The "Black"list Gets Longer

Look into my eyes...
Look into my eyes...
Andy Black has just eliminated another opponent from the tournament, hitting a set of deuces on a {J-Hearts}{A-Clubs}{2-Spades} flop against his opponent's {A-Hearts}{8-Hearts}. All of the money went in on the flop and the board ran out {9-Clubs}, {5-Diamonds} giving Black the checkmark for the hand.

By our estimations, Black has eliminated at least six opponents from today's Day 1a field and currently sits with 85,000 in chips.

Elezra Takes a Hit

On a board showing {6-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{3-Clubs}, Michael Chrisanthopoulos led out with a 6,000 bet. Eli Elezra then kicks it up to 25,000 which prompts Michael to move all in over the top for 12,000 more.

Eli made the call and tabled {J-Hearts}{J-Clubs}; Chrisanthopoulos produced one better, revealing {Q-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}.

The turn brought the {Q-Hearts} which was an interesting card, as it gave Michael a set, but also gave Elezra some additional outs for a flush. The river was the {8-Clubs}, not one that Elezra was looking for, and he was left with 23,500 in chips.
