William Kassouf (pictured during what he called "a terrible day" on Day 1b) came into Day 2 of the PokerStars Championship Bahamas Main Event with "ten big blinds and a dream", but that dream is all over after he was eliminated in the first hand he played here in the Bahamas.

Kassouf moved all-in from the hijack position for his remaining 9,500 chips after passing a couple of hands, and he was called in the cut-off by Stefan Peukert, who, once the other players had folded, turned over {10-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}.

"How can you have a pair there?" asked Kassouf, declaring "eight-high like a boss!" and turning over {8-Spades}{6-Spades}. He needed a lot of help, but didn't get a thing across the board of {2-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}. Kassouf wished his brief Day 2 opponents the best of luck and slipped away.
