Twitch Troll turned moderator Adrian 'Croaks' Altgeld is playing the turbo flight in the hopes of making it through to Day 2 and he was delighted to share he eliminated Chris Moneymaker from the tournament.

The turbo flight already has 125 entries and they are playing another 8 and a half levels before they finish the day and bag up. Altgeld still has a long way to go to make Day 2.

'TjennoE' Eliminated

Level 13 : 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante
Tjenno Eskes
Tjenno Eskes

Tjenno Eskes entered the last break with a little under the starting stack of 30,000 but the exit was quick after the break. He defended {9-Hearts}{5-Hearts} from the big blind and got it in on a {5-}{2-}{2-} flop against {a-}{j-}. A jack fell on the river and that's all she wrote for Eskes in the Main Event.

He could still jump in the turbo flight but instead, he's railing the community sit and gos that are played on the feature table and streamed on Lex Veldhuis his Twitch channel. You can watch the stream under the live stream tab at the top of the page.

Damiano ‘DAMMO_23’ Aloi had never been outside his native Australia prior to last week. Now he’s here in London, 10,100 miles from home, having the time of his life.

“Has it been worth it? Let me tell you, it has been worth every penny,” he tells PokerStars Blog over a beer in the Lex Live 2 players’ lounge at Aspers Casino. “And it cost a few pennies to get here from Australia.”

'Glaspeer' Chips Up

Level 12 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Peter Glasbergen saw the under-the-gun player raise to 11,000 and he called from the next seat in early position. The others all folded, including the players on the blinds.

The flop was dealt {j-Hearts}{6-Spades}{5-Hearts} and both players checked in quick fashion to see the {k-Diamonds} on the turn. The initial raiser made a smaller bet of 6,000 on the turn and 'Glaspeer' called to see the {a-Clubs} complete the board on the river.

The under-the-gun player checked and Glasbergen took over the betting initiative with a bet of 13,000 and that was enough to take down the pot.

Van Veen Takes Down PokerStars Ambassador 'Pleb_Method'

Level 12 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

The flop was {8-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{6-Clubs} when Tom 'Pleb_Method' Hayward got all of his chips in the middle against Kevin van Veen. Hayward was drawing thin against Van Veen with his {a-Clubs}{10-Hearts} against {8-Spades}{8-Hearts}.

The turn, however, was the magical {9-Hearts} that gave Hayward the straight, but the {6-Spades} on the river paired the board and Van Veen won the pot with a full house.

He eliminated the PokerStars Ambassador but Hayward can still jump into the turbo flight that is going on with already 80 players registered.
