramondetta, Oliver Gill managed to double his short stack having previously lost several Omaha Hi-Lo pots to Joannou. Gill was all-in by fifth.

Gill: {3-?} {6-?} {8-?} {5-?} {A-?} {J-?} {6-?}
Ramondettta: {A-?} {2-?} {4-?} {4-?} {9-?} {8-?} {J-?}

Still four players remain.

Gill (Almost) Silenced

Omaha Hi-Lo

John Joannou raised under the gun and the action folded around to Oliver Gill who called from the big blind to see a flop of {2-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}.

Gill check-called Joannou on the flop before both players checked the turn of the {9-Diamonds}.

Gill then bet in the dark before the dealer produced the river {5-Clubs}, only to see Joannou raise it up. Gill was most displeased.

"Sweet Jesus," Gill cried. "How do you have {a-?}{3-?}?" he asked, before making a crying call, only to muck when Joannou showed {a-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{6-Hearts}.

Gill is now running on fumes with only 46,000 in is stack.
