We have just lost our first player of the day and it is the New Yorker Clayton Fletcher who has that unenviable honor.

Leading up to the elimination, Nghi Van Tran had raised in two consecutive hands. Then when Van Tran raised for the third time Fletcher moved all-in from the cutoff and Van Tran called.

Fletcher only had one live card and it did not materialise on the board resulting in his elimination.
