"Aussie! Aussie! Aussie!"

Level 9 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

It must have been one hell of a dinner break for Murray Chick who has soared over 400,000 in just two hands after the resumption of play following the dinner break.

"Aussie! Aussie! Aussie!" came the cry from Chick seated in the Pavilion after sending two players to the rail in back-to-back hands.

According to Chick, he called an all in with {a-}{7-} suited against an opponent's pocket nines, and after two sevens came he sent him on his way on the very first hand after dinner.

Then, a player moved all in for 21,000 and Chick called in the big blind.

Murray Chick: {j-Clubs}{4-Clubs}
Opponent: {k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}

The {k-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{10-Spades} flop gave the all-in player top set, but the {q-Hearts} turn improved Chick to a straight. The river bricked and his opponent became the second elimination at the hands of Chick in two hands.

"Sometimes you've got to take a stand," said Chick stacking his chips.

"I'll just have to get in with the worst hand against you," said another player at the table.
