Matt Waxman (Day 1a) - Out

The defending champion of the Grand Prix de Paris is gone.

We just saw Matt Waxman exit the Aviation Club de France, and when we went to his table to find out what happened, two-time WPT Champion Marvin Rettenmaier gave us the scoop.

According to Rettenmaier, Waxman four-bet shoved holding {a-}{k-}, and was called by Ekrem Sanioglu, who had {q-}{q-}. The queens held, and Waxman was eliminated.
