Aces Hold Up, de Goede Celebrates
Dutchman Pim de Goede just scored the first knockout of the day, and he celebrated jokingly with the players at his table, as the atmosphere is very easy going and jovial.
The action started with the player under the gun who raised to 300, and the lady to the player's left three-bet to 600.
De Goede summarized the lady's play as loose and aggressive, and a third player got involved who called the three-bet with a little over 5,000 left behind.
The Dutchman four-bet with pocket aces to 2,600, and after the initial raiser folded the lady and the short stack both called.
The flop brought out 
and De Goede checked to the lady who bet 5,000, followed by the short stack calling all in for 2,500. De Goede check-raised all in for 13,000 chips and his shove was called right away.
De Goede was in front with his aces against the pocket eights of the short stack, and the 
of the aggressive lady. The turn brought a 
and the river a 
to give De Goede a huge pot in the second level of the day.
Players are allowed to re-enter this event all the way up until the start of the second day, so eliminations are not final just yet as we saw the first player exit the room.
