Sam Vakili Eliminated in 10th Place ($11,430)

Anthony Kingston raised to 100,000 and Sam Vakili reraised all-in. Kingston called.

Kingston: {2-Clubs} {2-Hearts}
Vakili: {8-Clubs} {8-Diamonds}

A fatal duck was the doorcard as the board came {2-Spades} {5-Diamonds} {3-Diamonds} {7-Hearts} {J-Diamonds} and Sam Vakili goes out first on the final table, pocketing $11,430 for his efforts.

Kingston is up to 1,100,000.

Slow Going

It's tightened up on this final table but the rail has built up two-deep to watch as the remaining players go toe-to-toe for the first 2010 Aussie Millions championship ring and the first prize of AUD $200,025.

That's enough for a porterhouse steak and a deposit on a house. Or, you could perhaps spend it on a luxury car and use the remainder for a day at the zoo.

Why not leave your ideas on how you would spend the first place prizemoney in the Shout Box?

The rules are simple - think of one exorbitant purchase worth up to $200,000, then one other thing up to $25. The winner will get a packet of Tim Tams.

Rawiller in the Rough

In the first flop on the final table, Anthony Kingston and Brad Rawiller went heads-up on a board that read {q-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} after Rawiller called Kingston's preflop raise of 105,000.

Rawiller checked, Kingston fired out 200,000 and Rawiller mucked, left with just 225,000 in chips which he moved all in two hands later.

Rawillier held {a-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} and was just ahead of Brent Thomas who had called with {a-Spades}{5-Spades}. Rawiller took the lead on the {q-Spades}{10-Spades}{6-Clubs} flop but had to dodge spades to stay alive.

Fortunately, the turn and river was full of paint as it ran out {j-Diamonds},{j-Hearts} and Rawiller is back up to 480,000.

Tony Hachem Eliminated in 11th Place ($9,144)

Hachem - 11th
Hachem - 11th

Tony Hachem moved his short stack into the middle from the cut-off. Glenn Croft quickly called behind him and the blinds folded.

Hachem: {K-Diamonds} {10-Spades}
Croft: {J-Diamonds} {J-Hearts}

The table went surreally Spartacus-esque as all the other players jokingly declared they had folded K-T. Hachem got the dealer to pause and said, "You know what to do!"

The flop came out {9-Clubs} {A-Clubs} {4-Spades} but the turn was the {Q-Hearts} and Hachem said, "Give him his Jack!" but the river was the {2-Diamonds}, the ultimate brick.

We've now broken to one table where our players are now setting up.

If you didn't catch the video over the weekend, Lynn Gilmartin caught up with Hachem on Day 1B:

Ephraums Wins Game Of Chicken

New Chip Leader
New Chip Leader
Matthew Ephraums came in for a raise to 75,000, it was passed over to small blind Brendan Edmonds who made it 225,000 to go.

The action came back to Ephraums who said quietly, "Four-hundred thousand," before sliding out several stacks of yellow 5k chips.

Edmonds thought for about a minute before releasing his hand, and also the chip lead.

Hachem Under the Pump

The action folded around to Tony Hachem who raised from the button to 80,000. Glenn Croft folded on the small blind but Brenton Thomas announced he was all in from the big blind.

Hachem was none too pleased. "This is the third or fourth time I've raised from the button and being reraisd all in!" he cried.

Hachem eventually let it go and walked away from the table to cool off. He'll have to hurry back though - he's only on 260,000. Thomas is now on 1,075,000.
