Michael Zowie Eliminated in 7th Place (AUD $10,000)

Level 11 : 1,200/2,400, 0 ante

William Thorson is now the uber-stack at this final table, holding over 430,000 in chips after taking out Michael Zowie, who started this final table second overall.

Mike Shklover limped in from under the gun, as did Zowie from UTG +1 before Thorson raised to 10,000 from the button. Shklover and Zowie called, but Zowie was the only caller of Thorson's bet of 20,000 after the flop of {8-Clubs}{9-Spades}{3-Diamonds}.

On the turn of the {Q-Diamonds}, Zowie check-raised all-in after Thorson bet the pot, which was more than Zowie could afford. Zowie showed {A-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} for the straight, but Thor had a slim chance to hit Broadway with {A-Spades}{K-Clubs}{10-Spades}{10-Hearts}.

"Jack," Thorson said to the dealer. BINK! Down came the {J-Hearts} on the river, much to Zowie's disgust. Thorson apologized and shook hands with Zowie before he rushed out of the room, but not without his AUD $10,000 for finishing in seventh place!
