Still One Short

[user66118]

Good news, kids.

Luke Schwartz has taken his seat, and the television crew has chosen to film his table for now. It must still be a bit early for the antics, because FullFlush is quiet as a mouse so far.

We're still waiting on Gus Hansen, the only player not in his chair yet. Hansen better hurry; his stack is being blinded off down toward twenty big blinds with a quickness.

Dyer Gone

After a bet from Paul Berende from the cutoff, and a call from the button, Greg Dyer in the small blind moved all-in. Berende then put all his chips at risk against the button, who folded. So it was Dyer and Berende to the flop, with Dyer all-in for his tournament life.

Dyer: {k-Hearts}

Berende:

The

board was no help to Dyer and now there is an empty seat at the table.

We didn't catch the action or who it was against, but the shortest stack going into the day, Andrew Feldman, was making his exit as we were walking by.
