Failla Doubles Through Arruebarreena
Level 9
: 300/600, 75 ante
After John Holley opened the pot with a raise to 1,300 from middle position and a call from James Arruebarreena in the hijack, Will "The Thrill" Failla shoved from the button for 14,800. Holley got out of the way, but Arruebarreena called with 
. He was flipping with Failla's 
, but lost when the board came down 
.
Failla has about 32,000 now, while Arruebarreena slipped to roughly 43,000.
Early Eliminations
Level 9
: 300/600, 75 ante
David "Bakes" Baker, Joseph Cheong, and David Peters have been sent to the rail early on Day 2.
A Jab to Dolan
Level 9
: 300/600, 75 ante
When David Peters was eliminated from Table 6, they had to hold up to wait for a player. It was John Dolan who was brought over from the adjacent table, and he unracked his chips as the dealer dealt the next hand. From across the table, someone was eying up his relatively scant chip stack.
"You don't have any grays?!" said the player with a hint of a sting, referring to the high-value T5,000 chips.
Dolan answered with a flat, "No," as he stacked up the 14,000 or so chips he does have. That's plenty for now.
Chad Brown, Pro
Level 9
: 300/600, 75 ante
On a 
flop, Chad Brown checked, and Allie Prescott fired out 2,200. Brown check-raised to 5,500, and Prescott flatted to see the on the turn. Brown kept the heat on with another bet of 10,000, and Prescott once again came along with the call.
That led them to the 
river, and Brown moved all in for 29,375. It was almost a pot-sized bet, and Prescott would eventually make the call with a slightly bigger stack. Brown showed up 
, and that was going to be hard to beat. Prescott wanted to muck, but his all-in hand was shown: 
.
After that exchange, Prescott is left with just 2,000 lonely chips as Brown doubles over 90,000.
Cheeps
Two noteworthy things on this list. First, Harry Cullen is in the lead over Brandon Adams now. And Allie Prescott has worked his stack of 2,000 back up to 13,000 over the course of just a few hands.

Shorr On Winning End of Set Over Set
Vitor Coelho opened to 1,500 in middle position and Shannon Shorr called from the next seat over.
The flop came down 
and Coelho bet 1,800. Shorr put in a small raise to 4,000, leading Coehlho to shove for about 15,000. Shorr called immediately with 
, miles ahead of Coelho's . The 
turn gave Coelho outs to a flush, but the 
river was not one of them.
