O’Kearney Runs Into Meijer’s Big Slick

Entries: 49/174

Level 11: 3,000/5,000 (5,000)
Entries: 49/177

Dara O’Kearney entered at the last moment for his second bullet of Day 1a but unfortunately, this didn’t go to plan for the poker author and The Chip Race cohost.

Remko Meijer jammed for 15 big blinds from late position before O’Kearney called off his starting stack from the big blind.

Dara O’Kearney: A♣10♦
Remko Meijer: A♦K♣

Ace-ten didn’t get there on the K♦6♦7♥Q♣5♣ runout and O’Kearney will have to try again during one of the other five opening flights for a chance to advance to Day 2 and beyond.

Remko Meijer – 135,000
Dara O’Kearney – 0
