It took less than ten minutes for the first player to bust. James Hoeppner was all in preflop [KcKh] with against the [AdAs] of Mark Shoichet.

But there was still a little drama, as the board came [Ks9d8hAc4c] — Hoeppner flopped a set to take the lead, only to see his tournament end with an ace on the turn.

Mark Shoichet is obviously our early chipleader with about 60,000 in chips.
