Negreanu Gone; Eliminator Anssi to Build Stack

This time I know for sure - the chip leader at this time is one Anssi Tuulivirda, with just under 50,000. Half of this came from Daniel Negreanu - I know this only because of the Negreanu-shaped hole next to Patrik Antonius - a very early exit for him, no details as yet, but will ask a tablemate if I can catch one in the break.

Just now I saw Anssi betting pot on a flop of {9-Clubs} {2-Hearts} {8-Hearts} when it was checked to him, only for the small blind to check-raise the pot right back at him. He had to call another 9,100, which amounted to the guy all in, as he only had 2,000 behind. After a lengthy pause that's what he did, showing {A-Hearts} {A-Clubs} {7-Diamonds} {10-Diamonds} , and seeing the heart-drawing {7-Spades} {7-Hearts} {J-Spades} {J-Hearts} . No sets and no flushes on the {Q-Diamonds} {6-Spades} turn and river and another weary player has to trade in his Rebuy Chip. Anssi Tuulivirda a chip menace at this early stage.
