The remaining 32 players have bagged and tagged and will return tomorrow at 2:00pm AEDST, where they will play a shootout format until two players remain on each table to form the final table.
Be sure to tune in early tomorrow morning for all the action here at PokerNews - for now, we're heading off to the bar. See you there!
Farrugia:
Kelly:
The flop of
improved neither hand, but Kelly caught the 
on the turn to take the lead! Needing any eight, the river 
fell on the river, eliminating the last remaining female in the tournament.And that means that's stumps! Time to wrap this puppy up.
Huber opened to 8,000 and Saward moved in for 17,000. Huber made the call tabling
to sit marginally in front of the 
of the all in player.Saward looked set to go out through the
flop and 
turn, only to be bailed out by the river.He has 37,000, Huber has 114,000.
Vogt had got extremely short in chips hoping to hold out for a pay jump. It didn't happen Tristan Bain made the call with
, which looked to match up well for Vogt's 
.That was until Bain caught a runner-runner straight on the
board.Bain moves up to 80,000.
The shooutout starts at 32 players. That means we will be done rather soon.
Payne:
Chronis:
The board ran out
, sending Chronis packing and Payne's stack up to 228,000.
Farrugia:
Karamalikis:
The board ran out
and Farrugia doubled up to 90,000 in chips. Karamalikis probably wouldn't be too worried - he's still on 245,000 in chips.
Everybody else got out of the day and the cards were tabled:
Pfauder:
Huber:
The board was spread
; Pfauder was sent to the rail and Huber is now on 113,000.
The roller-coaster ride for Chronis has hit another peak with him eliminating Michael Tureniec.
Tureniec found his
no match for Chronis' on the 
flop. The 
turn and river would change nothing, sending Tureniec to the rail.
