AU$10,600 Main Event
Jour 4 terminé
Les sept derniers survivants du Main Event Aussie Millions 2019 à 10.600$ l'entrée sont assurés d'un gain de 242 000$ pour leurs efforts. Ils vont pouvoir rêver tranquillement du Top 3 et des 3 millions à se partager durant plus de 24 heures puisque le tournoi est mis en pause jusqu'à la nuit de dimanche à lundi pour laisser place à la finale du 100K Challenge.
Ils étaient 822 sur la ligne de départ, un record d'affluence, et ils n'étaient plus que 38 en lice à l'entame du Jour 4. Le dernier Français en course s'est incliné en 22e position, victime d'un des futurs finalistes. Thibault Klinghammer a sauté contre l'Américain Bryn Kenney mais multiplié sa mise de départ par 6.
Il reste un premier prix de 1,85 millions de dollars australiens et une bague ANTON à prendre ! Plutôt en réussite au Crown Casino de Melbourne, Mike Del Vecchio devrait faire mieux que l'an dernier puisqu'il se présentera en position de chipleader.
L'Américain a repris le maillot jaune in-extremis en doublant sur Hamish Crawshaw à la bulle de la table finale. Sur la main suivante, Robert Glasspool s'est empalé avec contre
chez Matthew Wakeman, il manquera l'ultime journée de compétition.
Del Vecchio a emballé 5,465,000 jetons, de quoi passer devant le vainqueur WSOP Europe Andrew Hinrichsen (5,300,000). Derrière on retrouve un trio compact composé de Matthew Wakeman (4,010,000), Clinton Taylor (3,845,000) et Hamish Crawshaw (3,640,000). Gyeong Byeong (1,540,000) et la star mais néanmoins short-stack Bryn Kenney (920,000 pour 18 blindes) sont plus loin au classement...
Kenney ne va pas avoir le temps de récupérer ou de se lamenter puisqu'il a confié qu'il participerait au Jour 2 du 100K Challenge durant la journée off. "Le timing est parfait, je peux gagner les deux tournois", a rigolé le joueur US lors du dernier break.

Le Jour 4 a débuté sur un très gros rythme... et les têtes de série se sont rapidement inclinées. Le Colombien Farid Jattin (31e place, AU$36,200), le vainqueur EPT Dominik Panka (29e place, AU$41,200), le finaliste Main Event WSOP Vojtech Ruzicka (24e place, AU$61,500) ou encore le Néerlandais Pim De Goede (19e place, AU$61,500 qui s'ajoutent aux 2 millions pris online il y a quelques semaines, ndlr)).
Jack Salter, deuxième ici-même en 2014 du Main Event WSOP APAC 2014, s'incline finalement en 18e position alors que l'Australien (double vainqueur WSOP en 2018, ndlr) Michael Addamo tombe lui aussi en demi-finales.
Les deux dernières tables ont été un peu folles avec de nombreux retournement de situation. Norihiro Otani a ainsi doublé avec contre
chez Del Vecchio pour prendre la tête... avant de retomber en bas du leaderboard 15 minutes plus tard, victime d'un badbeat contre Crawshaw qui sera lui en finale. Otani terminera 11e avant de quitter la salle en donnant son hoodie customisé à son bourreau.
David Wang puis Ostby, éliminé par Andrew Hinrichsen, ont ensuite raté l'ultime réunification. En faisant Full House dans un pot disputé par toute la table (en 4-handed), Mike Del Vecchio va finalement reprendre la tête quelques secondes avant que Glasspool n'explose en vol...
Reprise du jeu à 2 heures 30 dans la nuit de dimanche à lundi avec 32 minutes à jouer sur le niveau 25 000/50 000 (5000). Le tournoi sera à suivre en direct sur PokerNews et en streaming avec Jason Somerville aux commentaires.
The remaining four players have bagged and tagged for the night and will be back at lunchtime on Sunday, February 4th, 2019 to play down to a champion. A recap of today's action is to follow.

Robert Glasspool:
Matthew Wakeman:

Hamish Crawshaw raised to 110,000 and was called by Andrew Hinrichsen, Mike Del Vecchio and Gyeong Byeong Lee. The flop brought and the action checked to Crawshaw, who continued for 150,000. Hinrichsen raised to 425,000 and Del Vecchio announced a check-raise to 2,000,000 with very few chips behind. Lee quickly got out of the way, while Crawshaw called and Hinrichsen folded.
After the turn, the remaining 180,000 of Del Vecchio went in and Crawshaw called.
Mike Del Vecchio:
Hamish Crawshaw:
"A deuce on the river would be sick after the last time," Del Vecchio said. He faded the elimination with the river and doubled into the lead on the outer table.

After defending his big blind against a raise by Andrew Hinrichsen, Bjorn Ostby ended up paying off a 100,000 bet on the river and mucked when Hinrichsen showed the
for aces up.
Two hands later, Ostby raised the button to 110,000 and Hinrichsen three-bet to 410,000, Ostby called. The flop came and Hinrichsen continued for 350,000, which prompted the shove of Ostby for around 1,800,000. Hinrichsen snap-called and that was a bad sign for Ostby and his rail.
Bjorn Ostby:
Andrew Hinrichsen:
"Nice hand," Ostby sighed and continued to his rail "I was not going to get away from this spot." He found no help on the turn and
river to join the rail in 9th place for AU$180,000.
Play will continue with hand-for-hand mode as soon as both tables have been balanced.

The board read and Bryn Kenney checked from the big blind to Gyeong Byeong Lee who bet 200,000.
Kenney then check-raised to 675,000 and Lee took a moment before calling.
Kenney showed for king-high and Lee took down the pot with
for a full house, sixes full of queens.

David Wang jammed first to act for what appeared to be 370,000 and Mike Del Vecchio in the big blind called after brief consideration.
David Wang:
Mike Del Vecchio:
As soon as he spotted the superior pocket pair on the other side of the table, Wang sighed. The board came and Wang had to settle for 10th place and payday of AU123,000, missing out on a pay jump of almost 60k.

Gyeong Byeong Lee opened to 120,000 but folded to a three-bet from Bryn Kenney to 360,000.
A few hands later it was Kenney's turn to open to 120,000, and Lee gave it some thought before moving all in. Kenney rechecked his cards before flinging them into the muck. The pair are hovering just under average stack at the moment, with Clinton Taylor the only player at the table with an above average stack.
