Jack Effel

Because this event donates to charity, Jack Effel is saying a few words about the One Drop Foundation.

Together, the WSOP has helped raise 25 million dollars for clean water over the course of their partnership.

Cards are now in the air for Day 2.

Alex Foxen

Lily Kiletto raised from early position to 6,000 and was called by Alex Foxen in the small blind and Rishva Iyer in the big blind.

Kiletto said to Foxen "I remember you, you busted me in Florida." Foxen responded by saying he remembered.

Action checked through on the flop of {9-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}.

Kiletto went for a delayed continuation bet of 11,000 when checked to on the {k-Diamonds} turn before Foxen moved all in for 29,500. Iyer folded in the big blind.

Kielleto said to Foxen "You're the last person I want to give chips to" and stated "I have a good draw too" before making the laydown. Foxen said "Good fold" as he showed {k-Spades}{x-} for top pair.

De Almeida Finds Some Run Good Early Against Calamusa

Level 11 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
De Almeida Brothers
De Almeida Brothers

Daniel De Almeida was all in preflop for his last 20,000 and Pierre Calamusa had him at risk.

Daniel De Almeida: {a-Spades}{j-Hearts}
Pierre Calamusa: {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}

Calamusa was in front with the better kicker, but the {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} flop gave De Almeida aces and jacks for the lead. The {5-Hearts}{7-Hearts} runout sealed the pot and he doubled up.

De Almeida is coming off an eighth-place finish in the Million Dollar Bounty event for $96,000. He also took home more than $130,000 in bounties from that tournament as well. His brother Caio also went deep in that tourney with a 23rd-place finish. A fantastic result for the brothers from Brazil.

Jerrimie Pacheco shoved for about 25,000, Matt Berkey was all in for 40,000 and a third player also got involved covering both.

Jerrimie Pacheco: {2-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}
Matt Berkey: {a-Spades}{9-Spades}
