Double Knockout Ends Day 1; Money Bubble Bursts

With play going hand-for-hand to burst the bubble and end the day's play, Caleb Bruno Furth, who won this event a year ago, shoved all of his final 176,000 chips into a flop of 5♣J♠3♣. Richard Acovino made the call.

Caleb Furth: A♣K♦7♠2♣
Richard Acovino: A♠Q♠J♥2♦

Both players had the nut low draw, but Acovino was ahead with a pair of jacks. His hand improved when the dealer tabled the J♣ on the turn. He locked up the entire pot when the river K♥ meant the low didn't qualify.

Simultaneously, Laura Beckett got her last 31,000 in preflop with James Daniloff trying to bust her and burst the money bubble.

Laura Beckett: A♣A♥5♥3♣ All in
James Daniloff: A♦10♣8♦2♣

Beckett needed to win this hand to stay alive. The board ran out 7♣6♥Q♠9♥K♣ to give Daniloff a straight on the turn, ending Beckett's tournament run on the bubble.

Because Beckett and Furth bust on the same hand, they ended up splitting the min-cash and each took home $1,511.
