First Elimination Goes to Penescu

Level 1 : 100/100, 0 ante

Cosmin Penescu had already taken a huge chunk of an opponents stack, and after an open, Penescu three-bet and called the shove for that opponent's remaining 4,100 chips.

The initial raiser folded and Penescu called.

Cosmin Penescu: {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}
Opponent: {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}

The board ran out {k-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{a-Hearts}{5-Clubs} with Penescu sending the first player of the day to the rail, moving up to around double starting stack.
