Ryan Hong Eliminated in 11th Place (AUD$8,520)

Level 21 : 12,000/24,000, 3,000 ante
Ryan Hong - 11th place
Ryan Hong - 11th place

The final table bubble boy has been sent to the rail, with Ryan Hong not able to survive the night.

Folded to the button, Hong woke up with {j-Hearts}{j-Spades} in the small blind and was faced with a raise to 50,000 from Martin Drewe on the button. Hong shipped his stack all-in and Gabriel Xiourouppa snap-called from the big blind.

Xiorouppa: {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}

Hong running into aces would get no help when the board ran out {4-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}, sending him home in 11th place.

Palmer Four-Bet Victory

Level 21 : 12,000/24,000, 3,000 ante

From the hi-jack, Jonathan Palmer opened to 50,000 only to have Ryan Hong three-bet to 125,000 from the button.

Once the blinds passed, Palmer slid in what remained of his stack - 443,000 in total - to put the pressure back on Hong.

After several minutes in the tank, Hong kicked his cards to the muck while slipping to 480,000 as Palmer climbed to the 600,000-chip mark.

Hand-For-Hand!

Level 21 : 12,000/24,000, 3,000 ante

Following the recent elimination of Martin Kozlov, the tournament is now being played hand-for-hand until we lose one more and are left with our final table.

Martin Kozlov Eliminated in 12th Place (AUD$8,520)

Level 21 : 12,000/24,000, 3,000 ante
Martin Kozlov - 12th place
Martin Kozlov - 12th place

Sitting with only 157,000 behind, Martin Kozlov moved his stack in from under the gun. Folded around to Darren Kramer in the big blind, Kramer made the call putting Kozlov's tournament life at risk.

Kozlov: {8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}
Kramer: {k-Diamonds}{j-Spades}

The board bricked {6-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{a-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{9-Spades}, king-high too good for Kozlov sending him home in 12th place with AUD$8,520 to show for it.

Lackovic Finding Legs

Level 21 : 12,000/24,000, 3,000 ante

Martin Kozlov opened to 49,000 from the hi-jack before Nik Lackovic moved all in from the big blind for an additional 259,000. Kozlov made the call to put the fellow tournament regular at risk.

Kozlov: {K-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}
Lackovic: {A-Hearts}{K-Clubs}

The final board of {3-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{3-Hearts}{10-Clubs} would ensure Lackovic the double to 640,000 as Kozlov was left sunk on 160,000 in chips.
