The

Duthie: 
The board ran out 
to see Chan double to 73,000 as Duthie slips to 77,000 in chips.
This one could take a while folks!
Runner Runner For Duthie
John Duthie limped in from the button only to call a Terrence Chan raise to see a 
fall and checks follow from both players.
The turn landed the 
and Chan checked to Duthie who fired out 10,000. Chan made the call the see the 
peel on the river and a bet of 20,000 follow from Duthie.
Chan made the call once again only to muck at the sight of Duthie's 
as the Canadian slips to 38,000 while Duthie climbs up to 112,000.
Bell Makes Quads To Progress
On a flop of 
William Reynolds found himself all in against Chris Bell.
Reynolds: 
Bell:
With Reynolds' flopped nut straight in great shape to ensure a double up, running eights in the and 
would see Bell catch running quads to see him win his table to progress through to the second round while leaving Reynolds stunned.
Two Tournaments, Two Stacks
Over on table 35 we find Justin 'Boosted J' Smith in a commanding chip position with 124,000 to Anh Van Nguyen's 26,000.
Although the action is fairly dull, Smith and Nguyen were discussing one of the other events that are also in play at the moment; Event 7: $2,500 2-7 Triple Draw Lowball.
Smith has a seat in that very tournament at the moment, and when he left he only had 7,000 with blinds at 300-600.
"I'm probably busto by now," he stated to Nguyen.
Unfortunately for Smith the table that contained his blind-dwindling stack broke and consequently cannot be located at present time by the PokerNews Live Reporting Team.

McGoin' to Day 2
"I know you're twenty times the player I am," Joseph McGowan told Lee Markholt moments before the last hand between the two.
On said hand they got it all-in preflop after a series of raises and the hands were shown down:
McGowan: 
Markholt: 
McGowan stood up and pleaded, "Come on let the best hand win one time."
The improved the best hand, and the on the hand sealed the deal. The 
on the river was meaningless, and after a quick chip verification by the dealer Makrholt hit the rail.
McGowan may not be the player Markholt is, but he's still alive and at least $16,607 richer.
Jones Falls, Stammen Progresses
Aaron Jones found himself all in preflop holding against Keven Stammen's .
"All that for this!" stated Jones as the dealer spread the 
board to give both players two-pair but Stammen the better of the two.
With Jones now on the rail, Stammen moves into round two and a guaranteed payday of $16,607 for his near twelve hours of play.
