David Clarke
Kevin Grabel was at the top of the chip counts just moments ago but a lot can change in just one level of play and Grabel’s big stack took quite a hit. He was left with just 25,000 and moved all in from late position holding 
. Unfortunately for Grabel he ran right into the 
of Dave Clarke.
The dealer fanned the 
flop and Grabel flopped top pair but he would still need to improve to stay alive. The turn 
and river 
were no help to Grabel and he was eliminated.
There’s still plenty of time to re-enter so we may not have seen the last of Grabel just yet here on Day 1A of Event 1.
David Clark- 110,000
Kevin Grabel- Eliminated
