Dimatteo Eliminated

Level 5 : 150/300, 25 ante

Jonathan Dimatteo has exhausted both of his entries here on Day 1a. He busted his second bullet on a {q-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} flop seen by four players. Dimatteo shoved from early position for more than the pot, 7,425. The next player called immediately and the other two folded.

Dimatteo: {a-Clubs}{3-Clubs}
Opponent: {j-Spades}{2-Spades}

"Wow," Dimatteo said, seeing what he had been called by. The bottom pair stayed best as the {7-Clubs} turn was followed by a {6-Spades} river.

Hodge Gets a Shove Through

Level 5 : 150/300, 25 ante

Mark Hodge limped under the gun, the player on the button made it 625, and both blinds called. Hodge shoved all in for about 6,000, and everyone folded.

"It's the only move I've got," Hodge said. "I'm a one-trick pony."

Leroi Takes One Immediately

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

Charlie Leroi had just recently sat down when a player in the cutoff made it 800 to go and got called from the next two players. Leroi made it 3,800 in the big blind, and only the player on the button called. The flop came {4-Hearts}{9-Spades}{5-Hearts}, and Leroi bet 4,300. His opponent called fairly quickly. The turn was a {6-Diamonds}. Leroi moved all in for 11,900. The player on the button tanked about two minutes and folded.

"No bluff," Leroi said.

"I know it's not a bluff," his opponent replied, suggesting that wasn't what he was worried about.

"I'll show one time," Leroi said, turning over {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}.

Players are on break for 10 minutes.
