Day 2 Concludes; Back at Noon

[user46392]

And with that, our super-mega-ultra-long day comes to a close. 25 players remain with Chris Taylor, Mike Carlson and Adam Adler all up there among the leaders. Those lucky lucky folks all get to come back tomorrow at the bright and early hour of 12 noon to battle it down to one happy bracelet winner, so join us back in the Amazon Room then.

Official chip counts will magically appear overnight; until then, we're all off to get a wee bit of well-deserved kip.

Walters Walks

[user46392]

One last elimination -- Nicholas Walters got it in with {A-Diamonds}

and found himself up against Jovan Sudar's pocket queens. End of story.

Fleming Down

[user46392]

Brian Fleming is busto too, his {A-Spades}

no match for Anthony Harb's {Q-Clubs}

, particularly once Harb had flopped a set.

Chen Busts

[user46392]

Tommy Chen is out of the running -- he got it in with pocket nines against Jeff Finuacane's pocket eights, but an eight on the flop sent him home early.

Hellmuth Busts, Tells Everyone

[user46392]

It folded to Jim Geary in the small blind, who pushed, and Phil Hellmuth called all in.

Geary: {J-Clubs}

Hellmuth:

Board:

runner runner {K-Hearts}

Ouch. Hellmuth wandered out, complaining loudly.

Mandt Troubles

[user46392]

David Mandt is in trouble, his {A-Spades}

getting thoroughly sucked out on by Eric Ladny's {A-Clubs}

when a queen came on the turn. He's down to 80,000, while Ladny doubles to 400,000.

Rollercoaster for Goodson

[user46392]

Robert Goodson got himself absolutely crippled, calling Steven Fager's all in on the turn.

Goodson: {J-Clubs}

Fager:

Board:

Once he had posted his big blind and ante the next hand he had just 6,000 left -- but promptly tripled up. The next hand he made a straight to double through Peter Rho, and then, up to 55,000, he managed to split a pot, thus picking up some precious antes and blinds. Then he pushed and this time nobody called him. He's back up to 90,000.

Changing Gears

[user46392]

Jim Geary has doubled through Jonathan McGowan, his {A-Hearts}

staying very much ahead of McGowan's {A-Spades}

all the way down the {2-Clubs}

board.

Velasquez Paints Agiuar Out of the Picture

[user46392]

Jon Aguiar raised under the gun and Adrian Dresel-Velasquez reraised from the small blind. Aguiar pushed, Dresel-Velasquez called, and it was looking good for an Aguiar double up...

Aguiar: {A-Clubs}

Dresel-Velasquez: {A-Diamonds}

Board: a jack-tastic {10-Clubs}

Dresel-Velasquez is up to 430,000, while the hapless Aguiar makes his exit.
