On the first hand of the day, Richard Perkerewicz got it all in preflop in the small blind against Joseph Osterbauer in the big blind who had the covering stack.
Richard Perkerewicz: A♥A♦ 
Joseph Osterbauer: A♠K♣
Perkerewicz was a big favorite to find an early double up, until the dealer put out the K♠9♥K♦ flop, improving Osterbauer to trip kings.
The 6♠ turn and 9♣ river offered no help to Perkerewicz and he was sent to the payout desk.
