Dominik Nitsche Eliminated in 4th Place (AU$323,950)

Level 19 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Dominik Nitsche - 4th place
Dominik Nitsche - 4th place

Dominik NItsche raised to 92,000 under the gun leaving himself just 20,000 behind, and Manig Loeser announced a raise to 170,000 next to act. Action folded back to Nitsche, and he committed his remaining 20,000 to be at-risk.

Nitsche: {A-Diamonds}{5-Spades}
Loeser: {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}

The dealer spread a {7-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{4-Hearts} flop and Nitsche immediately pleaded for lots of hearts.

The {3-Hearts} on the turn gave Nitsche outs to a flush to chop, or a deuce to go along with his ace to double.

The river landed the {4-Clubs} and Nitsche was eliminated in fourth-place in the AU$50,000 Challenge for an AU$323,950 payday.

Bjorn Li - 5th Place
Bjorn Li - 5th Place

Toby Lewis raised to 40,000 from under the gun and was called by Bjorn Li in the big blind.

Both players checked the {7-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} flop before the {8-Hearts} dropped on the turn.

Li thought for a moment before announcing all in for 279,000. Lewis received a count and went into the tank using an additional time extension disc. He eventually called and the cards were tabled.

Li was in the lead holding {8-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} for two pair and was in great shape against Lewis who held {k-Hearts}{5-Spades} for top pair.

The {5-Hearts} dropped on the river giving Lewis the winning hand with a higher two pair ultimately sending Li to the rail in fifth-place.
