O'Sullivan Hits Wild Runout to Eliminate Buckley in Dying Minutes

Level 15 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
James O'Sullivan
James O'Sullivan

James O'Sullivan raised to 13,000 from early position and found one caller in Mark Buckley in middle position. The two went off to a flop of J?2?7?, on which O'Sullivan continued for 15,000.

Buckley then raised to 33,000 before O'Sullivan responded with a three-bet to 75,000. Buckley took some time before announcing his all-in for 195,000 total.

O'Sullivan let out a big sigh and pondered the situation for a couple of minutes. Eventually, he slammed in calling chips to put his opponent at risk.

Mark Buckley: 9?8?
James O'Sullivan: A?K?

Miraculously, O'sullivan's ace-high was still the best hand after four bets went in on the flop. Buckley celebrated as the 10? brought him his straight, but O'Sullivan had the last laugh as he hit a three-outer for Broadway when the Q? river completed the board.

Buckley left the tournament area with a disgusted look on his face, while O'Sullivan secured a monster chip lead at the end of Day 1a.

Bucur Busts Chevalier

Level 13 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Liam Chevalier was all-in for 35,500 chips from the small blind and at risk against Constantine Bucur, who looked him up from early position.

Liam Chevalier: Q?6?
Constatine Bucur: Q?Q?

It was the worst-case scenario for Chevalier, and he was drawing dead on the 2?4?2?7? turn. He stood up and packed his belongings while the meaningless 5? river completed the board.

Tuit Joins the Rail

Level 12 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

The action folded to Zeik Tuit in the small blind, and he pushed all in for his final 45,000 chips. Lande Dejonghe sat in the big blind and made a swift call to put his opponent at risk.

Zeik Tuit: Q?4?
Lander Dejonghe: A?7?

Dejonghe paired his seven on the 8?3?7? flop and was upgraded to two pair on the 9?A? runout.

Tuit was sent home late on Day 1a, as were many others before him.

Farrell Makes Charvatis Reenter

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
John Farrell
John Farrell

Matthew Greig made a bet of 8,000 from under the gun on a board of 4?6?5?5?. John Farrell then called from the next seat over before Christoforos Charvatis shoved all in for 29,500 from middle position.

Greig quickly got out of the way, but Farrell went into the tank.

"I've got a flush draw and trips, I can't fold," he ultimately concluded before slamming in some calling chips.

John Farrell: 7?5?
Christoforos Charvatis: A?6?

Farrell already had the best hand, as Charvatis was drawing to just a six. The 3? river sealed his fate as he headed to the reentry desk.

Farrell, meanwhile, expanded his stack to two and a half starting stacks.

Black in the Lead After Eliminating O'Connor

Level 3 : Blinds 100/300, 300 ante
Andy Black
Andy Black

Jacquie O'Connor was down to just 6,500 chips, which she pushed in from early position. The action then folded to Andy Black in the small blind, who made the call to put O'Connor at risk.

Jacquie O'Connor: K?J?
Andy Black: 10?10?

Black flopped a set on 10?3?4?, but O'Connor turned some outs on the 9? turn. Her straight did not come in on the 5? river, however, resulting in her elimination.

Black, on the other hand, raked in even more chips as the Irish poker legend and Irish Poker Tour ambassador was sitting on more than twice the starting stack.
