Level 15 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Ljudevit Marinic's tournament is over with Charlie Hawe the man to send him packing. It was Hawe the man in the driving seat, opening the action with a raise to 16,000 from mid position with Shivan Abdine making the call from the hijack and Marinic calling from the big blind.

The {4-Spades}{q-Clubs}{10-Spades} flop was where the fireworks went off, with Marinic moving all-in for 122,000 in total, giving Hawe a tough decision and he asked Abdine how much more he had behind (450k) before hitting the think tank for a few seconds. Hawe eventually chose to move all-in to isolate for ~330,000 and Abdine immediately folded.

Ljudevit Marinic: {k-Diamonds}{q-Spades}
Charlie Hawe: {a-Spades}{3-Spades}

Marinic held a slender lead with top pair, but Hawe was drawing extremely live with the nut flush draw and an overcard. The {q-Diamonds} turn improved Marinic's holdings before disaster struck on the {5-Spades} river, giving Hawe the flush and sending Marinic out in 16th for AU$13,060.
