Well, that didn't take long. As soon as our field reporter returned to Anna Wroblewski's table after her hand against Michael Duke, he found her involved in another hand. She raised to 3,000 from middle position, only to see a player in late position reraise to 10,000. With only 13,000 behind her initial raise, Wroblewski moved all in for 16,000 and was quickly called.

Lee Markholt called Bret Forsberg's all-in preflop with pocket sixes. He was up against Forsberg's pocket eights. Forsberg really wanted to double up and chanted, "No six, no six, no six!"
Markholt couldn't come from behind on the flop, turn, or river and Forsberg's eights held up.
"That's right, baby, down to 2,700 the first hour of the first day," claimed Forsberg. "Get used to me!"
While Forsberg went on, Markholt just sat there with his fingers in his ears, not wanting to hear the banter. After he removed them, Forsberg said, "Yeah, it's over."
Markholt is down to 8,025 and Forsberg up to 22,000.

Shane Warne and Tony Hachem are good friends, but if they had their choice they'd rather not be seated at the same poker table. That's the situation they found themselves in at the start of Day 2a, but their table was one of the first to be broken today. The seating cards were handed out, Warne and Hachem looked to see where they're going...and it turns out they're headed for the same table. Again. "Can you believe this?" Warne said to Tony.
