Day 1A Ends in Dramatic Fashion; Players Bag
After an open from Vinay Gautam to 15,000 and a call from Christopher Harrington, Roger Conroy moved all in for 258,500.
After some thought, Gautam made the call to put him at risk and the action was then on Harrington.
"Man, what a shit spot," Harrington sighed as he stared at his hand. "Alright, screw it," he announced as he also made the call as the shortest stack and all cards were tabled.
Harrington: A♣J♦
Conroy: 6♦6♣
Gautam: A♠K♦
The runout of 4♠5♠T♦Q♠9♥ gave Conroy the win with his sixes while Harrington was eliminated.
With his elimination, the remaining two players bagged up for Day 2 as follows:
Conroy - 723,000
Gautam - 277,000
