Eivind Leknes Eliminated

Eivind Leknes, a PokerStars qualifier from Norway is the first to hit the road in Day 2 action. He was unlucky when he got his chips in good holding {Q-Clubs}{Q-Spades} against the {A-Spades}{Q-Diamonds} of Japanese player Yoshihiro Tasaka.

The board ran out {5-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}{5-Spades}{A-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} giving Tasaka the bigger pair and leaving Leknes devastated. Van Marcus was also a little unhappy after he saw the river, saying that he had folded pocket nines!

Leknes was left with only small change and was eliminated a few moments later, again by {A-?}{Q-?} when his opponent made two pair.
