Puk Nabuurs has become the first-player to be eliminated since the cash prizes were injected into the equation. Nabuurs raises to 8,000 in first position and Francesco Favia raises to 20,000 on the button.

Nabuurs reacts by four-bet jamming, and the call from Favia is instant.

Showdown

Favia: [Jc] [Jh]
Nabuurs: [Ah] [8c]

Board: [9s] [7s] [5c] [Kc] [Qd]

Favia stands up and celebrates with an onlooking comrade and Nabuurs takes the lonely walk out of the arena to collect his $6,872 cheque.
