Lamb Holding Steady

We've been trying to catch Day 1b chip leader Ben Lamb in a big hand here on Day 2b, but so far no such luck. In a recent hand, the player in the hijack limped only to have Lamb make it 2,700 to go from the button. Both blinds folded and the limper followed suit.

While those small pots aren't amounting to much, they're allowing Lamb to hold steady at 225K.

Ducks for Buchy

Shawn Buchanan open-shoved his last 9,825 on the button, and a player in the small blind made the call.

Buchanan: {2-Spades}{2-Clubs}
Small Blind: {k-Spades}{q-Hearts}

Buchanan's deuces held as the board ran {7-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}, doubling him to around 20,000 chips.

Henson Doubles To Peanuts, Charania Out

We're not sure how the action exactly went down, but we came in when Ray Henson was scooping a pot that he played with Moshin Charania (both of whom have been very short all day).

Henson had {k-Spades}{q-Hearts} on a {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}{k-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} board and Charania tossed the amount of Henson's stack in there, leaving him with only 2,300.

Two hands later, Charania was under the gun and put his last few chips in and got a call from the small blind. Charania had {j-Clubs}{10-Diamonds} against the {a-Clubs}{2-Clubs} of his opponent. The board ran out {4-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{7-Spades} Charania sighed, wished his table good luck, and walked off into the sunset.

Henson is still super short (one third of average) with 19,500.
