Barney Boatman has doubed through to 9,500. We caught the action on a flop of {j-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{3-Spades}. Boatman led 800 with his opponent making the call.

The turn was the {Q-Spades} and Boatman moved in for another 3,500 with the opponent thinking before calling.

Boatman: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}
Opponent: {Q-Hearts}{j-Spades}

The river bricked giving Boatman some renewed life in this tournament.

Mirzikinian Muted

Warwick Mirzikinian has bombed out after running his stack as high as 12,000.

It would be a cruel twist of fate that would engulf the majority of his stack after Mirzikinian got his money in with {7-?}{5-?} against {k-?}{Q-?} on a {k-?}{7-?}{5-?} flop.

Things looked good for Mirzikinian to chip up further, until a {k-?} spiked the river.

A little later he found {A-?}{k-?} but wouldn't be able to hold up against {8-?}{3-?} sending him to the exit today.

Obst On The Move

Catching the action on the {7-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} flop, both James Obst and his opponent checked.

On the turn the player in the small blind led out for 500 only to have the young Obst raise it up to 1,500. The player in the small blind moved all-in and Obst made the call.

Obst was in great shape with the {q-Hearts}{8-Clubs} against his opponents {a-Spades}{8-Hearts}. The river was a brick, and Obst is now up to about 6,800.

Comer KO'd

Martin Comer has fallen victim to Jay "Seabeast" Kinkade.

Comer, Seabeast and a third player went three handed to an {A-Spades}{5-Hearts}{7-Hearts} flop for 400 chips a man.

They all checked and the turn was the {8-Diamonds}. The unknown player checked before Seabeast fired out a bet of around 1,000 chips. Comer came over the top all in for about 3,000 chips and it folded back to Kinkade.

After thinking a couple of moments he made the call tabling {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}. It would be enough to eliminate Comer's {8-Spades}{5-Diamonds} with the river blanking {6-Spades}.

Warne Chips Up

Defending champ Mark Kassis raised it up to 425 in middle position, Billy "The Croc" called, and Shane Warne reraised to 1350. Kassis made the call and "The Croc" folded.

The players saw a {k-Spades}{8-Clubs}{j-Hearts} flop and Kassis checked to the famed Australian cricketer, who moved all in for about 8,500. The returning champ folded and Warne is now up over 11,000.
