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: A♠K♠
Amir Abbassi: A♦A♥
Etheridge did get some hope on the runout of 4♣3♥10♠J♥, 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.
