Ioannoy and Solomon Out Before the Money on Day 1c
Level 18
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Nic Ioannoy vanished from the outer tables when he called all-in with A♠3♦. He was dominated by Yoni Lipshitz who remained ahead all the way.
At almost the same time on the feature table, Simon Solomon was all-in with 8♥8♠ via open shove for 145,000 against the Q♥Q♠ of Kevin Boyer. The French player had chipped up recently to pull ahead of Solomon and prevailed with the superior pocket pair on the J♦3♠2♥3♦A♠ board to reduce the field to the last 17 players.
