Nicolas Ludwicki: 
Julien Stropoli: 
Ludwicki's chances were bleak from the start but became absolutely abysmal after the 
flop. The Frenchman needed a runner-runner miracle and opened up those outs with the 
on the turn. A king or eight would give him a straight but the 
landed instead to make Ludwicki the first elimination at the final table.
