Day 2 of Bounty Hunting

The second day of action for the $1,650 Bounty tournament kicks off at 2:00 p.m. local time. The start time has been bumped up two hours from 4:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m.

The final four tables will be playing a shoot-out format from here on out. Each table of eight will play down until only two players remain. Those two fortunate souls will earn a seat at the final table.

Some of the notables still in action will be Jonathan "xMONSTERxDONGx" Karamalikis, Jason Gray, Neil Channing and David Steicke. It would be foolish to forget about Team PokerStars Pro Grant Levy, who is also in the mix and seated at Steicke's table.

Everyone left is already in the money and earning at least AUD $4,002. First place is a hefty AUD $122,700. We'll see you back here for the coverage of the tournament, but in the mean while, use the menu on the right to check out our coverage of the other events here at the 2010 Aussie Millions!

Vince Larosa Eliminated

We've had an elimination on the first hand of play down at the farthest table away from the media desk.

Vince Larosa was all in preflop with {A-?} {K-?} and called by his opponent holding the same hand, but suited in diamonds. Larosa was unsuited. The flop landed with three diamonds, making a flush against Laroas and eliminating him from the tournament.

Ekram Doubles Through Kelly

Aidan Kelly raised to 10,000 from middle position and then Kamyar Ekram called all in for his last 6,100 in the cutoff seat. Everyone else folded and the two were heads up with Ekram being at risk.

Ekram held {A-Diamonds} {A-Hearts} and was in a great spot to double up against the {A-Spades} {Q-Clubs} of Kelly.

The board ran out {10-Spades} {5-Diamonds} {2-Diamonds} {2-Hearts} {10-Hearts} and Ekram doubled up. With the blinds and antes, he now has around 20,000. Kelly slipped to 240,000.

Karamalikis Makin' Moves

Jonathan "xMONSTERxDONGx" Karamalikis and Stefan Huber saw a flop of {A-Hearts} {7-Spades} {2-Diamonds}. Karamalikis was first to act and fired 12,500. HUber raised to 27,500. Karamalikis checked the stack of Huber and then reraised enough to put Huber all in. Huber instantly folded and Karamalikis showed {4-?} {2-?}.

Huber slipped to 70,000 and Karamalikis up to 435,000.
