Daniel Dvoress won't continue his sucess in High Roller tournaments from before the World Series of Poker, at least not for now. as the Canadian was the first player to be eliminated twice from this event.

Julian Thomas was also sent to the rail, followed by Jean-Noel Thorel and Alexandru Papazian.

Thorel raised from early position and Jan Eric Schwippert called in the big blind. What followed was a check-raise by Schwippert on the {J-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} flop and Thorel called before calling both bets on the {8-Clubs} turn and the {2-Hearts} river. Schwippert showed {A-Hearts}{J-Spades} and Thorel mucked nines to run out of chips for the second time as well.

Only two minutes later, Papazian busted from the very same table after shoving from the button with {K-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}. Antoine Saout had {8-Clubs}{8-Spades} in the blinds and held up thanks to a board of {A-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}{Q-Hearts}.
