As the hallways of the Rio All Suites Hotel and Casino start to fill up for another day here at the 42nd Annual World Series of Poker, Lynn Gilmartin briefly recaps all the highlights from yesterday to get you in the loop:
Yesterday, the $10,000 Pot-Limit Hold’em Championship drew 249 players for the first $10K championship of the year, down slightly from last year’s field of 268. By the end of Day 1, only 129 players remained. Here is a look at the top chip counts at the start of Day 2:

Players are still filtering in, but that hasn't stopped the tournament officials from announcing, "Shuffle up and deal!" The cards are in the air and Day 2 is underway!
On the first hand of play, before all players had taken their seats Hoyt Corkins and George Lind wasted no time getting it in. Toby Lewis opened for 2,300, Lind called from the button and Corkins raised to 6,500. Lewis got of the way and Lind called again.
The flop came and Corkins potted for 16,300. Lind moved all in and Corkins called.
Corkins:
Lind:
The board finished and Lind's Day 2 was over in one hand. Corkins is at 85,000.
With around 25,000 in the pot and a board reading , David Chiu checked to his sole opponent, Noah Schwartz. The latter fired out a bet of 20,500, leaving himself just over 10,000 behind. Chiu tanked long and hard before conceding the hand.
Schwartz has position on Chiu and we imagine he'll be terrorizing him all day long.

We didn't catch the hand, but we got to the table just in time to see Andrew Lichtenberger collect his things and make his way from the tournament area. His elimination came at the hands of Team PokerStars Pro (Canada) Pat Pezzin, who is now sitting with around 100,000 in chips.
