A few players that busted recently rejoined shortly after including Kuljinder Sidhu and Ludovic Geilich. The Scot had found a new home just one table over from where he had been before and immediately faced Antoine Vranken in a smaller pot.

Kuljinder Sidhu raised to 1,500 and picked up three callers to find an up and down straight draw with the . The turn completed the straight and one opponent wasn't willing to fold pocket queens.
Fresh off the double, Sidhu called the shove of a short stack for 11,450 with the and flipped against . The board came and the pair of tens gave Sidhu another boost to his second bullet.
The last break of tonight lasts 15 minutes and will be used to race off the T-25 chips. Then, all players return for one more hour of poker fun at the tables before bagging and tagging.
Bryn Kenney was on the same flight back from Macau as Steve O'Dwyer and landed at 7am on Tuesday. O'Dwyer entered after the dinner break and Kenney just now appeared to register for the first time.
Hossein Ensan and Rasmus Agerskov are no longer in today#s field while Matthias de Meulder registered again and sat down next to Jussi Nevanlinna. It was the Finn that raised to 1,600 and picked up two callers including Faraz Jaka.

Bryn Kenney three-bet out of the big blind and then got his stack in after the turn of a board. His opponent on the button looked him up with the for a straight and Kenney needed a king to double up, holding .
The river blanked and Kenney headed to the rail. Whether or not he will buy in again right now or before the start of Day 2 is unknown at this point.
