After the dealer burned and turned the

Action exploded on a 
flop between Edward Hatzakortzian and Sam Higgs that resulted in the former getting his last 10,000 or so in the pot.
Hatzakortzian: 
Higgs: 
Hatzakortzian held two pair, but he even admitted he didn't like the situation as Higgs held a queens with overs and a flush draw.
"Straight away," a resigned Hatzakortzian said after the 
turn gave Higgs the flush. Hatzakortzian could still win with either a queen of three, but it wasn't in the cards as the 
blanked on the river. With that, Hatzakortzian, became the first player eliminated from the 2014 WSOP APAC Event #5 $5,000 Pot-Limit Omaha.

An elimination hand just took place, and while we didn't catch it as it happened, we learned some details after the fact.
Three players checked a 
flop that contained two hearts. The turn proved to be an action card between Jeff Rossiter and Mohsin Charania. The latter got his stack all in holding 
for the nut straight, but Rossiter was freerolling him with the 
for the same straight with a flush redraw.
Much to Charania's dismay, the river was a heart and he was flushed away at the tail end of Level 2.

After Phil Hellmuth opened with a raise from early position, Sam Higgs three-bet to 1,050 from the small blind. Jeff Rossiter folded the big, Hellmuth called, and it was heads-up action to the 
flop. Higgs was first to act and wasted little time in betting out 1,625, which Hellmuth called.
When the 
peeled off on the turn, Higgs upped the bet to 4,000, and this gave Hellmuth pause. He pulled his cards up to eye level and began shuffling them back and forth. He then folded the 
face up.

It may only be level three but the action is already quite heavy. Phil Ward has had a rough start but just got back to almost the initial stack of 15,000 in chips. He got it in with 
versus 
and the final community card on a board of 
gave him the double up. He did fade the nut flush draw though.
