An Early Exit For Eames
The man who finished 3rd in this event last year has had an early exit on Day 2 this year. John Eames started the day with around 21 big blinds and that stack was moved into the middle in just the first few hands of play.
PokerStars qualifier Eddie Tasbas raised to 1,500 in the cutoff seat and Eames moved all-in from the button. The small blind folded before Grzegorz Cichocki also moved all-in from the big blind. Tasbas folded and Eames asked Cichocki if he had a pair and the nod from the Pole looked like a death sentence for Eames.

So Eames was hoping for the same sprinkling of luck that befell Prager just one hand before. The dealer had other ideas and the board of made sure that the player with the best hand won and that was Cichocki. Eames is now left looking for flights out of freezing cold Copenhagen to head for freezing cold Southport.
