The eliminations are coming thick and fast now and almost immediately after the departure of Xiaoyang Luo we lose Yang Wang.
Wang had literally just moved into the big blind, taking the seat of the recently departed Shuo Li and action folded around to Raghav Bansal in the small blind who put the Wang all-in. The Chinese player peeked down at his cards and quickly called.
Yang Wang: 
Raghav Bansal: 
The trend of the best hand being beaten continued when the board ran out 
to give the Indian player the straight and Wang headed for the exit to collect the same money as previous casualty Attenborough.

to give Bansal a straight draw to go with his pair and while Luo briefly took the lead when the 
landed on the turn the 
river gave the Indian player the straight and he busted another. Talk about catching hands at the right time. Luo headed for the cash desk to collect the equivalent of US$ 37,440 and Bansal stacked up to over 1.9 million.
on the turn completed a straight for Quenneville. Loeser needed a queen and a queen only to chop, but the

, Petrangelo checked and Addamo bet 33,000 with around 170,000 behind. Petrangelo moved all in and the Aussie called it off.
failed to improve Yu and he was eliminated in 10th place for HK$330,000 (~42,900). After starting the day with just 10 big blinds, it was a tough grind for the Canadian, who narrowly missed out on the unofficial final table. The remaining players will now combine to one table with just over one minute remaining on the clock for the current level. One further level is scheduled for tonight, or until the next elimination takes place, whichever of the two comes first.
and Jiang took the lead. After the 
turn and 
river, the double up was confirmed and Chen acknowledged that with a "no bed time" and sat back down in his chair.
and the kicker played a crucial role, eliminating Chen in 9th place for HK$390,000 (~$50,700). That concludes Day 2, as the remaining eight players will now bag up and come back tomorrow at 12.30 p.m. local time. There are 45:36 left on the clock for level 20 when the action resumes and the chip counts and a recap of today's action will follow soon.
