Day 2 chip leader Huck Seed
Day 2 chip leader Huck Seed
It's much better if you watch the 6-part BBC series than the film, but that's by the by.

Here our remaining 20 players are all bagging their chips and will be returning tomorrow at 1pm to play down to a finish.

Huck Seed is the chip leader coming back tomorrow but there's many big players still in this event and it's certainly a tournament that any player could still win with a bit of luck.

We'll see you tomorrow!

David Chiu Doubles Through Doyle Brunson

Pot-Limit Omaha:

On a flop of {7-Hearts} {6-Clubs} {3-Spades}, David Chiu bet 42,000, Doyle Brunson re-potted, Chiu moved all in for an additional 70,000 and Brunson called.

Chiu {9-Hearts} {8-Spades} {7-Diamonds} {4-Clubs}
Brunson {7-Clubs} {5-Spades} {4-Spades} {3-Diamonds}

Brunson flopped a seven-high straight, but Chiu turned a nine-high straight when the {5-Clubs} came on the turn. The river was the {Q-Spades} and Chiu doubled up to 170,000 right before play stopped for the night.

Enter Hellmuth

A rather shocked Phil Hellmuth is now wandering around the remaining three tables of the $10K mixed event, telling anyone who will listen the bad beat story about how he just got knocked out of the $2,000 No-Limit Hold'em event.

"So sick," "obviously he sucked out" and "so unlucky" was all we were able to hear and my guess is... that's enough.

Great (Pre)Scott! Harris Pavlou Out In 22nd ($16,649)

No Limit Hold'em:

David Chiu raised to 18,000. Harris Pavlou (He must own a dog surely?) moved all in and Allie Prescott pushed behind. Joe Serock moved all in too now and Chiu got out of the way.

Pavlov: {10-Hearts} {10-Spades}
Prescott: {A-Diamonds} {Q-Diamonds}
Serock: {A-Spades} {K-Clubs}

The board came {Q-?} {J-?} {4-?} {6-?} {A-Clubs} making Prescott two pair to triple up to just over 300,000. Pavlou was knocked out for a small side pot by Serock to leave us with just 21 players left.

Brian Mizok Eliminated in 23rd Place ($16,649)

No-Limit Hold'em:

Brian Mizok took his {J-Clubs} {10-Clubs} up against Ville Wahlbeck's {K-Hearts} {6-Hearts} in a preflop all in. Though he hit top pair in the {J-Hearts} {7-Hearts} {5-Hearts} flop, Wahlbeck flopped a flush. The turn was the {J-Diamonds}, making him trips and leaving a ray of hope for his survival should the board pair, but the river fell the {6-Hearts} and Mizok departed in 23rd place.

Allie Prescott Triples Up

No-Limit Hold'em:

Allie Prescott moved all in for 24,000 from middle position and got two callers-- Scott Dorin in the small blind and David Chiu in the big.

Miraculously, Prescott's {2-Spades} {6-Spades} ended up as the best hand, the board running out {7-Hearts} {7-Clubs} {6-Diamonds} {10-Clubs} {2-Clubs} to make him two pair and triple his stack to 88,000.
