We've spotted a massive chip stack belonging to one Daniel Haglund, a baby-faced professional from Sweden, who has managed to escape our attention thus far.
Haglund has amassed a castle of chips totaling more than 310,000 and we will be sure to keep an eye on this unassuming player who is apparently far more dangerous than he appears.
We missed the most of the action, but after tabling his with the board reading , Eric Mizrachi's full house has added another pot to his growing stack.
Short stacked for most of the evening, Mizrachi has gone on a heater and he now has approximately 235,000 chips to work with, placing him squarely in contention as we approach the end of Day 2.

Player # 1 now needed to avoid any ace, any spade, as well as the deuces and sevens remaining in the deck. The table hushed in anticipation as the dealer prepared to turn over the river card.
River:
With that, Player # 1 had survived what must have been a terrifying sweat and earned a well deserved double up.
