The final two from each heat bring their chips with them to the final heat, hence why you see David Oppenheim, James Bord, Patrik Antonius and Barny Boatman in the counts.
Peter Jetten raised it up to 1,200, Tom Dwan called from the button, and Eli Elezra called from the small blind. The flop came and everyone checked. The did nothing either, and everyone checked again.
The on the river drew a bet of 1,600 out of Elezra which was good enough to take it down.
Action is clearly fairly tight in the early going.
Although the first level was not action-packed, we will say Peter Jetten seems to be the most aggressive player at the table raising it up almost every hand. On the final hand of the level, Andy Bloch three-bet him, and Jetten released quickly.
