Kristian Lunardi

Another bust out, coming right before the dinner break.

Kristian Lunardi made it 24,000 preflop and got a cal from Ryan Hong.

Flop: {6-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{q-Diamonds}

A check-call from Lunardi after Hong bet 40,000.

Turn: {9-Hearts}

A check-raise allin from Lunardi this time after Hong bet 85,000. A call from Hong and a river to come.

Lunardi: {k-Hearts}{k-Spades}
Hong: {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs}

River: {j-Diamonds}

A devastating straight for Hong and Lunardi was gone, exiting in 25th place, taking home $6,520.

Vito Dalessandri opened to 25,000 from the cutoff only to have Yann Pauchon three-bet all in from the big blind for 111,000. Dalessandri made the call to put his fellow tournament regular at risk.

Dalessandri: {A-Clubs}{Q-Spades}
Pauchon: {A-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}

The board ran out {K-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{3-Spades}{8-Hearts} to see Pauchon hit the rail as Dalessandri climbs to 480,000 in chips.

Lau Climbing

Level 18 : 6,000/12,000, 1,000 ante

Gabriel Xiourouppa opened to 42,000 from early position and Isaac Lau three-bet to 90,000.

Xiourouppa made the call before both players checked the {K-Hearts}{A-Clubs}{J-Diamonds} flop as the {3-Hearts} rolled off on the turn and Xiourouppa pushed out a bet of 50,000. Lau made the call before the dealer dropped the {A-Spades} on the river and Lau's bet of 120,000 brought a fold from Xiourouppa.

Lau happily collected the pot to move to 890,000 as Xiourouppa slipped to 120,000 in chips.

G'Day from Kozlov Results in Three-Bet

Level 18 : 6,000/12,000, 1,000 ante
Martin Kozlov pushing out his 25,000-chip bet
Martin Kozlov pushing out his 25,000-chip bet

With Martin Kozlov's table being broken since only twenty-seven players remain, he greeted his new tablemates by opening the pot to 25,000 from early position.

On his direct left, Martin Drewe slid out a three-bet amounting to 62,000 before Yann Pauchon went deep into the tank before kicking his cards to the muck.

The remaining players on the table also followed suit by sending their cards back in the direction of the dealer as the action returned to Kozlov - who like all the players before him - opted to fold.

Both Drewe and Kozlov currently sit on roughly 340,000 as Pauchon is one of the short-stacks in the tournament with under 150,000.

Lauren McIver
Lauren McIver

Thanks to the following hand, we have a last woman standing!

Lauren McIver moved her remaining 76,000 into the pot from under the gun. Folded around to Isaac Lau in the small blind, he shipped his stack in to squeez the big blind out.

McIver: {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs}
Lau: {9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}

The board ran blanks and McIvor was sent home, a valiant effort to be the second last woman standing.

That brings us to Melanie Wohlers, our last woman standing! Congratulations Melanie.

Pauchon Chops

Level 18 : 6,000/12,000, 1,000 ante

Yann Pauchon had his tournament life on the line, all-in against Justin Cohen.

Pauchon: {A-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}
Cohen: {a-Spades}{9-Spades}

With Pauchon in bad shape, he called for a chop.

Board: {6-Spades}{6-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{3-Spades}

Chop it up. Pauchon lives to see another hand.

One Million Pairs

Level 18 : 6,000/12,000, 1,000 ante
Scott Montgomery on day 1c
Scott Montgomery on day 1c

Scott Montgomery can not put a foot wrong. Well at the very least, his cards can't.

Sean Dunwoodie led with 34,000 from under the gun, wherby Montgomery made it 70,000 from the hi-jack. Folded back around to Dunwoodie, he instantly shipped his stack.

"I call," Montgomery said calmly.

Montgomery: {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}
Dunwoodie: {j-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}

The board ran out {6-Clubs}{10-Spades}{3-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{7-Spades}, the ace on the turn the nail in Dunwoodie's tournament coffin!

Montogomery has now cracked over 1,000,000 in chips.

Hard Time

Level 18 : 6,000/12,000, 1,000 ante

Gabriel Xiourouppa is having as tough a time at the tables as we here at PokernNews are having at spelling his name.

Our reporter came to the table with a board reading {2-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}, with Xiourouppa's {k-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} showing, doubling up Mitchell Pavletich holding {6-Hearts}{6-Clubs}.
