Grospellier & Perkins Gone
Just prior to the break, we had two players hit the felt. The first to go was Team PokerStars Pro Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier. Unfortunately we missed the details surrounding his exit, but we did catch the elimination of Bill Perkins.
It happened in the last hand before the break when Perkins raised, Jeff Gross called and the flop came down 
. Gross checked, Perkins bet 4,000 and Gross woke up with a check-raise to 16,000. Perkins responded by moving all in for 120,000 or so and Gross called. "I gave him the sorry look," Gross would say after the hand.
Gross: 
Perkins: 
Perkins had the best hand preflop, but Gross spiked a set to jump out in front. Neither the 
turn nor 
river helped the man they call "Perky," and he hit the rail. Given there are unlimited re-entries here on Day 1, we'd be surprised if both Grospellier and Perkins didn't re-enter.
