Yori Epskamp

Level 7 : 400/800, 100 ante

The American pondered for twenty seconds, then called it off with . To his disgust, Mateos flipped open for the rivered straight, gobbling up all of Kruk's chips in the process.

Even More Eliminations

Will Shillibier

Level 7 : 400/800, 100 ante

The tournament clock says that there are around 380 players remaining, but what's perhaps more important is that it also says that the total number of entrants has crossed the 500 player mark, beating the record set this time last year. With registration open until the start of Day 2, that record looks set to be smashed as the tournament has currently 517 entrants, including 61 re-entries.

Some of the eliminations from the field since dinner include November Niner Zvi Stern and Super High Roller Bowl champion Rainer Kempe. Players have the option of re-entering, if they haven't already.
