Van Hoof Eliminated
Jorryt van Hoof started out short today with just 15,100 in chips. He lost most of those in the first hand of the day.
Van Hoof told us that Ayaz Manji opened from middle position and Brazilian Elcio Luiz Romao made the call on the button. Van Hoof over called from the big blind with 
and a flop of 
with two diamonds appeared. Van Hoof checked and Manji made a bet of 3,600. Romao shoved all in and Van Hoof did the same. Romao folded.
Van Hoof told us he was up against 
but his opponent would win the hand. Romao was somewhat irritated by Van Hoof telling us the hand, thinking the Dutchman told it like it was a bad beat. Van Hoof in fact wasn't phased by the hand at all and was still smiling, despite the fact he only had 2,300 left after the hand.
Those few chips he lost not much later. The Dutch WSOP November Niner shoved his last couple of blinds in with 
and got called by Michaĺ Starzec in the big blind with 
. The flop came eight-high but Starzec made runner runner flush to send Van Hoof to the rail.
