Shooting Star Greg Mueller Eliminated by Nguyen Luong

Shooting Star Greg Mueller is all in on the big blind on a board reading KJ725 for just under 25,700, which is exactly what his opponent Nguyen Luong holds in his stack on the small blind. The TV cameras rush over and once they arrive the two players flip over their hands. Mueller holds 103 and Luong flips over KJ to win the pot. Mueller exits the tournament field, but he signs his Shooting Star bounty T-shirt for Luong on the way out. Luong also receives the $2,500 bounty on Mueller for knocking him out early on Day 1.

Nguyen Luong – 53,000 (530 bb)
