Peter Traply - Eliminated
Peter Traply - Eliminated
On the first hand of play, Darren Grant limped into the pot from early position and Felix Osterland raised to 50,000 from middle position. Peter Traply called from the button and when action was back to Grant, he pushed all in for a total of 485,000.

Osterland threw his hand away, but Traply called for his whole stack of about 160,000. The players showed:

Traply: {Q-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds}
Grant: {K-Spades} {K-Hearts}

Traply got no help from the community cards as the board ran out {8-Spades} {8-Diamonds} {2-Hearts} {9-Hearts} {5-Hearts} and he was eliminated. Darren Grant chipped up to just over 820,000 on the hand.
