First Player Busts

Player Count Tops 1,100

TD Supreme Tab Duchateau announced that today's player count has topped 660, so the total player count for this event has already crested 1,100, with a long line of players still waiting to register.

Mark Hansen

One player has already been dispatched in a very brutal way. Picking up the action on the river, the board showed K Q T 8 T. The player in seat 8, the big blind, checked to Mark Hansen (Chester Springs, PA) who fired 1,600. Then seat 8 check-raised to 5k straight. After a bit of thought, Mark kicked it on up to 15k. Seat 8 quickly moved all-in and Mark insta-called.

The big blind held A 3 for the flopped nut flush, but Mark held pocket Kings for the rivered full boat. The player in seat 8 was stunned by his misfortune as he became the first player to report to the rail today. Mark has just about doubled his starting stack of 25k.
