Early Slew of Eliminations
Level 13
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Hakim Zoufri pushed in his stack of 470,000 preflop and was called by Mikalai Vaskaboinikau.
Hakim Zoufri: A♣K♦
Mikalai Vaskaboinikau: J♠J♣
Zoufri stood up as soon as Vaskaboinikau hit a set on the 8♥Q♦J♥ flop, and he was right to do so as the 7♠9♥ runout did not bring in his gutshot.
One table over, George Tomescu got his 800,000 or so chips in the middle from the big blind against Oshri Lahmani under the gun, and was at risk.
George Tomescu: K♥J♠
Oshri Lahmani: 10♥10♦
The 3♠7♥5♥9♥ turn gave Tomescu some extra outs, but the 3♦ river was a big blank, sending him to the rail. He joined several other players who busted in the first minutes of Day 2, all of whom are listed below.
