Delaney: makes a play to get the pay
Ben 'CNT_CRUSHER' Delaney made it 2,100 to go under the gun preflop, only to find Andrew 'Adgee' Jeffreys calling from late position.

Julius Colman has been eliminated after moving all in over a preflop raise from middle position. The opponent called and tabled and Colman tabled .
"Drop the six" called Kenneth Damm who had the $10 prop bet with Colman.
He didn't the need the six, the board ran out to send Colman out of day 1A of the main event.
Colman made good on his wager much to the delight of Damm who turned to his table and said tounge in cheek "You guys may bubble on day two, but i've already locked in a $30 win!".

High stakes degen gamblor?
We have some last longer action going between Kenneth Damm, Julian Colman and another player who has already busted.
All three players were short-stacked at the time they made the deal to add a bit extra spice to the tournament.
The stakes for the bet?
Not a $1,000 each, nor $100 each, they've really got the high stakes going at $10 a head. The winner might be able to buy three drinks at the Las Vegas Bar at that price.
Coleman is looking good to scoop the massive side bet at the moment sitting with 15,300 to Damm's 6,500.
Walsh: a minor setback in the grand scheme of things
It was three-way action between Lisa Walsh and two other players who all limped in to see a flop of .
Walsh led out for 10,000 but quickly let go of her hand after her opponent in the cutoff moved all in over the top.
As a result, Walsh is now down to 50,000 in chips. However she wouldn't be too worried, having confirmed the stories floating around the Crown Poker Room of her stellar form in two recent cash game sessions.
Andrew Jeffreys is continuing here in the main event
Preflop Andrew Jeffreys opened to 1,500 from middle position with the small blind making the call. The big blind then popped it up to 6,600 with both other players making the call.

Jeffreys needed to hit to stay alive and the turn got him out in front in a way he probably didn't expect. It didn't matter his flush draw came in on the river anyway.
Krautschneider: KO'ed
Karl Krautschneider has been eliminated from this event after another big hand played out on table 29.
Krautschneider had his last 19,350 in the middle before the flop, along with the opponent on the small blind who was also all in for 12,225 and Jie Gao who had them both covered.
