Big swings and plenty of action highlighted Day 2 of Event #35: $2,500 Mixed Big Bet, where Canadian Drew Scott holds the lead among the final 17 players.

Scott bagged 1,340,000 chips after mounting a charge late in the night thanks to a pair of big hands against Schuyler Thornton. First, Scott earned three-quarters of a Big O pot to avoid elimination. Just over an hour later, Scott doubled through Thornton with aces up. He now holds a narrow lead over Galen Hall, with plenty of other notable names giving chase.

A total of six bracelet winners remain in the final 17, including Rami Boukai, Keith Lehr, Scott Bohlman, Renan Bruschi and Day 1 chip leader Richard Ashby.
