Picking up the action on the turn, we saw the dealer put the fourth card down on the board, and Eric Yilmaz knocked the table. Daniel Lowery took his cue to make a bet of 30,000, but Yilmaz check-raised to 95,000 total. Lowery tanked and called, leaving himself 72,000 behind.
We didn't hear how it happened, but one way or another, that remainder went into the pot behind the river. When it was time for showdown, Lowery's drew a frustrated reaction from Yilmaz. That's most of his stack flushed away, leaving him with about 160,000.
For Lowery, it's a much needed double to push his stack back up around 380,000.
Eric Bergen raised to 24,000 to open the pot, and Eric Yilmaz three-bet shoved for 139,000 total. When it came back to Bergen, he thought for a long while before making what was a very good call for most of his chips.
Showdown
Bergen:
Yilmaz:
Yilmaz did not like the news, and he slapped his cards onto the felt in frustration. The news would improve, though. The board ran out , and Yilmaz notches the come-from-behind double. It moves him back close to average with around 300,000, while Bergen is left crippled down around 20,000.
Glenn Martinez opened up for 28,000, Eric Yilmaz called from the button and Hank Czarnick shoved from the big blind. Martinez called after a few moments and Yilmaz folded. The pair were heads up and the cards were tabled.
Martinez:
Czarnecki:
The board rolled out and Martinez doubled up with big slick.
Nick Long was very short on chips, and he open-shoved first into the pot from late position. He was working with , and Hank Czarnecki looked him up with from the blinds.
The looked like good news for Long, but things would go south in a hurry. The turn and river allowed Czarnecki to run down his straight, and with it comes the rest of Long's chips.
We've lost another player, and it's Nick Long out in 17th place. That's good for a consolation prize of $5,728.
Our remaining 16 players are off for their final ten-minute break of Day 2. When they return, they'll play on for two more levels of seven knockouts, whichever comes first.
