Doug Corning Eliminated in 3rd Place ($15,915)
Level 21
: 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Doug Corning was chipped down to only 10 big blinds early in the level while Mohammed Afiouni took a pot off Daniel Hachem in Pot-Limit Omaha to increase the lead with a flush.
Then, Hachem raised from the button and Corning jammed for 120,000 with Hachem making the call for one third of his stack.
Corning: 
Hachem: 
The flop 
already improved Hachem to a pair of aces and Corning failed to improve with the 
turn and 
river. He takes home a payday of $A15,915 while two Aussies will determine the next winner of a LK Boutique championship ring.
Both players then took a short break and even Tony Hachem showed up on the rail for moral support.
