Level 3: 200/300
Entries: 344
One of the earliest eliminations during the first level was retired NHL player and now-broadcaster Randy Moller, who is an announcer for the Florida Panthers.
Moller had gotten short and was all in from the small blind for 2,800 with , and he needed to improve to stay alive against the of Nickie Irvine on the button.
The board came , and Irvine won the pot with her ace to eliminate Moller.
Nickie Irvine – 14,000 (140 bb)
Randy Moller – Eliminated
Of course, as this is a charity event, there are unlimited re-entries while registration remains open (until 10:00 pm or so). So Moller re-entered and found himself back in the field sitting at the same table as recently retired NHL goalie Roberto Luongo, who has played a respectable amount of poker in his career in addition to 11 seasons with the Florida Panthers.
The field is near the end of Level 3, with 344 entries showing on the tournament clock.
