Kellner Wipes Out Two; Franke Bluffs it Off

While we aren't really reporting hands until the final day of the Main Event, we did witness some mayhem in the first hand of the Seniors Event. Kellner rivered a flush to triple up and send both Stig Moen and Biniam Mesfin to the rail on the river first hand. Mesfin got back in before we heard a shout from a different table from The Festival Series founder Martin "Franke" von Zweigbergk.

"So unfair!" Franke said as he briefly walked by.

"What happened?" we asked.

"I bluffed it off and now I have to re-enter," Franke replied. "So unfair!"

Meanwhile, the Seniors Event already has 35 young players in heart battling it out. They began with a 25,000 starting stack and blinds increase slowly at every 25 minutes.
