Cary Katz has just tripled up through the British pairing of Chris Moorman and Liv Boeree and this is how it happened.
Katz raised to 12,000 in early position and the action folded around to Boeree who was just about to eat her lunch. She stopped opening her food to allow herself to three-bet to 31,000. One fold later and Chris Moorman decided to four-bet 'pot' and the amount was 112,000. Katz and Boeree flew into the pot quicker than a rat up a drainpipe and we had a three-way all-in with Katz and Boeree at risk of elimination.
"I think you both have the same hand," said Katz and do you know what…he was right.

Moorman's terrible luck continued and he has 158,000 chips, Boeree is perilous on 41,500 and Katz is now up to 124,500.

Daniel Weinman finds a double up through Moorman
Ali Eslami limped into the pot from first position and Daniel Weinman made the isolation raise to 11,500 in the hijack seat. One fold later and Chris Moorman started to show an interest in the pot from the button. He made a cold four-bet of 20,500, Eslami folded, Weinman moved all-in and Moorman called.

Board:
Weinman moved up to 159,000 and Moorman moved down to 208,000.
Paul Volpe just doubled up through Shaun Deeb in the very first hand after the break. The action was all pre flop with Volpe going with and Deeb fancying his . The board ran out and Volpe was up to 65,000.
Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier is up to an ominous looking 160,000 after eliminated Steve O'Dwyer. The action all occurred pre flop with O'Dwyer holding and ElkY holding (suited). An ace turned up somewhere on the board and O'Dwyer was out.

Liv Boeree has a top ten starting stack going into Day 2
Welcome to Day 2 of Event #17 $10,000 Pot-Limit Hold'em; the event where the famous words, "all-in," are replaced by the single word, "pot." The removal of the ability to shove your chips into the middle, and the absence of antes, means that this format is a little slower than its Cadillac cousin. But despite the reduction in speed the quality of poker on display is amazing, and this is because of the calibre of players left in the 69 man and woman strong field.
In the top ten we have the chip leader Steve Landfish with two World Series of Poker final table appearances under his belt, multiple bracelet winner Farzad Bonyadi, one of the most feared players on the planet and last years WSOPE Main Event runner-up Chris Moorman, bracelet winner and World Poker Tour (WPT) champion David Benyamine, poker's golden couple and double European Poker Tour (EPT) winners Kevin MacPhee and Liv Boeree and finally multiple bracelet winner and all-time money leader Erik Seidel.
If you add Phil Ivey, Shaun Deeb, Sorel Mizzi, JP Kelly, Olivier Busquet, Antonio Esfandiari et al into the mix then this is some tournament and it is going to take some winning!
The Day 2 action starts at 13:00 PM direct from the Amazon room. The Pokernews team will be on site to bring you the very best coverage on the planet so stay tuned.
