World Series of Poker (WSOP) Paradise is in full swing at Atlantis Paradise Island Bahamas and continues on today with Day 2 of Event #2: $1,000,000 Triton Million, a unique tournament featuring both some of the most successful poker players in history and deep-pocketed VIPs looking for the thrill of victory.
Leading the way into the second day of play is rising start Michael "Texas Mike" Moncek, a two-time bracelet winner best known for his near 100% VPIP on streams like Hustler Casino Live. In this event, Moncek has been more selective with his starting hands and built up nearly four times starting stack on Day 2.

Action folded to Nick Petrangelo who opened from the cutoff with a raise to 55,000 holding A♠J♠. It then folded to the big blind Wai Kin Yong who called with 10♦7♠.
After the 10♠10♣6♥ flop, Yong check-called a bet of 45,000.
The turn was the 6♦ and Yong decided to lead out for a bet of 50,000 with his full house, which Petrangelo called.
The river was the J♥ and Petrangelo called a bet of 160,000 from Yong. Yong showed the full house and Petrangelo mucked to give the pot to Yong.
