Daniel Neilson and Ankit Ahuja First Duo to Bust

Level 1: 100 / 200 ante: 200

With 13,400 in the middle to the J♠ 7♠ 5♥ 9♣ turn, Daniel Neilson bets 11,000 and Shmuel Bechor calls. Neilson then bets the 5♦ river for 28,100 with a single T-100 chip behind and Bechor sigh-calls.


Neilson reveals A♦ Q♦ and Bechor has that beat with the K♠ K♥ .


"I thought I was gonna be the first one to bust, but you might leave before me," Ankit Ahuja jokes with a short stack on the same table.


"No, you will still be first," Neilson replies, set to be forced all-in the very next hand.


Junghyun An then raises to 800 in the first hand after sitting down and Ahuja jams for the last 5,000, the initial raiser Rahul Bhatia folds and An calls.


Ankit Ahuja: A♥ 8♥

Daniel Neilson: Q♣ 6♥

Junghyun An: A♣ A♦


The A♠ Q♠ 4♠ 5♥ J♠ board knocks out two players at once near the end of level one.


"What did you have for breakfast?" another player jokes to An.
