Day 2 Started

Day 2 of Jason Somerville's Run It Up Reno Is Here!

Welcome to Day 2 of Jason Somerville's 2015 Run It Up Reno $565 Main Event. After 103 players from 239 entries advanced from Day 1a and 41 players from 65 entries moved on from Day 1b, 144 competitors remain from the overall field size of 304 entries.

Leading the way into Day 2 is Eric Ethans, co-founder of Suja Juice. Ethans bagged up a very big 180,200 in chips from the 25,000-chip starting stack on Day 1a by playing a highly-active style.

Other notables to advance included mixed-game specialist Michael Trivett (148,500), Dan O'Brien (104,100), Barstool Nate (99,000) and both Survivor players that entered, Rob "Boston Rob" Mariano (65,900) and Tyson Apostol (40,300).

Late registration and reentry will remain open until the first hand is dealt for Day 2, so there's still plenty of time for the field to grow.

Stay tuned for coverage coming your way shortly.

Steed Takes One Out

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Darrell Steed just decided to limp in after two players had done this already, and the next player to act decided to move all in for 26,000 chips. The action folded all the way back around to Steed and he gave it some thought before making the call.

Steed: {6-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}
Opponent: {2-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}

The board ran out {3-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{A-Clubs}{K-Spades} and Steed's pair of sixes held up.

McCray to the Rail

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

The die-hard Washington professional football team Trey McCray, has just been knocked out. McCray told us how he shoved all in from the big blind with {A-}{7-} for his last 10,500, and the initial raiser called with {3-}{3-}.

"The flop gave him a set," McCray added, as he did not manage to mount a comeback.

Gordon's Jacks Hold Up

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Brett Gordon just moved all in for his last 9,700 chips and Valerie Hanley three-bet to 19,000. The other players folded and the showdown went as following.

Gordon: {J-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}
Hanley: {A-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}

Gordon looked a bit sour, and Scott Ball said, "Man, you should be fist-pumping there."

The board ran out {10-Spades}{K-Spades}{3-Spades}{Q-Hearts}{6-Spades} and Gordon managed to double up.

"I only like jacks before the flop," Gordan smiled, but this time they were also kind to him after the flop.

Eric "Barstool Nate" Nathan

From the hijack seat, Michael Delvecchio raised to 2,500. Eric "Barstool Nate" Nathan called on the button, and everyone else folded. The flop came down {J-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}, and Delvecchio bet 2,500. Nathan called, and the dealer added the {4-Spades} to the board on the turn.

Both players checked fourth street, and the {8-Diamonds} completed the board on the river. With two pair of jacks and eights on the board, Delvecchio checked. Nathan bet 10,000, and Delvecchio tank-called. Nathan showed the {K-Diamonds}{J-Spades} for a full house, and Delvecchio mucked his hand.

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

On the {A-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{4-Clubs} board, Conor O'Neil bet an unknown amount in a fairly big pot against Eric "Barstool Nate" Nathan. After a bit of thought, Nathan called with the {Q-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}. Unfortunately for him and his set of queens, O'Neil had the {A-Clubs}{J-Clubs} for a rivered flush.
