David Gorr has just won the Aussie Millions main event!
On the last hand James Keys raised to 225,000 preflop and Gorr made the call. The flop was dealt 7
6
3
and Gorr checked. Keys bet 275,000 and Gorr called. The turn fell K and Gorr checked again.
Keys bet 650,000 and Gorr check-raised to 1.65 million. Keys went into the tank but eventually moved all in and Gorr made the call. Their cards:
Keys: 7 3
Gorr: K 4
River: 4
Keys was eliminated in second place and he took home $1,035,000 AUD. That made Gorr the 2011 Aussie Millions champion and he took home the top prize worth $2 million AUD. This is by far the largest cash of Gorr’s career, who had cashed multiple times in previous Aussie Millions preliminary events.
Congratulations to the champion, David Gorr. That concludes Card Player’s coverage of the Aussie Millions tournament series here at the Crown Casino in Melbourne, Australia.
James Keys raised to 225,000 preflop and David Gorr reraised to 750,000. Key then got it all in and Gorr made the all-in call. Their cards:
Gorr: A
Q
Keys: K Q
Board: J 9 3 2 6
Gorr doubled up to take the chip lead on the hand with 8.2 million, edging ahead of the 6.2 million of his opponent.
David Gorr was all in preflop and James Keys had him covered. Their cards:
Keys: Q J
Gorr: A 9
Board: 10 8 6 5 4
Gorr doubled up on the hand to grow his stack above 3 million. Keys still holds a healthy lead with more than 11 million.
Both players have doubled up in a relatively short amount of time and the complexion of the heads-up match has changed drastically. First, James Keys moved all in with K-5 on a K-5-3 flop against the A-K of Gorr. The board ran out 2-J and Keys capped off his comeback stretch by moving above 13 million after the hand.
Gorr was down to 960,000 when it was his turn to move all in preflop against Keys. Their cards:
Keys: K 3
Gorr: K J
Board: J 10 4 6 A
Gorr was up above 2 million after the hand, but he faced an uphill battle against Keys 12,420,000.
It was a wild ride to nowhere when James Keys was all in for his tournament life with A 10 against the A J of David Gorr. The board ran out 10 9 8 7 J to put a straight on the board and chop up the pot.
The blinds are now 50,000-100,000 with a 10,000 ante for the start of level 27.
David Gorr: 10,200,000
James Keys: 4,400,000
The players are now on a 15-minute break.
There has been little big action during the heads-up match so far. There has been a lot of folding between these final two players as they have been tight and feeling each other out. James Keys has made some progress on the comeback trail, and he has grown his stack to 4 million. He still has a long way to go against David Gorr’s more than 10 million-chip holdings.
It’s a lot to a little here for the final heads-up match. Their chip counts:
David Gorr: 12,000,000
James Keys: 2,400,000
