Patrick Healy - 5th Place
Patrick Healy - 5th Place

The 2012 Aussie Millions Main Event is down to four players after the elimination of Patrick Healy in fifth place.

From under the gun, Healy put in an opening raise to 160,000 and Oliver Speidel made the call from the button after standing up from his seat to get a look at Healy's stack. The flop came down {9-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{4-Hearts} and Healy bet 100,000. Speidel raised to 350,000 and Healy snap-shoved all in for around 1.8 million or so. Speidel quickly called.

Speidel had flopped top two pair with the {9-Hearts}{8-Hearts} and had Healy nearly dead to rights with the {A-Spades}{K-Diamonds}. The turn {5-Diamonds} meant that Healt was drawing dead and could no longer win the hand. The river landed with the {K-Clubs} to officially seal the deal.

Healy walked away with A$300,000 for his finish while Speidel climbed to over 10 million in chips.
