We didn't witness the hand, but according to a player at the table, Kristy Arnett got the last of her chips all in preflop with queen-jack suited, three ways against pocket eights and pocket nines. The nines held and Arnett makes an early exit and is off to work.

While we are in the first 20-minute break of the day, the orange section shows about 20 open tables. The players left total on the screens won't be updated until registration is closed, but this should already give you an impression of the action that has been going on through the first two hours of play.
We are up to 867 entries for the moment and registration is open for another two levels. Fellow PokerNews blogger Tim Duckworth has updated his stack via Twitter and we take the opportunity to share it with you as well:
Ok ok! No make up, in sweat shorts, and greasy hair-- good thing I'm not on camera this year! I'm in! Event #1! Whoo!Follow @KristyArnett
Shortly after fixing herself up for our cameras, Kristy Arnett found herself in a blind versus blind situation. The action folded around to the small blind who called, and when Arnett raised to 250 from the big blind her opponent called. The flop was . The small blind checked to Arnett who bet 300 and her opponent again called. The turn brought the and both players checked.
After the fell on the river, Arnett's opponent bet 500 and Arnett called, but mucked after her opponent showed for the ace-high flush.
Arnett is looking fresh, even after the small hit to her stack.
