Martins Adeniya is here in today's Day 2 field, but just before play, he talked to Kristy Arnett about a hand he played on Day 1a wherein he decided to fold top-two pair in a monster pot.
Action folded to Tony Dunst in the cutoff seat, and he opened with a raise to 1,025. Luke Graham called on the button, and the flop came down 
. Dunst led with a bet of 1,500, and Graham folded.
We walked up to the table to see Amanda Baker and Nicholas Muraca in a heads up pot on the river, with the board reading 
. There was about 12,000 in the pot, and Muraca checked to Baker, who fired out 6,500. Muraca spent quite some time in the tank, at least two minutes, before the clock was called. The table started complaining that this was the second or third time the clock had to be called on Muraca, who waited until the eight second mark of the countdown to toss in the call.
Baker showed 
for a flush on the turn, and Muraca kicked it in, before getting in a low key argument with the player who called the clock on him. The floor came over to break it up, but it appeared that tensions were still high after he left, as the two continued to mumble at each other afterwards. Regardless, Baker took down the nice pot, and is now sitting on over 60,000.

A three-way preflop situation here during the first hour of Level 6 saw players betting back and forth until Steven Wolansky and another opponent had each committed around 17,000 with the third player stepping aside. Wolansky had 
and his opponent 
.
The 
produced an audible reaction from the table thanks to the possibilities it afforded Wolansky, but after the 
turn and 
river he'd lost the hand and quickly got up and departed the Amazon Room.
However, the counting down of chips afterwards revealed that Wolansky actually had his opponent outchipped by 425. Someone was sent after Wolansky, and he returned to his seat saying he'd thought his opponent had him covered.
On the first hand back Wolansky open-raised all in from the cutoff and both blinds called. The other two checked down the 
board, and when Wolansky tabled 
it was the best hand and he'd triped his tiny stack.
Not long after that Wolansky doubled up, and is now back over 3,000.

The player led for 3,000 on the turn and Nitsche called. The came on the river and again the small blind led for 3,000.
