Rajinder Shina Eliminated in 10th Place (£5,850)

Level 21 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Rajinder Shina three-bet all in for around 115,000, and Timothy Chung called.

Timothy Chung: {q-Clubs}{10-Clubs}
Rajinder Shina: {k-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}

Board: {10-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{4-Hearts}{a-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}

Shina was the preflop favorite, but Chung hit a pair on the flop to take the lead. Unfortunately for Shina, the board completed in Chung's favor and the former was eliminated in 10th, and just missed out on a place at the final table.

Goliath X Set To Be The Biggest Goliath Ever

Level 22 : 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Grosvenor Poker expects the tenth edition of the Goliath tournament to be the biggest on record with an estimated prize pool weighing in at £1 million! This August sees the Goliath return to a live setting after two years of online action, and Grosvenor Poker is pulling out all the stops to make it epic.

There are eight starting flights in total between August 27 and September 2, two of which have a turbo blind structure. Each flight costs £150 to enter (£120+£30) and play lasts for 16 levels. The first eight levels last 30-minutes with the second eight spanning 40-minutes; the turbo flights have 20-minute blinds throughout.

Players who make it through any of the flights return to the action at the Grosvenor Casino at the Coventry Building Society Arena on September 3. Here, the plan is to play another 16x 40-minute levels or until only four tables remain.

Day 3 commences at 11:00 a.m. on September 4 and continues until one player remains, the slayer of the Goliath.
