After five hands of hand for hand play, it was Gaetan Cariou who finished in the bubble position, when he couldn't get there with {j-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} against Mark Radoja's {j-Clubs}{q-Clubs}.

For Radoja though, it has been a fantastic start to Day 2. Starting the day with 54,000, he has roughly doubled that in the first hour and a half of play.

Margolin led out with a bet of 4,100 and Bansal called. The {k-Diamonds} hit the river and Margolin slid out a stack of orange chips covering Bansal who snap called for his last 21,500.

"Nice hand" said Margolin with a smile turning over {3-Hearts}{2-Spades} and Bansal tabled his {k-Spades}{k-Hearts} for top set to earn the pot and the double up.

Today, 227 players will return at 2p.m. to the Rio All-Suite Hotel and Casino to try to build up a stack in this event.

There will only be 203 people paid, so 24 survivors from yesterday will fail to make a return on their investment. However, everyone has their sights set on first place, which will bring the title, a bracelet and $323,472 in prize money.

Finishing top of the field yesterday, was John Pannucci, who bagged a whopping 235,400 chips to finish the day. Also bagging big, were Akin Tuna (169,900), Kenny Hallaert (154,400) and Kfir Nahum (151,400) but it could all change at the top spot over the course of the day.

On the schedule for today are ten 60-minute levels, with a 15-minute break every two levels. There will also be a 60-minute dinner break after Level 6 (8:30p.m.). This event is played in Amazon Orange and Tan sections.
