Igor Kurganov may be sleeping on the couch tonight after he just eliminated his girlfriend Liv Boeree from Day 1a of the 2019 World Series of Poker Main Event.
The poker couple, who won the 2017 WSOP $10,000 Tag Team event for a pair of gold bracelets, was seated at opposite ends of the same table when Brian Altman raised to 1,000 from middle position.

Michael Jordan, John Elway, Shane Warne. All regarded as one of the best sportsmen of their generation depending on which country you're from.
The sport of cricket isn't popular in the United States, but nearly everywhere else in the world, cricket has a religion-like status. From the 1990's to late 2000's, Warne was at the top of the game wielding an arsenal of trick deliveries that baffled batsman on cricket pitches all around the world.
As Warne's cricketing career slowed down, his poker career began to pick up. Warne has been a mainstay at both his local casino in Melbourne, Australia, and the WSOP each year.
Always trekking out to play the Main Event, his appearance in the field today was a short lived one as he was just eliminated by David Lolis.
