PokerNews Senior Live Events & Digital Executive Brad Whitehouse has made a strong start to the day, eliminating 2023 WSOP Europe Main Event champion Simone Andrian.
Action folded to the former champion in the small blind, and he shoved for around 37,000. Whitehouse called from the big blind and the cards were tabled.
Simone Andrian: Ax7x
Brad Whitehouse: QxJx
Whitehouse paired his queen on the runout, while Andrian failed to connect and was sent to the rail.
Whitehouse has a modest $5,630 in recorded live tournament earnings, just edging past the buy-in for the Main Event. He also has two recorded tournament wins, one in a £30 event in the UK and another in Estonia in a PLO 4/5/6 tournament.

Michel Molenaar opened to 5,000 from under the gun and was called by Martins Adeniya from the cutoff. Klemens Roiter three-bet to 15,000 from the button and only Adeniya called.

The 5♦ came in on the turn and Adineya checked, and then snap-called when Roiter put in the last of his chips.
Klemens Roiter: Q♦Q♥
Martins Adeniya: A♦8♦
Adeniya had Roiter drawing to two outs, and he locked up the pot after the 7♦ completed the board.
