Day 2 of the $2,500 No Limit Hold'em Six Handed event is now in the books and it was an interesting day to say the least! Out of the 189 players who started the day only 22 remain. Our chipleader heading into day 3 is Anthony Ruberto who finished the day with 1,550,000. His aggressive style and ability to apply pressure to his opponents has served him well throughout the day.

All of the remaining players are guaranteed to take home at least $20,377, but we're sure they're all salivating over the chance to take home the $689,739 and gold bracelet that will go to our eventual champion.

Players to watch on day 3 include Chris Moorman, the winningest online tournament poker player of all time, and Will "The Thrill" Failla who cashed in seven WSOP events in 2010.

There were many notable players who hit the rail today including Jean-Robert Bellande, who started the day 2nd in chips, Jake Cody, Tuan Le, Jimmy Tran, Olivier Busquet, and Mohsin Charnia.

Play will resume tomorrow afternoon at 2:30pm in the Blue section of the Amazon Room. Make sure to keep following PokerNews for all your up-to-the-minute WSOP updates!
