I'll See Your Overpair, and Raise You a Miracle River

Hold'em:

Chris Ferguson raised from the button before Alexander Kostritsyn reraised in the big blind. Ferguson made the call.

They saw a flop of {6-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} and Kostritsyn led out with a bet of 6,000. Ferguson popped it up to 12,000 before Kostritsyn made it 18,000 to go. Ferguson called for the last of his chips.

Ferguson: {J-Spades}{3-Diamonds}
Kostritsyn: {K-Hearts}{K-Spades}

Ferguson held top pair but was trailing as Kostritsyn had found another big overpair. The turn was a brick in the {4-Clubs} but the river was a miraculous {3-Clubs} to give Ferguson another double up in sensational fashion! He's up to 68,000. Still in trouble, but still has a pulse.

Kostritsyn Finds Jacks To Dent Ferguson

Hold'em:

Back to the Hold'em round and Chris Ferguson raised from the button with Alexander Kostritsyn calling out of the big blind.

The flop came {3-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} and Kostritsyn check-raised the bet from Ferguson to 12,000. Ferguson made the call. The turn brought the {K-Spades} and Kostritsyn fired 12,000. Ferguson thought for a moment and called.

The river landed the {7-Diamonds} and Kostritsyn fired again with Ferguson calling. Kostritsyn tabled {J-Spades}{J-Diamonds} for the best hand to take it down. Ferguson is now back down to 40,000 chips.

Omaha Hi/Lo:

Chris Ferguson was all in on the turn with his tournament life on the line. The board read {8-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{A-Diamonds} and he showed {Q-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{6-Clubs}{6-Hearts} for two pair however Alexander Kostritsyn revealed {4-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}{10-Spades} for the flopped nut straight.

With the title in the balance, incredibly the {Q-Spades} fell on the river to make Ferguson a full house to scoop the pot and double to 84,600 to stay alive!

Ferguson on Life Support

Hold'em:

Alexander Kostritsyn has taken down the first two pots in heads-up play during the Hold'em round.

The first hand saw Kostritsyn down it down making two pair with {Q-Spades}{6-Hearts} on a board of {6-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{9-Spades}{4-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}.

He followed that up by making a pair of tens on a board of {7-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{7-Spades} holding {10-Clubs}{4-Clubs} against Ferguson's {K-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} for a flopped pair of sixes.

Ferguson is down to 32,000 and in need of a double up.

Heads Up Chip Counts

We're now heads up in Event #16 with Alexander Kostritsyn holding a nice chip advantage over Chris Ferguson.

Jeff Madsen Eliminated in 3rd Place (AU$40,000)

Jeff Madsen - 3rd place
Jeff Madsen - 3rd place
Hold'em:

Jeff Madsen has been crippled and then eliminated in back-to-back Hold'em hands against Alexander Kostritsyn.

In the first hand Madsen check-called the whole way on a board of {Q-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{2-Spades}{5-Hearts}{8-Clubs}. Madsen held just ace-high with {A-Hearts}{7-Hearts} but Kostritsyn had paired up with his dominated {A-Spades}{5-Spades}.

Madsen was left with just 20,000 chips and he got them all in preflop next hand with {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}. Unfortunately for him he'd run into the {Q-Clubs}{Q-Hearts} of Kostritsyn. The board ran out {2-Hearts}{2-Spades}{4-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds} and Kostritsyn takes out another one as Madsen hits the rail in 3rd place for AU$40,000 in prize money.
