Randall Emmett raised UTG+1 to 2,000, a player called from middle position, John Richards called from the cutoff, Pasquale Caiazza called from the button, and James Romero reraised from the small blind to 12,000.

Emmett called, and everyone else folded.

The flop came Ks5c2d, Romero bet 11,000, Emmett moved all in for about 12,000, and Romero snap-called with 10s10h.

Emmett turned over Jd2h (pair of deuces), and he needed to improve to stay alive.

The turn card was the 4c, the river card is the 8h, and the pocket tens held up for Romero to win the pot and eliminate Emmett.

James Romero  –  117,000  (234 bb)
Randall Emmett  –  Eliminated

That was Emmett’s first bullet, so he may re-enter at any point until registration closes around 9:00 pm.
