Quoss Seven-Bets All-in

German pro Fabian Quoss just seven-bet all-in and that's something you don't see every day in a live tournament. The action started when a player raised to 850. Rupert Elder three-bet to 1,825 and later Tweeted that he folded ace-queen suited when the action got back to him. Fabian Quoss was the next player to get involved and he threw out a four-bet to 3,200.

A fourth player got involved and he decided to cold five-bet to 11,200. Now we were finally back to the initial raiser who threw five yellow 5,000 chips into the pot making it 25,000 total. Elder folded his cards and Quoss shoved for 37,350. The five-better was very unhappy with these developments and tanked for ages before folding his cards. The initial raiser also seemed like he didn't expected this, and after some thought he threw in the extra chips to make the call. "Please have aces, please have aces!" the five-better cried as the cards were being turned over.

Fabian Quoss{A-Spades}{A-Clubs}
Opponent{J-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}

The board ran out {Q-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{3-Clubs} and Quoss remained very quiet as he doubled up.

McLean Karr

McLean Karr is back up over the starting stack after he just managed to double up. We caught the action on the flop that read {6-Spades}{7-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}. Karr's opponent checked and he bet 925. His opponent called and the turn was the {6-Hearts}. Once more it was Karr who got the action and he threw out 2,125. His opponent decided to put him all-in and the American made the call.

Rosen Finishes Off Lisandro

After losing most of his stack after running into Jamie Rosen's kings, Jeff Lisandro was left with just 13,000. Rosen recently finished the job when, according to him, Lisandro opened with {8-Diamonds}{9-} and he three-bet from the small blind with {J-}{J-Diamonds}. Lisandro made the call and the flop came down {K-}{K-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}.

Rosen bet, Lisandro shoved, and Rosen called. The turn and river were both diamonds, and while both players held a diamond, Rosen's was better. Lisandro has been eliminated from the 2012 Crown's Aussie Millions Poker Championship Main Event.

No More Greenstein

Barry Greenstein
Barry Greenstein

Barry Greenstein has just been eliminated. We saw the long time pro leave the tournament area and asked his former table mates what happened. After a raise and a call Greenstein decided to raise to 4,000 and the initial raiser folded. The caller decided to put Greenstein to the test putting him all-in.

Greenstein made the call for, around, 10,000 and was up against {A-}{J-} with {K-}{K-}. Unfortunately an ace hit the board en that sealed the deal for Greenstein.

"I'm an Idiot"

Jeff Lisandro
Jeff Lisandro

A player in early position raised to 1,100 and was called by Jamie Rosen in middle position and Jeff Lisandro in the big blind. It went check-check to Rosen on the {9-Spades}{J-Hearts}{7-Spades} flop, and he bet 2,600. Lisandro made the call while the original raiser got out of the way.

When the {5-Clubs} was put out on the turn, Lisandro check-called a bet of 6,000 and the {7-Hearts} was run out on the river. Again Lisandro checked, opening the door for Rosen to fire out 15,000, leaving himself just 3,000 behind. Lisandro asked for a count, thought for a few moments, and then announced, "I'm an idiot," before making the call.

Rosen rolled over {K-Hearts}{K-Diamonds} for two pair and the pot. Lisandro sent his cards to the muck and went back to grinding his stack of approximately 13,000.
