No More Jensen

Jay Tan just knocked out EPT winner and Aussie Millions Main Event runner up Frederik Jensen. Jensen won A$1,100,000 in 2010 when he lost heads up to Tyron Krost, but added a sweet victory in Madrid when he won the EPT for €495,000 last March.

We put together the hand with help from the players at Jensen's former table. Jensen raised under the gun to 900 and Tan three-bet to 2,000. The action was folded back to the Dane who four-bet to 4,200. Tan called and the flop brought out . Tan checked to Jensen who bet 3,800 and Tan moved all in. Jensen snap-called with pocket kings but was up against a set of eights.

No luck on the turn or river for Jensen who had started the hand with around 21,000 chips. Tan meanwhile is up to 48,000 and doing very good. Earlier this Aussie Millions she recorded her first cash on Australian soil when she finished 38th in the $1,100 Six-Max even.

On to the Next One for Rubie

Brendon Rubie, who won last year's Aussie Millions Opening Event for AU$200,000, won't be adding a Main Event title to his résumé this year.

The man known as "Brendooor" never seemed to get much going here on Day 1c, and despite a brief post-dinner comeback, he's been eliminated. Here's how he described it on Twitter:

Brendooor
@Brendooor

Staged a brief comeback to 20k then got it in with AK v QQ and lost a flip.. next tourney is $2.5k 6-max in a few days.. #AussieMilllionsJanuary 29 2013

An early-position player opened for 1,550 and received a call from the button. A short-stacked Tony Bloom, who won this very event back in 2004, then moved all in from the small blind for 3,250 more. The original raiser isolated by moving all in over the top, the button folded, and the cards were turned on their backs.
