Matura First to Hit Rail on Day 1g

Level 2: 300/600 (600)
Entries: 194/195

Walter Matura became the first player to hit the rail on Day 1g near the beginning of Level 2.

There was already about 50,000 in the pot when the 2 7 5 was dealt on the flop. Matura checked before a player with the nickname “Compari” jammed for 71,000. Matura thought about it for a minute before he opted to call off for a little less.

Walter Matura: Q Q
Compari: A A

Matura was far behind and neither the K turn nor the K river helped. Compari chipped up to about double a starting stack, while Matura will need to re-enter if he wishes to advance out of the Day 1g flight.

Compari – 200,000
Walter Matura – 0
