Steve Topakas - 21st Place
Steve Topakas - 21st Place
Steve Goldwater and Steve Topakas got it all in preflop, with Goldwater holding the chip edge. Topakas was at risk of being knocked out then, and he flipped over {A-Hearts} {10-Clubs}. Not only was he dominated, but he was up against the preflop nuts, as Goldwater tabled {A-Spades} {A-Clubs}.

The community cards were of no use to Topakas, coming out {6-Spades} {2-Hearts} {Q-Clubs} {J-Clubs} {9-Hearts}. He is eliminated in 21st place, pocketing just over AUD $1,000 for his work today.
