We're not exactly sure how it came to this, but Robert "E-Dolo" Scott found himself involved in a pot with Nancy Todd Tyner. Tyner was all in. The chips went in preflop.
Tyner:
Scott:
Board:
That's right, the board made a flush, and with neither player holding a diamond they chopped it up.
"Oh YES," said Scott. "Someone take my picture, puh-lease."
It's been a long day here in the Amazon Room - albeit one punctuated with amazingly frequent breaks - and so it is that we are left with just 41 of our 481 Day 2 starters.
Drew Crawford - who's been a big stack for most of the day - is our chip leader going into Day 3 on a commanding 800,000. However, there is a clutch of other players hot on his heels and it is anyone's game yet.
Everyone is now guaranteed $12,591, but there is a whole world of difference between that and the $625,872 that the eventual winner is going to take home.
Play will resume at 3pm tomorrow, and we will be playing right down to a final table. Until then, from the Amazon Room, it's goodnight.
