Marc Fratter Eliminated in 9th Place ($23,933), Ed Jatho Eliminated in 8th Place ($35,900)

Two Players Eliminated on Hand #1
Two Players Eliminated on Hand #1
Hand #1:

Marc Fratter has the button in Seat 7.

Timothy Miles raises to 22,000, Ed Jatho re-raises to 45,000, Fratter calls on the button, Miles re-raises to 120,000, Jatho moves all-in, Fratter calls, and Miles calls.

Miles: {A-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}

Ed: {J-Spades}{J-Clubs}

Mark: {Q-Clubs}{Q-Spades}

The flop is {6-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{2-Hearts}. The turn is the {5-Clubs}. There is over 1.4 million in the pot.

"Give us a face card, please!" cries Jatho.

The river, though is the {6-Diamonds}, and we lose two players on the very first deal! Since Jatho had more chips to start the hand than Fratter, he'll receive 8th place money, while Fratter will finish 9th.

After the hand, Floyd Vanderford says to his opponents, "This is my first final table. Do they all start like this?"
