Charette Crippled, Stoneham Stacked, Bodo Binked

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 400 ante

Simon Charette was crippled down to 73,000 in chips after clashing with Tony Dunst, but Adam Stoneham and Bodo Sbrezsny were both sent to the rail and we're now down to 13 players.

Earlier over on table 15, Charette raised to 6,500 from under the gun and Dunst called from the big blind before check-calling Charette's bet of 7,100 on the flop of {4-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{5-Clubs}. Both players checked the turn of the {6-Spades} before Dunst check-raised to 40,000 after Charette's bet of 15,500 on the river of the {2-Hearts}.

As Dunst chipped up to 132,000, Stoneham and Ben Delaney got all their money into the middle over on table 11 on a flop that read {Q-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{8-Hearts}; Stoneham was gambling with {6-Hearts}{5-Hearts} but Delaney was still ahead with {k-Hearts}{10-Hearts}. Delaney hit his straight on the turn of the {J-Spades} and the river {7-Hearts} was of little consolation to Stoneham, who departed in 15th place (AUD $5,400).

A short time later over on the feature table, Waki Waki limped in from under the gun before Sbrzesny shoved for 67,000. The action folded to Stuart Macleod-Smith who called from the big blind before Waki got out of the way.

Macleod-Smith: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}
Sbrzesny: {K-Spades}{Q-Hearts}

If running into a monster like that wasn't enough, Macleod-Smith hit the case queen on the river, despite Sbrzesny pairing up on the board and almost freerolling to the heart flush on the board of {K-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{Q-Spades}. Yikes!

Sbrzesny is now out of the tournament, AUD $5,400 richer for his 14th place finish.
