Teun Mulder was the one opening the action with a raise to 21,000 from the hijack but it escalated quickly when Darinko Filipovic three-bet to 100,000. Big blind Sergiu Cornea put 604,000 in the middle which was enough to cover both Mulder and Filipovic.
Mulder got out of the way but Filipovic quickly called and they opened up.
Darinko Filipovic: 
Sergiu Cornea: 
The board ran out 
and Filipovic secured a double up but he left Cornea behind short.

Blaz Zerjav also belongs to one of the early players to be eliminated on Day 1b. Zerjav was seen entering the €330 Turbo Bounty tournament that is running on the side and it was confirmed that he indeed busted out of the Main Event.
Zerjav made a name for himself after he turned a $5 investment into more than $1.3 million on during the 2018 partypoker MILLIONS Online.
He does have another shot at partypoker MILLIONS glory if he chooses to reenter on Day 2.

Jack Sinclair opened to 20,000 on the small blind, and Ryan Riess called from the big blind.
Sinclair bet 25,000 on the 
flop, and Riess called. Sinclair continued the aggression with a 45,000 bet on the 
turn, which Riess again called.
Sinclair bet 175,000, nearly pot size, on the 
river. Riess used a couple of time bank chips as he thought it through, before making the fold.
