And "The Grinder" wasn't even involved. The madness began with Lou Procopio opening to 10,000 from middle position. Randy Pfeifer three-bet to 26,000 on the button, Kyaw Naing called from the big blind, and Procopio opted to four-bet to 82,000. Pfeifer folded and Naing called.
The two players saw a flop of 
Naing deliberated before moving all in, and Procopio snapped called for his last 64,000. Procopio tabled 
and had picked off Naing's bluff with 
. The board bricked out for Naing and Procopio climbed into the top five of the counts with around 320,000. Naing still has about 290,000.

Michael Mizrachi began the day as the chip leader, but he's been having a tough time at the feature table today. Lou Procopio and Kyaw Naing have both been giving him fits, and "The Grinder" has slipped all the way down to around 130,000.

For the second time in the first two levels today, Nachman Berlin has sucked out huge on Andy Spears to double up and stay alive.
Now it appears he has some chips to play with.
After getting it in with top pair against bottom two and turning trips earlier in the day, Berlin found himself facing a 12,500-chip bet from Spears on a 
board.
His response was to shove 
and Spears called instantly with 
. It appeared Berlin's luck had finally run out, but the 
river made his straight to save him again.
And while he now sits on 200k, Spears is out of the chip lead falling under the 300k mark.
