Royal Flush Shoots Pampliega to Chip Lead

We've just seen our first royal flush of the 2009 Aussie Millions! Normally it can be very difficult to get paid off with a royal flush, but Luis Pampliega didn't have that problem as he sent Graham Woodbine crashing to the rail in dramatic fashion.

We caught the action on the river with the board reading {8-Spades}{K-Spades}{Q-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}{A-Spades}. Woodbine had checked to Pampliega who bet out 15,000. Woodbine then check-raised all in for 42,000 in total and Pampliega insta-called and tabled {10-Spades}{J-Spades} for the royal! Woodbine was in shock after turning a full house with his {K-Diamonds}{K-Clubs} only to see it shrivel up on the river.

Pampliega becomes a runaway chip leader with over 115,000 chips!
