Level 1 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Justin Young
Justin Young

In four-way action to the 6♣6♥3♦2♠ turn with more than 12,000 in the middle, Jacob Gagnon bet 8,000 and forced three folds including by the early chip leader Susan Murphey on this very table.

Justin Young sat between Murphey and Gagnon during that hand to then get into a heavy preflop raising war that ended up with all of the chips in the middle between Young and Benjamin Purser.

Benjamin Purser: Q♠Q♥ All in
Justin Young: A♦A♠

The K♥J♦2♦3♠7♣ board changed nothing and Purser became the fourth player to bust on Day 1b.
