It took much longer than we anticipated for the first knockout of the day, but latecomer Gabriel Leopore has just taken that unenviable plunge down Bustout Canyon. We were busy watching the Abecassis hand play out at the adjacent table, but we did notice all of Leopore's short stack going in preflop with
