Igor Pihela Sr. has the biggest stack in the room. Some came at the hands of Hassan Sey who he just eliminated.
A player opened from early position to 5,000 before Sey three-bet to 16,500 from the cutoff. Pihela Sr. flat-called from the small blind and the opening raiser folded.
Pihela Sr. fired out a donk-bet of 12,000 after the 
came on the flop. Sey jammed for 56,000 and Pihela Sr. snap-called.
Hassan Sey: 
Igor Pihela Sr.: 
Sey got out of his seat before the rest of the board was dealt when he saw he needed a two outer to remain in the tournament. He was officially eliminated after the 
came on the turn followed by the 
on the river.
After this hand, Pihela Sr. won another small pot to extend his chip lead.
It is rare to see all eight players at the table in a pot. This is, even more, the case on Day 2.
This is exactly what happened and it all began when Daragh Davey opened to 4,500 from under the gun. Everyone at the table called including Jussi Mattila, Mathias Siljander, Jari Hurri, and Johan Palokangas in the big blind.
"Family pot!" yelled Siljander before a few others players chimed in saying the same before the 
came on the flop.
The action folded to Mattila in middle position who opted to bet 12,000. It folded back around to Palokangas who jammed for 36,400. Matilla snap-called and turned over 
and needed help to beat the two pair held by Palokangas with 
.
Palokangas doubled up after the 
came on the turn and the came on the river.
"Have fun writing that one up," Davey said as PokerNews was walking away from the table.
Timo Ruuska opened to 4,500 from late position before Jari Mahonen jammed a short stack of less than 10 big blinds from the big blind.
Ruuska called and turned over 
and was well ahead of the held by Mahonen.
The 
board didn't help Mahonen and he was eliminated from the tournament midway through Day 2.

Richard Randolph opened to 4,300 from middle position before Aleksandr Arutjunov jammed from one seat over for about eight big blinds.
Randolph snap-called and turned over 
and was behind the 
held by Arutjunov.
The 
flop gave Randolph an open-ended straight draw. Arutjunov was looking good for the double after the 
came on the turn but the 
came on the river to complete Randolph's straight and Arutjunov was eliminated.
