Action resumed in the WPT Montreal just minutes ago and the first player to exit today has already been eliminated.
Harpreet Singh Gill started the day very short stacked after being among the leaders for most of the tournament, and got his last 400k (or so) on the button with action folded around to him. He got a call from Rainer Kempe in the bb and the cards were tabled:
Harpreet:
Rainer:
The flop was positive for Harpreet: and the turn kept him in the lead, but the (famous) Ace on the river signalled the end of his tournament.
Just seconds later Randal David Pfeifer was also eliminated. We missed the hand in question but our friends at WPT Live Updates have all the details: Randy Pfeifer Eliminated by Rainer Kempe.
15th place: Randal David Pfeifer, $25,810
