Level 8 : 300/600, 75 ante

Dan Heimiller just got knocked out by Rob Young and he told us what went down.

"I had pocket fours, and I went up against Rob Young from Dusk Till Dawn, who had ace-nine."

"Hit spiked the ace on the turn," Heimiller said, before leaving the tournament area.

Heimiller will now venture out into Amsterdam, as we was enquiring about food festivals, beer gardens and other events in the city.

Level 8 : 300/600, 75 ante

Bryn Kenney walked by the media room, mentioned he busted but was still in time two register two online tournaments, and would be back here tomorrow morning to register just before Day 2. He fist bumped the reporters and made his way to the exit while playing on his iPhone.

There was no time to ask him what had happened as everything just went by so fast, but luckily for us, one of our colleagues got the details.

Sorel Mizzi opened to 1,600 and Bryn Kenney made it 4,200 to go. Mizzi made the call. With on the flop, Mizzi check-called a bet of 4,500 from Kenney.

The hit the turn and Mizzi checked again. Kenney wasn't backing down though and bet 10,000 with about 10,000 behind. Not much later, he called the rest as Mizzi check-shoved.

Sorel Mizzi:
Bryn Kenney:

Kenny needed a diamond to stay alive, but wouldn't get it. Instead the popped up and Kenney hit the rail. Mizzi is one of the bigger stacks in the room after this hand.
