Livingston Busts Troyanovskiy and Jachtmann

Level 15 : 2,500/5,000, 0 ante
Alexander Livingston
Alexander Livingston

On the flop of {Q-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{5-Spades}, the action checked to Alexander Livingston and he bet 21,000. Vladimir Troyanovskiy moved all in for 54,000 from the cutoff and Jan-Peter Jachtmann reraised all in for 120,000 out of the big blind to pick up a call by Livingston as biggest stack of rhe trio.

Vladimir Troyanovskiy: {A-Hearts}{Q-Spades}{6-Clubs}{3-Spades}
Jan-Peter Jachtmann: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}
Alexander Livingston: {J-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}

Troyanovskiy was in need of running aces to stay in contention, while jachtmann didn't want to see any straight cards for Livingston. Sure enough the {4-Diamonds} fell on the turn and the {A-Clubs} river was a blank to result in a double knockout.

Brutal End for Sevo

Level 15 : 2,500/5,000, 0 ante

Vlado Sevo was all in and at risk with the {A-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{4-Spades} on the flop of {Q-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{J-Hearts} and Liran Twito snap-called. What followed were groans at the table, as Twito turned over {A-Spades}{J-Clubs}{J-Spades}{3-Diamonds} for quads, and the {6-Hearts} turn and {2-Clubs} river were just a formality.

Short stack Mikko Hirvonen was eliminated as well and that reduced the field to the last 34 hopefuls.

Riess Exits Before the End of Day 1

Level 15 : 2,500/5,000, 0 ante
Ryan Riess
Ryan Riess

The cards oif Ryan Riess were already in the muck and his stack was shipped over to Ivan Fedor. According to other players at the table, Riess raised and called a three-bet by Fedor to see a flop of {10-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}. The duo got their stacks in right there with Riess being the one at risk with the nut flush draw.

Fedor held {A-Diamonds}{A-Spades}{9-Spades}{9-Clubs} for middle set and the roller coaster run out of {5-Hearts} turn and {5-Diamonds} river first improved Riess to a flush before Fedor's full house claimed the pot.
