Action folded to Daniel Negreanu on the button and he raised to 7,700. The big blind responded by making it 18,000 and Negreanu made the call. When the flop fell {9-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}{8-Spades}, the big blind bet 21,000 and Negreanu called as the dealer burned and turned the {Q-Hearts}. This time the big blind check-called Negreanu's bet of 34,000, leading to the {6-Spades} on the river. The big blind checked, Negreanu bet 75,000, and the big blind tank-called. Negreanu turned over {A-Clubs}{Q-Spades} and the big blind mucked. Negreanu won a nice pot right at the end of the night and bagged up 360,700.

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 300 ante

Day 2 at The Big Event Main Event in Bell Gardens, California concluded today after the returning field 221 players was whittled down to about 70. With the first 13 levels now complete in the $5,000 buy-in event, Victor Ramdin leads the pack with a whopping 1,070,000 in chips. He’ll be the man to catch when everyone returns for Day 3’s action on Tuesday at 12:00 PM local time.

Ramdin had himself a great day of action. Over the course of the six levels played out on Day 2, he climbed from 81,000 to the top of the board. One big pot that helped Ramdin get himself to the top came after he turned a set of sixes and stacked a player holding a straight and flush draw.

Some of the other notable players who have moved on to Day 3 are Daniel Negreanu, Shawn Busse, David Paredes, Alex Kamberis, Greg Debora and Anh Van Nguyen. Negreanu will be one of the larger stacks with 360,700 in chips.

Those was failed to survive the day included Allen Kessler, Kathy Liebert, Dwyte Pilgrim, Amnon Filippi, Nach Barbero and Barry Greenstein. 2010 NAPT LA winner Joe Tehan also fell to the rail. He was eliminated by Joseph Cheong during Level 10.

With the money line set at 56, that means the remaining players have still yet to cash. That will most certainly happen on Tuesday where the plan is to work all the way down until the final 24 is reached. However long that may take, you can bet that the PokerNews Live Reporting Team is ready to provide you with all the live coverage straight from the tournament floor.
