Michael Pedley Eliminated in 27th Place (AU$30,000)

Nível 20 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Michael Pedley stood in disbelief at the fact he had just been eliminated in 27th place. There were no bad beats, but instead one incredible call from Brian Rast.

Three players saw a flop come , and when it checked to Rast who bet from the button only Pedley called from the big blind. Pedley again stuck with him after the turn where he check-raised Rast's 115,000 bet up to 230,000. Rast made a quick call before facing an all-in bet from Pedley valued at 390,000 on the river.

Rast immediately asked how much the shove was, which showed his interest. He then went through a period of several minutes where he folded his arms, stood up, and sat back down again, all the time while mumbling to himself trying to figure out what Pedley could have. Eventually, he made the call with for just a pair of nines! Pedley told him it's a good call and opened .

Rast received lots of praise from the rest of the table and those looking on from the rail. Some gave him a little fist pump to acknowledge just how good the calls was.

"I know, right! I wanted to call, but how can you call with that?" said Rast.

Nível 20 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Coombe opted to push back with a four-bet to 185,000, Kan five-bet all in, and Coombe called off his stack of what looked to be 600,000.

Coombe:
Kan:

Coombe was in a bad spot, and his best shot at survival was to catch an ace. The flop was no help, and neither was the turn. Coombe needed an ace and an ace only on the river to double, but it wasn't in the cards as the bricked. Coombe exited in 28th place for AU$30,000 while Kan extended his chip lead.

"The rich get richer," Terence Clee chimed.

Nível 20 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Barer:
McDonald:

McDonald was behind, but at least he was drawing to two live cards. The flop wasn't very special, but the turn did make things interesting as McDonald picked up an open-ender, though Barer had flush blockers. Those scenarios proved to be a moot point though as the paired the board on the river and Barer won the pot with his king.
