Chidiac Exits Early
Dany Chidiac was eliminated only 15 minutes into the day and it was Ronald Keijzer that claimed the chips. According to Keijzer, he check-called the flop and hey got it in after the turn with Keijzer holding a straight and clubs nut flush draw, while Chidiac had two pair and an open-ender.
Over on table two, the action was also quite explosive. With around 5,000 in the middle and the flop showing 
, Mohamed Benih Benmetir bet 5,000 and Pim van Holsteyn raised the pot. Benmetir moved all in and van Holsteyn called.
Mohamed Benih Benmetir: 
Pim van Holsteyn: 
Both had flopped the straight and Benmetir had the superior straight redraw, while van Holsteyn had the clubs flush draw. The 
turn and 
river run out changed nothing and they chopped it up.
