Bummer for Friends at WSOP

Both of my friends played on day 1 at the WSOP, both did not make it out of day one. Aaron went out at about 3:30pm. He had his chip count up to 23,000 and just happened to play a pot with a guy who had him covered which at 3:30 is rare that someone else at your table is going to have more than 23,000. Aaron had 99, the other guy had JJ. Flop came 9 high. Aaron checked the guy bet, Aaron raised it to 3,000, the guy then raised Aaron 7,000, Aaron moved in and the guy called. Aaron had the guy down to two outs and a shitty J came off on the turn. OUT.

Jason, my other friend did not have his stack over 17,000 all day. He played to 12:30am but got knocked out by Clonie Gowen when his AK ran into her QQ. OUT.

O well I guess there is next year. Talk to you soon. SJ
