Another day behind the computer at the ANZPT Queensland Main Event and another day of tournament poker.

Heath ‘TassieDevil’ Chick was in the field today, and consequently, after missing out on a piece of his 100k collect in Melbourne, I bought a small 4% share for $100.

The field was fairly stacked with the likes of Lee Nelson, Graeme ‘Kiwi G’ Putt and Celina Lin playing, but rather than going through some of the ways the above mentioned players took down pots with Aces, I thought I’d share with you a hand I wrote that I found rather amusing.

It is quite obvious that the current players on Table 9 didn’t follow the ANZPT Melbourne coverage when Heath ‘TassieDevil’ Chick earned the moniker of Heath ‘No Set No Bet’ Chick.

Currently struggling on just above his starting stack, Chick recently opened to 800 and found one caller in Derek Cheung to see a flop of 7♣ 4♠ 6♠.

Chick fired out 1,250, only to have Cheung raise to 3,000 to prompt a near insta-fold from Chick.

With Chick’s previous range during his runner-up finish in Melbourne being a set plus, it can only be inferred that Cheung held 5♠ 8♠ . . . ballsy play from the Hong Kong native!

Heath, Kirsty and myself wondered down the road to find a place to eat, and after searching for a while we found a place where there was a $12 steak night special.

We all ordered a steak and a beer . . . and they both went down perfectly!

With Cold Rock across the road, there was no way we could resist and walked home enjoying some ice-cream as the weather began to cool.
