Peckham Wins One, Then Loses One, Then Wins One!

Level 24 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

Mathew Frankland raised to 48,000 from the button and Mark Peckham three-bet to 125,000 from the big blind. Frankland responded with a 258,000 four-bet but then folded when Peckham five-bet all-in.

The next hand, Kris Wojciechowski moved all-in for 308,000 in middle position and Peckham called from the small blind. It was Wojciechowski's {A-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} versus Peckham's {K-Spades}{K-Hearts} and when the board ran {3-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} Peckham handed over a large chunk of his stack.

By the time we made it back to our desk here on media row, he had won another pot to take him up to 1,540,000.

Sandona Going Strong

Level 24 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

Sean Sandona started the day with less than 10 big blinds yet as still managed to make it this far into Day 2.

Sandona has around 370,000 chips in his stack now after taking on Jason Wheeler a few moments ago. Wheeler opened the preflop betting with a raise to 22,000 and Sandona called in the big bind. Sandona checked to Wheeler on the {4-Clubs}{10-Spades}{6-Diamonds} flop and Wheeler kept up the role of aggressor and bet 50,000. Sandona then check-raised to 135,000 and Wheeler ducked out of the way.

Gustafsson Wins Huge Pot

Level 24 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante

We caught the action with a completed board of {q-Spades}{8-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{5-Spades} and a ton of chips in the middle. A player led for 225,000 and Robert Gustafsson raised to 575,000. His opponent tanked for several minutes, before eventually calling. Gustafsson showed {8-Clubs}{8-Spades} for the full house and all his opponent could muster was the {q-Diamonds} for three queens.
