Recent Bracelet Winner Eliminated by November Niner

Earlier today, Melbourne local and tattoo shop owner Sam Higgs took down Event #5: $5,000 Pot-Limit Omaha for AU$127,843 and a gold bracelet. After the win, Higgs joined his friends and family for a celebratory dinner, and then he left them to jump into this event. Higgs was seeking back-to-back bracelets, but his attempt was cut short by November Niner Bruno Politano.

Higgs was nursing a short stack and got it all in on a flop only to find himself in dire straits against his Brazilian foe.

Higgs had flopped top pair, but it was no good as Politano was sitting on the granddaddy of all hands. Neither the turn nor river helped Higgs, and he was sent to the rail. Needless to say, even after being eliminated it's been a heck of a day for Higgs.
