Level 4
: 300/600, 600 ante
A regular in the AUS$2/3 cash games at The Star Sydney, Luis Arrilucea won his seat into this event for AU$1,100. However, Arrilucea will be going no further unless he wishes to pony up another $20,000 as he has been eliminated at the hands of Jan Suchanek.
The two got all the chips in on a ten-high flop, Arrilucea's pocket queens trailing to Suchanek's pocket aces to hit the rail and thin the field by one.
The number of entries has climbed to 35 with the re-entry of Vincent Huang and the entry of Jonathan Karamalikis.

There was a cry of 'All-in, Call!' over on one of the outer tables and it was Sosia Jiang the player at risk on a

river completed the hand and Teska stacked up to 107,000 while Jiang headed for the cage to re-enter.

, improving Shaqiri to a higher pair on the flop, keeping him in the tournament.
"It's about time I got some redemption off you, sir," said Shaqiri to Kempson after the hand.
"I was just about to rebuy back in," Shaqiri added.
"I run back from the restroom and get dealt queens," sighed Kempson.
