Wiechers Second Casualty on Day 1b

Level 2 : 100/100, 100 ante
Erwin Wiechers - playing French National Championship

Erwin Wiechers had won his entry to the Main Event in a live satellite and quickly lost a big portion of his stack with aces versus queens according to Theodore McQuilkin. Things got even worse for the Dutchman, as he has become the second casualty of the day.

A raise and three callers saw Wiechers squeeze the small blind and Thiago Signorelli Viana in the cutoff reraised. Wiechers jammed for the last 12,000 and was snap-called.

Erwin Wiechers: {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}
Thiago Signorelli Viana: {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}

The board came {k-Clubs}{10-Spades}{3-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{9-Spades} and Wiechers was eliminated. Paul Klann also hit the rail soon after to make it three bustouts in the first two levels so far.
