Day 1 Chip Leader Feras Abid Eliminated
Level 14
: 1,500/3,000, 400 ante
Finland's Feras Abid headed into Day 2 with the chip lead but this wasn't enough to get into the money let alone bag chips for Day 3.
He lost more than half his stack before getting the rest of his chips in with ace-king only to find himself very behind the pocket kings held by Lithuania's Arunas Garunkstis.
Abid quickly left the tournament area after the board was of no help while Garunkstis, who was holding an average stack throughout most of the day, propelled himself near the top of the leaderboard with a stack of 275,000.
