How Matt Eardley took the Chip Lead of Day 1a

Ramin Hajiyev just walked past the media table with a ticket in the hand and confirmed that he busted in the very last hand of the previous day against Matt Eardley. Hajiyev's pocket kings ended up second best after Eardley flopped a set of jacks before the remaining chips went in.

"I was so happy to go into Day 2 with 90 big blinds and not do all this over again," Hajiyev added and will be in action shortly on Day 1b.
