We walked up to the action with the board reading 
and Matthew Haugen checking to Mike McDonald. McDonald slid out a bet of 20,000 and Haugen thought for a moment before eventually making the call. McDonald turned over 
and Haugen tabled 
for second pair.
McDonald's bluff had been picked off and Haugen is building early here on Day 2.

Dan Smith has joined overnight chip leader Mark Dube’s table so two of the big stacks are in one place. They are both wearing glasses and have their hoodies up.
Just now Smith opened a pot from early position for 3,800 and Jonas Wexler raised from the button to 10,000, leaving 35,000 behind. Smith checked the numbers, did some mental calculation, and threw in the call.
The flop was 
. Smith checked and Wexler moved all in. Smith looked frustrated and thought the now-changed puzzle over for close to a minute before releasing his hand.
“What could he have?” Smith asked aloud. “I had ace-queen.”
“I put him on ace-jack.” Smith’s neighbor helpfully informed him.
