Aurelius Wins Three-Way; Aprij First to Bust
Level 1
: Blinds 100/300, 300 ante
Marcus Aurelius raised to 900 in middle position. Johann Shamne called in the cutoff, and Marko Milanovic three-bet to 5,100 on the button. Aurelius and Shamne both called before the trio checked through the 7♥2♣K♥ flop.
Aurelius then bet 5,000 on the 3♠ turn. Shamne quickly folded, but Milanovic called. Aurelius sized up to 13,000 on the A♠ river. Milanovic returned his cards to the muck as well, conceding the sizable pot to Aurelius.
Meanwhile, over at another table, Mindaugas Aprij was the first player eliminated on Day 1e.
