Round One
Match 1(a) saw thekellster89 eliminate top cash gamer 1Kevboy in 41mins, the final blow dealt when 1Kevboy flopped top pair to his opponent's bottom pair w/flush draw, which got there on the turn.
Meanwhile in match 1(c), one of PKR's WSOP Main Event qualifiers thekabalist sent ThrowOnD packing in 46mins. The Italian winner, twice a Big Shot finalist, took an 11K/9K chip lead into the final hand, where his JJ outran his opponent's KK when all-in pre flop, a jack falling on the flop to brutally terminate the Brit's chances.
In match 1(h), mooted as the toughest draw of all, Team Pro Pokey85 defeated kresch after 51mins of play. After a rocky start, Henrik overturned a 7K/13K deficit with second pair after inducing the bluff from his opponent, and enjoyed a commanding chip lead for the remainder of the match.
In match 1(i), LaiBin overcame the challenge of EspenKR in just 34mins while in a battle of the cash regs, NLALEXMOHNL defeated MoonKenny in a 1hr 33min marathon to conclude match 1(j).
ScottyStarburst emerged victorious from his battle with fellow cash gamer and PKR veteran kingkong79 in match 1(m), while the eagerly-anticipated matchup between Goldeneyehd and mackthemonk went the way of Goldeneyehd.
In match 1(p), giveyourcash failed to overcome Magicftw, the German winner busting his British cash reg opponent on the hour mark (at even stacks) with a flopped straight to giveyourcash's turned two pair.
In one of the longest matchups, zomgchipriffle fell at the first hurdle, beaten by scrotusD as the even-stacked pair got it all in preflop, scrotus's sixes holding against zomgchipriffle's fours.
