Leblanc Elimination Concludes Day 1a
Niveau 14
: Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Remy Leblanc open-jammed for 55,000 from under the gun and Ahmed Karrim called in the cutoff. Simon Solomon then put his last 56,000 in from the big blind and Karrim added the single chip to put two players at risk.
Remy Leblanc: 7♥7♦ 
Simon Solomon: A♥A♣
Ahmed Karrim: A♠J♥
The Q♦10♣5♣ flop gave Karrim a gutshot and the 9♣ turn added further outs to potentially knock out two players. He hit a king on the river, but it was the K♣ to give Solomon a flush for the triple up. Leblanc was eliminated and that reduced the field to the last 20 players who will now bag and tag the chips for the night.
