Day 1 Started

Welcome To the 2021 PokerStars NJSCOOP Event #36-H: $200 NLHE [Super Tuesday], $17.5K Gtd

NJSCOOP 2021
NJSCOOP 2021

It's time for another night of action for the 2021 PokerStars New Jersey Spring Championship of Online Poker (NJSCOOP), with the capstone event of Event #36-H: $200 NLHE [Super Tuesday], $17.5K Gtd set to begin at 8 p.m. ET.

Registration is open for all in the state of New Jersey, with this evening's NJSCOOP episode of the weekly "Super Tuesday" event being the second of the series. A week ago to the day, "ACE"10276 topped a field of 145 in last week's similar version, earning $5,590 for their efforts as the overall prize pool of $26,970, which beat its identical guarantee by more than 50%.

Players receive starting stacks of 25,000 with blinds beginning at 80/160 (20 ante) and escalating every 12 minutes all tournament long. Late registration is open for three hours and 15 minutes, closing roughly near the end of Level 15 (1,250/2,500/325). Should players need, up to five re-entries are available during that time frame, meaning every player may fire a total of six bullets into this event.

PokerNews will be on hand to provide updates on all the action until just one player remained, so be sure to stick around.

"MartinChatwn" Gets the First Elimination

"MartinChatwn"
"MartinChatwn"

In Level 2 with blinds of 100/200 and an ante of 25, action folded to "MartinChatwn" in the cutoff, who opened to 500. Dan "monkeyman067" Sewnig three-bet to 2,100 in the small blind and "MartinChatwn" called.

The flop came {q-Spades}{5-Hearts}{j-Clubs} and Sewnig continuation-bet 1,818. "MartinChatwn" raised to 4,300 and Sewnig called.

Both players checked the turn {5-Spades} and the river fell {8-Hearts}. Sewnig checked again and "MartinChatwn" over-bet jammed for 18,910. Sewnig went into the tank, faced with a decision for his stack of slightly less. After activating his time bank, he found a call.

Dan "monkeyman067" Sewnig: {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts}
"MartinChatwn": {j-Spades}{j-Hearts}

Sewnig's queens up were no good to the full house of "MartinChatwn" and he became the first player eliminated in the tournament. However, he wasted no time firing bullet number two, and received a new 25K with which to play as a result.
