to dispatch the Russian. That was the last hand for table six as it broke immediately afterwards.

flop, and then Schemion led out for 33,000 on the 
turn. Peters took his time before making the call, and the 
completed the board on the river. Schemion fired a second time for 75,000, and it did the trick as Peters sent his cards to the muck.

Altergott: 
Gruissem: 
"You got €100,000 in with seven-deuce?" said Gruissem, gently ribbing his opponent.
It looked as though Altergott would double up as the flop came 
and the turn gave him two pair with the

PokerStars Team Online player Isaac Haxton was in the Hijack and he stared Hansen down for a while before making it 44,000. The other players folded and Hansen bounced around in his seat before making the call.
The flop was 
. Hansen spread his chips on the felt in front of him and picked out a bet of 46,000. Haxton went in the tank and took a couple of minutes to make his decision, When he reached it he announced, “All in.”

We're only a few minutes into Day 2, and already there has been a big cooler. It happened over at the feature table between Ole Schemion, Paul Newey, and Mike "Timex" McDonald.
It began when Schemion opened for 14,000 under the gun only to have Newey three-bet to 40,000 from the cutoff. When action reached McDonald in the big blind, he moved all in for 178,000. Schemion asked how much Newey had back (it was 209,000) and then moved all in over the top. Newey found himself between a rock and a hard place, but after thinking about it for a few moments he decided to call off.
Newey: 
Schemion: 
McDonald: 
McDonald woke up with kings at the perfect time, but of course he needed to dodge an ace, queen, and spades. As for Newey, he was looking for some help to stay alive against Schemion in the side pot. The 
flop was dry, though Newey tried to find the silver lining.
"There's a spade," he said, referencing his shot of hitting a runner-runner flush. Unfortunately for him, those hopes died when the 
blanked on the turn. The river failed to change anything, and Schemion took down the 62,000 side pot to eliminate Newey, while McDonald tripled with the 544,000 main pot.
