Level 6
: 250/500, 50 ante
It has been a quick two hours of play here at the Rio All-Suite Hotel and Casino. The first level of the day is in the books and players are currently on their first 20-minute break.
Here's a look at some of the highlights from today's first level:
- On the first hand of the day, online legend Chun Lei Zhou was eliminated from play by Salman Behbehani.
- 2012 World Series of Poker Main Event champion Greg Merson fell at the hands of Justin Scott. Merson's ace-nine failed to catch up to Scott's ace-queen.
- Mike Gorodinsky, Jan Heitman, and Aaron Jones were all sent to the rail early in Day 2.
- The 45th Annual WSOP is the biggest ever, establishing several key records.
