Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

On a flop of Q♥9♦2♠, new arrival Maverick Zackey checked and then called a bet worth 3,000 by Jamie Vilela. They checked the J♣ on the turn and Zackey then bet the 10♠ river for 6,000. With a four-card straight on the board, Vilela sighed and snap-folded his 9♥9♠ face-up.

Level 2 : 200/300, 300 ante

Jamie Vilela is off to a decent start with three times the starting stack and he was responsible for the only elimination of the day so far. That happened to be former SPT Main Event champion Sean Bloom, who wasted little time before jumping back into the action.

There are now already five tables in play with more than 35 entries collected in level two.
