Aleksei Smirnov Eliminated
Level 2
: 50/100, 0 ante
It took more than an hour before the first elimination took place with Estonia's Aleksei Smirnov leaving the tournament area.
While we didn't catch his elimination hand, we did overhear Martin "Franke" von Zweigbergk shout from across the room about the hand, "this is unfair!"
We found out that most of Smirnov's stack was lost to mostly to Coolbet founder Jan Svendsen that nailed his runner-runner.
Smirnov can reenter the tournament if he so chooses an unlimited amount of times today, tomorrow, or even on Friday before Day 2 kicks off at 1 p.m.
