Hopes alive
Joep Van Almenkerk, previous finalist, doubles up at the expense of Eben Lottering and stays alive. Eben flopped two pairs and Joep top pair with an open-ended straight draw. The river did deliver.
Darren Chandler has been eliminated in 76th position. His Ace 10 did not improve against his opponents A K despite getting extra assistance with an open-ended straight draw on the flop.
