Give Me a Break, Give Me a Break

Ask and ye shall receive. Players are now on their first break of the day, which will last 20 minutes. We'll be back then!
Hello, Phil "Unabomber" Laak!
Level 10
: 600/1,200, 0 ante
We haven't had much to report on Phil "Unabomber" Laak today, but he is holding steady over at Table #283. We understand that he is checking our updates on his fancy iPad, so we thought it only polie to say hello. "Hello, Mr. Unabomber!"
Seidel Four-Bets to Take It Down
Erik Seidel opened for 2,800 in middle position only to have John Dwyer three-bet to 7,100 from the button. After the blinds got out of the way, Seidel put in a four-bet to 19,800, which was enough to get Dwyer to fold.

Negreanu 1/14 for the Day
Mike Watson was in early position and opened for a raise to 2,700. Action folded all the way around to Daniel Negreanu in the big blind and he decided to make the call. When the 
was put out on the flop, Negreau check-called a bet of 3,000 from Watson, leading to the 
on the turn.
Both players quickly checked, as they did on the 
river. Negreanu showed 
for a pair of jacks and it was good enough to take down the pot. Negreanu was quick to note that it was the first hand of fourteen player that he had won here on Day 2.

Haxton Pays Off Adeniya
We caught this hand on the river with a board reading 
. Isaac Haxton was first to act and bet 7,500 only to be raised to 26,700 by Martins Adeniya in the cutoff. Haxton thought long and hard before annoucing a call.
Adeniya revealed 
for a rivered Broadway straight. Haxton let out a sigh before tossing his cards in the muck.

Defending Champion Out; Frankenberger Follows
Level 10
: 600/1,200, 0 ante
We're not sure how it happened, but we can confirm that last year's $10,000 Pot-Limit Hold'em Champion, Valdemar Kwaysser, has been eliminated from the tournament.
Likewise, World Poker Tour Player-of-the-Year Andy Frankenberger was sent to the rail when he lost 
to the 
of David Benyamine in a blind versus blind battle.

The Sun Sets on Young
Justin Young was all in preflop for about 15,000 with 
and up against the 
of Sunny Chattha. It was a good spot for Young, but the 
flop gave Chattha some added straight outs. However, it was the turn that would ultimately lead to Young's demise as it paired Chattha to give him the lead. The 
blanked on the river and Young was eliminated here in Level 10.
