Todd Terry raised with three yellow T1,000 chips in middle position, and Ana Marquez stuck in a three-bet from the blinds. It looked like 9,000, but Terry's response was an all-in shove for 49,000 total.

The move sent Marquez into the tank for a good while, but she would not call. "It smells like ace-king," she said pointing to her nose. She surrendered, and Terry dragged in a few more fighting chips. He started this Day 2 with 22,000, and he's increased that nearly threefold in the first two levels, almost enough for him to crack a smile about. But not quite.

Mickey Doft

Picking up the action on the river of a {9-Clubs} {5-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds} {A-Clubs} {A-Diamonds} board with about 63,000 in the middle, Marco Johnson was in the tank as he was facing a decision of 47,500 from Stephen Chidwick.

After about three minutes in the tank, Johnson called and wasn't thrilled about what he saw. Chidwick tabled {4-Hearts} {4-Spades} for a full house, besting Johnson's holdings to win the pot.
