Carl Knocks Waterman Back

The action was started by Carl Knox on the button and he made it 24,000 to go. Matt Yates made the call from the small blind, at which point John Waterman moved all-in from the big blind. Knox snap called and Yates got out of the way, as Knox would have his tournament life on the line.

The {j-Spades}{5-Clubs}{9-Spades}{4-Clubs}{6-Clubs} board wouldn't help the {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} of Waterman and Knox's {q-Spades}{q-Hearts} would save his tournament life of as Knox takes the double-up and leaves Waterman's stack heavily damaged.

Waterman Opens Them All

Level 20 : 6,000/12,000, 1,000 ante

While there have been no flops seen in the last five hands, it has been all John Waterman for the last few minutes.

Waterman took down four of the hands when he used relentless aggression to open all four hands he was involved in, receiving no competition from his opponents.

Let The Coin Decide

When John Waterman moved all-in from the big blind over the top of a raise from Carl Knox on the button there was a big decision for Knox to make. Waterman had Knox covered and should he call he might be heading home in 4th place.

Knox looked like he was in pain as he contemplated the call. After a couple of minutes, Knox could be seen picking up a coin and proceeding to flip it, seemingly leaving his tournament life to chance. It is interesting to note that at last year's ANZPT Queenstown event, the eventual winner Julian Cohen would flip a coin twice on that final table when he was faced with tough decisions.

Apparently the coin decided Knox would fold, as he put it back on the table next to him and flung his cards into the muck.

The Water Man Chips Up

John Waterman was on the button when he raised it up to 25,000. A call From Carl Knox in the big blind would see a {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} flop being dealt.

Knox was first to act and fired out 28,000. At this point Waterman moved all-in for over 200,000 and Knox went into the tank. Eventually he would decide to fold and send the pot to Waterman.

No Flops

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

The last five hands have seen no flops dealt, with the four remaining players in Carl Knox, Matt Yates, Marcel Schreiner and John Waterman each getting their share of some blinds and antes.

Daniel Laidlaw Eliminated in 5th Place (NZD$24,000)

When Matt Yates opened to 23,500 from the cutoff seat, Marcel Schreiner would promptly raise to 59,500 from the small blind. Daniel Laidlaw was in the big blind when he moved all-in for his remaining 98,500 and the action would be back on Yates as his cards went into the muck.

Schreiner, however, would opt to call the all-in bet and we had another tournament life on the line here at the 2011 APPT Queenstown Main Event.

The {2-Clubs}{2-Hearts} of Schreiner would be a slight favourite against the {a-Clubs}{q-Spades} of Daniel Laidlaw and when the {2-Spades}{j-Spades}{4-Diamonds} flop was dealt it was looking bleak for Laidlaw. The {9-Hearts} on the turn would leave Laidlaw drawing dead and the PokerStars qualifier would be sent packing in 5th place for a handsome NZD$24,000 score.
