Level 1 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Three-time WSOP bracelet winner Anson Tsang came sprinting towards his table as he didn't know the chips were in play already with only two players seated. By the time he arrived, Tsang was in the big blind and checked after Pushpinder Singh had limped in from the small blind.

Both checked the Q♠J♦2♣ flop and Singh check-called the 9♥ turn for 400. After the J♣ river, they checked again and Singh tabled the 9♦4♠3♠2♦. Tsang had him outkicked with the 9♣7♠3♣2♥ and won the pot to start his day.
