Jelger Wiegersma Wins!! Round One Complete

On a flop of {2-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds} {10-Diamonds} Jelger Wiegersma made it three bets to go and Manny Minaya made the call.

Wiegersma: {Q-Spades} {2-Spades}
Minaya: {Q-Diamonds} {5-Hearts}

Wiegersma was ahead with a pair of deuces. The turn of the {4-Hearts} and the river of the {7-Hearts} missed both players and Wiegersma advances to the second round.

After almost 10 hours of play, we finally have the field for the second round set. We will have a 15 minute break and then begin the second round around 10 p.m. PDT.
