The pinnacle of Run It Up Reno IX has arrived, as Day 2 of the $600 Main Event begins today at noon at the Peppermill Resort in Reno, Nevada. A total of 123 players survived the Day 1a and Day 1b flights, and those players will come back today as the tournament begins to play down to the $66,000 first-place prize.

Play will restart today with 26:43 remaining in Level 15, with the blinds and antes at 3000/5000/5000. Players will play through 40-minute levels today, until nine players remain. Those nine players will return for the final table on Day 3 Monday, and play down to a champion. The field will take 15-minute breaks after every three levels, and a 60-minute dinner break after Level 23.

Vincent Newland comes into Day 2 as the overall chip leader, after bagging 583,000 chips on Day 1b. Following Newland in the chip counts are Jeff Newman (547,000), Jesse Sylvia (475,000), Day 1a chip leader Brett Gordon (455,000) and Alan Burgess (436,000).

Other notable names still in the hunt include Jeremy Pekarek (377,000), Khoa Tran (340,000), Max Young (337,000), Matt Stout (296,000), Vanessa Kade (234,000), Jamie Kerstetter (188,000), and Garry Gates (181,000).

Raoofi First to Fall

Level 15 : 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Peter Rabover raised to 10,000 from middle position, and Arash Raoofi three-bet shoved for 36,000 next to act. Rabover called.

Arash Raoofi: {j-Spades}{10-Diamonds}
Peter Rabover: {q-Spades}{j-Diamonds}

Raoofi found gin on the {7-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} flop, giving him the nut straight and a straight flush draw. Rabover was still plenty live with a gutshot and a bigger flush draw, and the {10-Spades} turn gave Rabover the queen-high straight, and left Raoofi looking for the {6-Diamonds} to win or a queen to chop. The {10-Hearts} river was of no consequence, and Raoofi headed to collect his winnings.

Tassone Doubles Through Jenkins

Level 15 : 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Nicola Tassone jammed his last 17,000 in from middle position, and Michael Jenkins called in the big blind.

Nicola Tassone: {a-Hearts}{6-Spades}
Michael Jenkins: {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs}

Tassone got no help on the {k-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} flop, but did pick up a few outs on the {6-Hearts} turn. The {a-Spades} hit the river, giving Tassone two pair, and he told Jenkins, "Hey, at least it was only 17,000!" before bringing in the double.

Delatore Catches Her Ace

Level 15 : 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Rachel Delatore opened to 17,000 under the gun, Paul Sampson called from the small blind, and Alex Epstein called in the big blind.

Both blinds checked on the {2-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} flop, and Delatore went all in with her remaining 94,000. Sampson folded, and Epstein called.

Rachel Delatore: {a-Clubs}{k-Hearts}
Alex Epstein: {q-Clubs}{j-Clubs}

Epstein's top pair was ahead on the flop, and the turn came {9-Diamonds}. The river, however, brought in the {a-Spades} for Delatore, giving her top pair and sending the pot her way.

Young Going Up

Level 15 : 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Max Young open raised from early position, and DJ Fenton and Loren Klein called from the blinds.

Action checked to Young on the {q-Spades}{6-Hearts}{j-Clubs} flop, and he bet 26,000, with only Fenton calling.

Fenton check-called a 58,000 bet from Young on the {8-Hearts} turn. The river came {2-Diamonds}, Fenton checked, Young bet 130,000, and Fenton folded.

Sanchez Sends Delatore Out

Level 15 : 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Rachel Delatore, Voislav Ivanovski and Albert Sanchez went three ways to a {q-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{7-Clubs} flop.

All three players checked, bringing the {3-Diamonds} on the turn. Delatore, in middle position, went all in for 123,000. Ivanovski folded in the cutoff, and Sanchez thought it over for awhile before putting in the call from the button.

Rachel Delatore: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}
Albert Sanchez: {q-Clubs}{10-Hearts}

Sanchez was ahead with top pair, with Delatore looking for one of her overcards, or a diamond, to hit. A diamond did come on the river, but it was the {7-Diamonds}, giving Sanchez the full house and rendering Delatore's flush no good.
