Day 1C of the 2008 Aussie Millions. Chip leader after Days 1A&1B is $90K.
With an hour left in the day, I am sitting with about $85K. I turn the nut straight with the nut flush and royal flush draw. Opponent 3 bet shoves the turn with about $75K in chips and I call. We turn them over and he has Aces & Jacks. Jack of hearts gives me the Royal so he has 3 outs. Jack of Diamonds comes on the river.
2 Hands later I get it all in pre fop with AA against Jeff Madsen's 10J off. Flop comes 7, 8, 9.
GG
I went from being the chip leader by a margin going into Day 2 to being out of the tourney.
