Elvis Toomas knew what he was going to do in the first hand of the Main Event before the cards were even dealt. Toomas recently lost a last-longer prop bet with girlfriend Christina Gollins, which meant he had to move all-in blind in the first hand.
The action folded to Toomas on the button, who kept his word and promptly pushed his stack of 40,000 chips in the middle for a 200x raise. It only took a few seconds for Kristopher Templeman in the small blind to follow suit and commit his full stack to the middle, while the big blind folded.

It was bad news for Toomas as his jack-eight had run smack into the cowboys of Templeman. The flop of did not help Toomas and the runout of sealed his fate as the first player out on Day 1b.
Gollins, meanwhile, is playing a tighter style and sits a few tables away from where her other half busted.

Kristopher Templeman was off to a fire-hot start after doubling up in the first hand through Elvis Toomas, who moved in blind after losing a last-longer prop bet.
But the hot start was short-lived and Templeman had lost all of those chips along with the rest of his stack before the end of Level 1.
