Hall Lying in Wait

Level 14 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

A player pushed all in from the small blind for less than 20,000 after {q-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} flopped, and two players folded. James Hall, though, called immediately closing the action in the hijack.

Hall: {a-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}
Small blind: {9-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}

Even the small blind's straight flush draw wasn't live since Hall had the blocker, and he scored the elimination.

Jay Zheng pushed all in from middle position, and Brandon Fish tanked awhile and called off his 26,000 a few seats later.

Zheng: {a-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}
Fish: {5-Hearts}{5-Clubs}

Fish had some good fortune in races when he won RunGood Council Bluffs, but variance was not with him on this day as the board ran out {10-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}, eliminating the former champ.

Welcome to Day 2 of RunGood Cup Championship (full)

Three starting flights are in the books, and it's time to get serious at the RunGood Cup Championship, as Day 2 has dawned here at Harrah's New Orleans with 81 runners set to take their seats.

Tim Woodson will be the chip leader when play begins, having bagged 359,000 on Day 1b, making him far and away the leader over Day 1a's Chris Torres (244,000). Other top stacks include Jeremy Eyer (217,000), Russell Sartin (210,000), and Ray Henson (203,500).

Blinds will begin at Level 14 (2,000/4,000/500), and progress through the day with each level lasting 45 minutes, a major step up from Day 1's 30-minute levels that will dictate a change in the pace of play. Breaks will be every three levels, with a 45-minute dinner break upon the reaching of the final table. Cards are scheduled to fly at noon, so pay attention to see who claims a first-place prize of more than $50,000.
