Chidwick Runs into a House; Chen and Guillen All In

Nível 4 : 150/300, 50 ante

Alex Lynskey has continued to be a pain to the notable pros at his table. The last player to come off worst against him was Stephen Chidwick.

Around 7,500 chips had made it into the middle by the time the board rested as . Lynskey over-bet the pot to the tune of 9,000 and Chidwick called after giving it some serious thought. Lynskey opened for a full house and Chidwick mucked.

"All in, call, table 28," was the cry from the dealer.

Angel Guillen and Pete Chen were the two players all in but both had ace-king. The board ran and Chen was free rolling the turn as he had the , both took their chips back at the end of the hand though.

Here Comes Ole

Nível 3 : 100/200, 25 ante

The 2015 Aussie Millions AU$100,000 Challenge is currently on hiatus. That's because tournament organizers wanted to offer the final nine players a chance to play in the Aussie Millions Main Event. One man taking advantage is actually the chip leader of the $100,000 Challenge Ole Schemion.

In a recent hand, there was around 2,000 in the pot and a flop of when Schemion checked from early position and his opponent in middle position bet 1,275. Schemion then check-raised to 2,550, his opponent pushed back with a three-bet to 6,550, and Schemion opted to call.

When the dealer burned and turned the , Schemion checked and stared down his opponent, who bet a hefty 11,000. Schemion thought long and hard before making the call and then checked for a third time on the river. His opponent slowed down by doing the same and Schemion showed the for a full house. It was good as his opponent had been firing with the .

Three More $100,000 Challenge Players In

Nível 3 : 100/200, 25 ante

It was expected that most, if not all, the $100,000 Challenge entrants that played yesterday would appear in the Main Event today.

Erik Seidel, Tony Bloom and Tobias Reinkemeier are three of the latest to show up. Reinkemeier busted midway through the day yesterday; Bloom fell a couple short of the money, but Seidel is still in the hunt in what must one of his favourite tournaments. Why? Because it's the fourth time he's made the money in the event and it's made him, at least AU$3million over the years.

"Why Can't You Just Be a Good Boy and Die?"

Nível 3 : 100/200, 25 ante

Last week, Alex Trevallion won the AU$25,000 Challenge, a tournament that blew away expectations by attracting 104 entrants and creating a prize pool of AU$2,496,000, for AU$645,150. Then, yesterday he made the final table of the AU$100,000 Challenge, which will play down to a winner later this week. Needless to say, it's been a heck of a week for the Australia online pro, who happens to share a similar name to Sean Bean's character in the 1995 James Bond flick Goldeneye (Bean's character is Alec Trevelyan, who uttered the iconic line in the title).

Trevallion is in today's field and looking for more Aussie Millions success. In a recent hand, there was around 3,000 in the pot and a board reading when a raising war broke out between Trevallion and an unknown opponent. Trevallion ended up getting his last 18,100 all in holding the for trip sevens with a king kicker, which bested the [7xc5x] of his opponent. the river was safe for Trevallion, and he was pushed a welcome double.
