Murariu No More in Day 1b

Dan Murariu

The seat that formerly belonged to Dan Murariu is now vacant and fellow countryman Christopher Heidelbacher was kind enough to provide the details. According to Heidelbacher, Murariu defended out of the blinds with :::Kh{10h} and flopped top pair, only for initial raiser Emmett Mullin to snap-call his shove with a flopped set of treys.

No runner-runner miracle kept Murariu in the running and he will have to re-enter on Day 1c to take another shot at a record third Unibet Open Main Event title. He will very likely be joined by fellow two-time champion Mateusz Moolhuizen in 90 minutes from now.
