Falling Star
![[user198174]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
While walking around the dwindling room we noticed Team Pokerstars pro Eugene Katchalov leaving the tournament area. When we got to his table we found fellow Team Pokerstars pro Victor Ramdin stacking Katchalov's chips. We don't know what happened, but what we do know is Ramdin continues to build his stack here on day 2, and is hovering at around 150,000.

Finally a Froehlich Post
In a recent hand we found Yin Sun on the button and Eric Froehlich in the big blind calling a 2,500 bet from the player in the cut off. A 
flop was exposed in the middle of the table which lead to a Froehlich check as well as a check from the cut off. Sun however had different plans and fired out a bet 6,900. Action was back on Froehlich who raised and demanded 17,800 for anyone to see a turn card. The cut off mucked, and Sun went into the tank. After two minutes or so Sun announced all in and was quickly called by Froehlich.
Sun turned over 
for top pair while her opponent Froehlich tabled 
for a flush draw along with a open ended straight draw. With a 
on the turn Froehlich wasted no time guaranteeing himself the win. A meaningless 
fell on the river and EFro raked in a great pot.

Colin Conquers
After a Bryan Colin bet from the button for 2,100 Huy Nguyen moved all in for about 22,000. Colin took his time before completing the call. Nguyen exposed 
, while Colin countered with 
. Colin was ahead at the moment, but there were still five cards to come that would ultimately decide a winner.
With a 
board displayed Colin's pair of aces were enough to be awarded the pot, and Nguyen was eliminated from today's event.

Short Stacked Schulman
After the table folded around to Nick Schulman in the cut off, we found him moving all in for about 14,000. The button folded and George Wolff in the small blind moved all in. After the big blind folded, cards were flipped over and Nick Schulman was in trouble.
Schulman: 
Wollf: 
Schulman was in dire need of help as his pair of fives were no match for Wollf's pair of jacks at the moment. A 
was placed on the felt. Schulman was unable to catch up and was eliminated from the field.

Somerville Succeeds
While roaming around the tournament we found Jason Somerville facing an all in bet for about 22,500. His opponent Darryl Ronconi put Somerville all in with a 
board spread. Somerville took his time making his decision before eventually calling. Cards were tabled and Somerville was ahead, but not by much.
Somerville:
Ronconi: 
Somerville was going to need to dodge any spade, any seven, and any queen. With a 
falling on the river Somerville was awarded the pot as his pair of jacks were the best.

Larry Wright raised to 3,000 on the button and Joe Tehan three-bet to 7,600 from the small blind. About about 60 seconds, Faraz Jaka four-bet all in from the big blind for about 16,000.
"Yum yum I'm all in," said an excited Wright.
Tehan folded and the hands were revealed.
Jaka :
Wright: 
The flop came down 
to give Wright the lead, but also gave Jaka a flush draw. However, Jaka found no help from the turn or river.
