I open KK on btn to 2600, SB goes 10k, BB jam, I call off 60k, SB folds AQ face up. BB then also flips over AQ. Flop comes AQx n holds 🙁 gg

World Poker Tour Season XI Player of the Year Matt Salsberg and Ty Reiman are among those who have been eliminated shortly after the resumption of play.
Blinds: 300/600
Ante: 75
Matthew Burnitz opens to 1,600 from under the gun and Phil Ivey calls from the next seat over. The player in middle position calls, Bruce Kramer calls from the hijack, and Chris Hunichen three-bets all in for 27,650 from the small blind.
Burnitz tanks for about 60 seconds before he folds, while Ivey takes about 30 seconds before calling. Both the middle-position player and Kramer fold.
Hunichen: 
Ivey: 
The board runs out 
, safe for Ivey to score the elimination.

The entrants list continues to grow on Day 1C as the number has now reached 961 entrants.
Among the players to recently take their seat include World Series of Poker Main Event chip leader JC Tran.
Finally made it to the SHRPO. Time to play some poker. Seems like a nicely organized tournament.

I’m out of touch with pop culture. I quietly asked who the 9 seat is at my table. It’s @Nelly_Mo
