Manny Rodrigues opened to 21,000 under the gun only to have Matthew Kirk three-bet to 65,000 from the small blind.
With the action on Sam Razavi in the big blind, he moved all in to force Rodrigues to fold as Kirk went deep into the tank.
The both exchanged some banter before Kirk made the call to be at risk.
Kirk: 
Rodrigues: 
With the inevitable tournament coinflip being a regular occurrence today, it was Kirk's turn to see if it was his day or that of Razavi.
The 
flop didn't hit either player, but instead further Razavi's stranglehold in the hand.
The 
on the turn however now gave Kirk outs to a chop with a four or any club, ace or king to take the entire pot.
Unfortunately for the 2008 eleventh-place finisher, the river blanked out with the 
to end his tournament in twentieth-place for a AUD$45,000 payday as Razavi soared out to 1,085,000 in chips.
