The Chip Bags Are Out Again

It was a long day in the Caesars Palace tournament room. Players originally expected that this would be a four-day tournament but were told upon arriving today for Day 2 that one day had been trimmed from the schedule. The 66 Day 2 starters would need to play all the way down to a final table of 10.
Andrew Lichtenberger got a big boost in the middle of the day by taking out Layne Flack, who had been absolutely crushing his opposition to that point in the tournament. Lichtenberger flopped sixes full of jacks against Flack's three jacks, a hand that Flack ulimately couldn't get away from.
Dan Casetta, the Day 1 chip leader, also had a good day, continuing to chip up throughout the day without ever being in any serious trouble.
When play resumes at 2pm tomorrow, the players will be in the following seats:
Seat 1: Matt Stout (270,000)
Seat 2: Diego Sanchez (472,000)
Seat 3: Andrew Lichtenberger (348,000)
Seat 4: Aaron Been (198,000)
Seat 5: Thu Nguyen (157,000)
Seat 6: James Carroll (575,000)
Seat 7: Steve O'Dwyer (644,000)
Seat 8: Brock Parker (465,000)
Seat 9: Anthony Yeh (101,000)
Seat 10: Dan Casetta (489,000)
