Defending Champ is Down... for Now
We just lost the defending champ of this event, Abraham Araya.
We didn't see the hand when it happened, but Matt Lawrence and Doug "Rico" Carli were kind enough to fill us in on the details. According to them, Araya moved all in under the gun for 6,150 with 
and received a call from the player in the small blind, who held the paltry 
.
The 
flop looked good for Araya as he made two pair, but running clubs on the turn and river gave his opponent a flush. Araya may have fallen here in Flight A, but we expect he'll fire a second bullet tomorrow in Flight B.
