First All-in, First All-out

Level 1 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Brian Etheridge earned the dubious honor of being the first knockout of the event, just 12 minutes into play.

Etheridge began the action against Amir Abbassi with a raise. He popped Abbassi's three-bet with another raise, before responding to Abbassi's five-bet with an all-in shove. Abbassi made the call.

Brian Etheridge: AKAll in
Amir Abbassi: AA

Etheridge did get some hope on the runout of 4310J, picking up a straight draw on the turn, but the 4 on the river sent him out of the tournament.

Etheridge quickly registered again, using up the one reentry available in this event.
