Day 2 Completed
Just moments ago 48 players counted their stacks of various sizes, bagged and tagged their chips and made their way out of the Crown Perth Poker Room as Day 2 of the ANZPT Perth Main Event has drawn to a close. Leading the way, with 258,200 in chips, is notable local player Sal Fazzino
Considering the day started with 145 hopefuls, there were a huge amount of disappointed players on Day 2. One of the first players eliminated was Daniel Levy and from there, names such as Tony Tartaglia, Mile Krstanoski, Jesse McKenzie, Patrick Crivell, Minh Nguyen, Nathan Gubieski and Full Tilt ANZPT Ambassador Tom Grigg were also eliminated. One of the largest stacks heading into the day was Oliver Gill and he quickly skyrocketed towards the peak of the chip leader board early on Day 2, but then within just a few hands also found himself on the rail.
While all these players weren’t able to survive Day 2, players like Patrick Mahoney, Luke Spano and Stephen Woodhead all thrived and finished with big stacks. They trail Fazzino who will be looking to improve on his recent 14th place finish in the Aussie Millions Main Event.
Some of the others who are still alive and in contention to take home the ANZPT Perth title include Dean Blatt, recent ANZPT Auckland champion David Lim, Dylan "WhiteRabbito" Honeyman, Justin Walch, Brian Mcallister, Tristan Bain and the last remaining ladies Tamara Volkhoff and Lorinda Johnson. Be sure to check out the most recent post in the live reporting blog for the full end-of-day chip counts and the Day 3 seating draw.
All the aforementioned players, and all the other surviving contenders, will be hoping to make it into the 27 money-paying positions and then move toward the six-figure first-place prize.
By the time tomorrow’s Day 3 is in the books we will have reach the final table, so be sure to join us from 12:30 p.m. as we continue to bring you all the live updates from the 2014 ANZPT Perth Main Event.

The flop was but it was the turn card which gave Maclean trips to the disgust of the player with aces. The river was a bricky to see two gone as a fortunate Maclean climbs to around 140,000 chips.
