Bleznick Wakes Up With Aces to Knock Out Einhorn on First Hand of the Tournament

Level 1 : Blinds 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante

Sinan Unlu opened to 7,000 before Jared Bleznick who three-bet to 25,000. Action folded to David Einhorn in the small blind, who four-bet to 77,000. Unlu folded and Bleznick decided to then five-bet to 225,000, before Einhorn six-bet all in for his stack of 1,000,000, and Bleznick snap-called.

Jared Bleznick: AA All in
David Einhorn: AK All in

On the very first hand of the tournament, Einhorn found himself all in and crushed against the pocket aces of Bleznick. The 8K2 flop gave Einhorn a glimmer of hope, as he paired his king and also had a backdoor flush draw. However, the 8 on the turn left him needing just another king to stay alive. Unfortunately for Einhorn, the 7 on the river offered no help, and Bleznick secured the double-up, eliminating Einhorn on hand one.
