Kiril Gerasimov brought-in and Pat Pezzin completed for 2,000. Gerasimov made the call before putting Pezzin all in for his last few chips on fourth street.

Pezzin:

With Pezzin's split queens holding up, he doubled though to just over 10,000 in chips.
Defending champion Freddie Ellis brought an exceedingly healthy stack into Day 2, but he's been slowly trending downwards almost from the call of "Suffle up and deal." A recent hand against Greg Mueller and Jean Gaspard aptly summarizes Ellis' day. Mueller brought it in and Ellis limped before Gaspard raised. They were three-handed to fourth street and to fifth street, where Mueller caught open kings, Gaspard caught open jacks, and Ellis' board was very ragged. Ellis had to fold, taking his stack down to about 30,000.
Dan Shak and Tony G are sharing a table in the corner of the Red section. Shak asked the G why Isildur1 backed out of the "Big Game" that Tony was going to put Isildur1 into in London a few months ago.
"He had a driving test he had to take," joked the G. Then, more seriously: "I'm helping Party out. Party's not putting any money in. I think a different online site paid him and he went to a different tournament. I think he was bought out. That site thinks he's the biggest thing since sliced bread. He was wearing their logo."
"Why was it so quiet?" Shak pressed.
"He wanted it that way."
Allen Kessler completed for 2,000 and Alessio Isaia two-bet to 4,000.
Once the action folded back to Kessler he tossed in his last 1,600 in chips and the cards were tabled with each player's board running out as follows.
Kessler: 
/ 
/ (X)
Isaia: 
/ 
/ (X)
Isaia turned over his and Kessler would need any King, seven or club to stay alive.
Unfortunately for 'Chainsaw', he could only find the 
on seventh to see him eliminated from the tournament.
David Singer was all in on fourth street with four to a staight, 
/ . He was called by a flush draw, 
/ 
. Singer went runner-runner-runner to catch a full house, easily defeating his opponent's pair of queens. The potgaves Singer about 12,000 chips.
Unfortunately Tony G is the next victim to hit the rail after getting all his chips into the pot on fifth street against Eric Buchman.
Guoga: 
/ 
Buchman: / 
Guoga picked up the 
on sixth street to take the lead, but Buchman also improved with the 
giving him a bigger two pair.
Buchman blanked out with the 
on seventh, but Guoga also failed to improve as he could only squeeze out the as he made his way to the rail.
Players are on their first break of the day.

With less than a full bet left in his stack, Chris Ferguson caught the bring-in. He tossed all of his chips in and was called by two players. By fifth street, Ferguson was heads-up with Daniel Negreanu. Negreanu wound up rivering two pair, leaving Ferguson drawing at either a seven or a jack to stay alive. He bricked his draw and headed for the exit.
Negreanu is up to 66,000.
