Barnhart Busts; Will Take One More Shot at Title Defense
After players in early position and middle position limped, last year's champ, Sam Barnhart, moved all in from the hijack for a paltry 2,250. The player in the small blind made the call while the rest of the field got out of the way.

| Barnhart | ![]() ![]() |

Barnhart seemed to know his day was done, and sure enough, the board ran out 



and he was eliminated from the Main Event; however, Barnhart indicated that he would be returning for the second flight, giving himself one more shot at repeating last year's glory.
