Level 6 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Andrej Senic

Matthew Wakeman raised to 2,000 from the cutoff and was called by Andrej Senic on the button.

The flop came {4-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} for Wakeman to continue with a bet of 2,000 which Senic called to see the {9-Hearts} on the turn. Wakeman quickly bet 4,000 and Senic made the call again.

The river completed the board with the {j-Spades}, Wakeman bet 5,000 for Senic to snap-call. Wakeman tabled {a-Hearts}{9-Clubs} for the turned two pair but was behind against the {a-Diamonds}{j-Hearts} of Senic who had rivered the higher two pair.

Over on the other table, Amir Abbas grabbed his jacket and made his way out of the tournament area as he was eliminated.
