Tony G Eliminated

Tony G
Tony G
On a board of {Q-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds} {3-?} {6-?}, Tony G was all in against Robin Keston.

Tony G: {Q-Clubs} {6-Diamonds} {5-Hearts} {3-Hearts}
Keston: {A-Hearts} {Q-Spades} {J-Clubs} {5-Diamonds}

Keston's flopped full house defeats the lower full house of Tony G, eliminating him from the tournament.

The man who won the last significant pot of the day last night has kicked off today in the same form by winning the first significant pot of play today.

The man is Barry Greenstein, who found his chips in the middle on a flop of {9-Hearts}{4-Spades}{5-Spades}. Greenstein tabled {4-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{A-Clubs}{K-Spades} for bottom set. His opponent, Jonas Entin, revealed a very impressive {9-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{6-Spades} for flush draw and wrap.

Entin had outs in every direction and was a favorite in the hand, but didn't want to see the {5-Hearts} fall on the turn to give Greenstein a full house.

The river bricked the {a-Diamonds} and Greenstein takes down a huge pot to double through to around 290,000 with Entin now on life support.
