2002 Main Event winner Robert Varkonyi has been eliminated from the tournament by Kenny Hallaert. It was Varkonyi who started the action by limping in under the gun. Hallaert raised to 6.500 on the button, Varkonyi limp-shoved for around 35.000, and Hallaert called.

Robert Varkonyi: {A-Spades}{10-Spades}
Kenny Hallaert: {A-}{Q-}

The board ran out {K-}{Q-}{9-}{K-}{8-} and Hallaert's ace-queen held up to send Varkonyi to the rail.
