Welcome Back For Day Two Action!

One of these and $234,065 would go down nice!
One of these and $234,065 would go down nice!

Welcome back to the Rio on this rainy (huh) Las Vegas afternoon for day two of Event #23: $2,500 Limit Hold'em Six Handed!

The 384-player field has been whittled down to just 108 players as we look to battle down until just six remain for a final table.

Alexander Queen is one leading the charge into today with an amassed 74,400 in chips, but snapping at his heels are Richard Li (74,200), David Webb (62,400) and Keith Ferrera (61,700).

Many notables still sit amongst the field with Justin Bonomo (56,900), George Lind (49,600), Phil Gordon (44,900), JC Tran (41,700), Chuck Danielsson (40,500), Erick Lindgren (35,200), Andy Bloch (26,900) and Bertrand Grospellier (26,000) being just a few still in contention in Event #23.

With a first prize of $234,065, a coveted gold bracelet and title of Champion on the line, play is going to be an intense affair with PokerNews providing continuous live updates from 3:00pm PST!

Le Snatches One From Conigliaro

Anh Le opened with a raise from the cutoff to 1,600 and Steve Conigliaro defended his big blind as a {5-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{7-Clubs} flop was spread.

Conigliaro checked and Le fired out 800 only to be check-raised to 1,600. She made the call before also calling a 1,600-chip bet when the turn delivered a {4-Clubs}.

Conigliaro checked the {J-Diamonds} on the river and Le fired out an uncalled bet of 1,600 to take her to 16,400 in chips.

Sebok Cracks Set and Straight to Triple

Carl Beard opened with a raise to 1,600 only to have Robert Zoellner three-bet from the small blind.

Joe Sebok committed his last 3,100 and Beard then found himself all in for 4,000. Zoellner made the call and the cards were tabled.

Sebok: {8-Hearts}{3-Hearts}
Beard: {Q-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}
Zoellner: {J-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}

The flop of {8-Clubs}{4-Spades}{9-Hearts} kept Zoellner in the lead but gave both players some outs.

It was the turn that created the most drama as it fell the {J-Hearts} to give Sebok a flush draw to stay alive, Zoellner a set of jacks, but Beard a straight.

Fortunately for Sebok he magically found the {K-Hearts} on the river to see him double through to 9,300 as Beard slipped to just 1,800 in chips.

Gallagher Gone

Patti Gallagher raised first-in from the button, and big blind Todd Witteles eyed up her short stack as he made the call.

The flop came {10-Diamonds} {Q-Clubs} {3-Hearts}, and Witteles check-raised Gallagher to put her all in for 1,700 total. She showed {J-Spades} {8-Spades}, and Witteles had a hammer lock on the hand with {Q-Hearts} {8-Diamonds}. The turn {3-Clubs} was a blank, and the {J-Diamonds} on fifth street wasn't enough to save Gallagher from elimination.

She's out, and Witteles bumps his stack up to about 20,000.

Baker Picks Up Early Pot

In a battle of blinds we found David Baker checking a {3-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} board with around 4,800 in the pot.

Alex Melnikow fired out 1,600 and Baker check-raised to 3,200. Melnikow hesitantly made the call as the {6-Clubs} peeled on the river and Baker continued with a 1,600-chip bet.

Melnikow released his hand and Baker took down the pot to climb over the 55,000-chip mark.

Binger Over Bertrand

Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier opened with a cutoff raise, and big blind Michael Binger called to see a flop.

It came {10-Spades} {8-Clubs} {3-Hearts}, and Binger knocked the table. When ElkY bet, Binger raised, and they both got two small bets in there heading to the {3-Diamonds} turn. Binger bet there, and again on the {4-Diamonds} river, and ElkY called big bets on both streets.

Binger turned up {8-Hearts} {9-Hearts} at showdown, and his second pair was the best. ElkY mucked, dropping his stack down to 7,800 while Binger moves up close to 30,000.
