Keith Hawkins Eliminated in 9th Place (254,608 HKD)

Keith Hawkins - 9th Place

We've lost our first and most experienced player at the final table. Victorino Torres raised to 40,000, and Keith "the Camel" Hawkins moved all in from the button. It wasn't much more than 100,000 for Torres to call, and call he did.

Showdown

Torres: {7-Clubs}{7-Hearts}
Hawkins: {a-Clubs}{3-Clubs}

The flop came {8-Spades}{3-Spades}{2-Diamonds}, giving Hawkins a pair and some extra outs, but the {j-Diamonds} and {4-Clubs} that followed weren't able to keep him alive.

Drivsholm Takes Over

Cole Swannack raised from early position to 36,000 and then Jeppe Drivsholm called from the button. The two chip leaders took a flop of {6-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{5-Clubs} and Swannack fired a continuation bet of 44,000. Drivsholm made the call.

The turn brought the {6-Diamonds} and Swannack checked. Drivsholm fired 110,000 and Swannack made the call.

The river completed the board with the {8-Hearts} and quickly both players checked. Swannack tabled the {A-Clubs}{7-Spades}, but Drivsholm held the {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs} and scooped the pot. Drivsholm is now the new chip leader, overtaking Swannack.

Paulsen Picks One Up

Chong Cheong raised preflop, and Kai Paulsen made the call from the button. The flop came out {a-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}, and Cheong bet 75,000. Paulsen quickly raised to 175,000. Cheong asked for a count and was told Paulsen had about 260,000 behind. Then Cheong headed into the tank and stayed there until Victorino Torres called the clock. It's important for the shorter stacks to get in as many hands as possible before the blinds go up. Cheong fold, and Paulsen took down the pot.

Who Wants the First Pot?

In an interview with a fellow media member, Jeppe Drivsholm informed that he'd like to be the one driving the action for the final table. On the first hand of the day, Drivsholm raised under the gun to 36,000 and started things off just like he said. Everyone folded and he took down the blinds and antes.

Getting set to go
Getting set to go

As on most final-table days, the start of the final table has been delayed. Action was set to begin at 12:15 p.m. local time and it's not just about a hour later than that. Good news is, players are seated and the chips are stacked so it shouldn't be too long before things get underway. Grab some popcorn and kick back, we'll be starting shortly!

What to do Before a Final Table

There's plenty of ways to kill time before playing a Main Event final table and Kai Paulsen has been spotted playing blackjack over in the pit. He's playing at a table with a minimum bet of HKD $200 and is seated by himself. We already know he's locked up HKD $254,608, but maybe he wants to pad his payday with some extra cash. Hopefully he doesn't blow through it all in the extreme case where he needs to money up in order to profit.

Tournament director Danny McDonagh informed us that Paulsen won the buy-in to this event when he hit a royal flush a couple weeks ago playing the Caribbean poker table game. The bonus was enough to cover his entry fee and Paulsen has done quite well with it.
