The action was picked up on the turn A♠4♥2♣7♦ with two players who were heads up. Andres Vasquez Fajardo in the small blind and Julio Torres in the big blind. Fajardo decided to bet 160,000 for the river, Torres called the river A♣.
Fajardo pushed all his chips to the middle, Torres started to count his stack and chose to call.
As soon as Fajardo flipped his card 5♣7♠, Torres mucked his cards. So Fajardo collected his chips.
Andres Vasquez Fajardo moved all in before the flop for 440,000 from the small blind and was called by Julio Torres in the big blind.
Andres Vasquez Fajardo: A♦4♣
Julio Torres: J♦J♥
Torres had Fajardo in bad shape heading to the flop, but as the dealer laid out 2♦4♠3♠, Fajardo gained some outs pairing his four and gaining a wheel draw.
The 5♦ on the turn gave Fajardo a straight leaving Torres drawing dead.
As a 5♠ changed nothing for the outcome of the hand, Fajardo let out a sigh of relief as he doubled through Torres.
David Erquiaga went all in for his last 785,000 on the button. Matthew Radcliffe threw in one chip to signal a call from the small blind.
David Erquiaga: Q♣3♥
Matthew Radcliffe: Q♠Q♥
Erquiaga was way behind going to the flop, and the 8♥3♣2♠7♠6♦ runout provided no help to him.
Level: 29
Blinds: 80,000/160,000
Ante: 160,000
Action folded to the big blinds, with a small blind of 60,000 Kevin Powell moved all in for 465,000 and was called by Mark Tornai in the big blind. Powell was at risk of his tournament life as we headed to a runout.
Kevin Powell: Q♦8♣
Mark Tornai: 8♥9♥
Fortunately for Tornai, he paired his nine on a board of A♦9♦K♥A♥J♠.
"Nice playing with you guys, good luck," Powell said as he made his way to the payout cage to collect his cash late into Day 2.
Action was picked up on the flop J♣Q♥6♦. Ted Fiorito moved all in from the cutoff, which covered William Sandberg. He was in the big blind in the tank, but eventually decided to call.
William Sandberg: 8♥J♦
Ted Fiorito: K♦Q♥
The dealers revealed the turn Q♠ and the river J♥. Florita collected all the chips in the middle of the table, and sent Sandberg to the rail.
Wesley Cannon was all in against Andrew Skiles, and the race was on.
Wesley Cannon: 6♣6♠
Andrew Skiles: A♦K♦
It was over by the turn, as the runout of 9♥9♣7♥6♥A♣ gave Cannon sixes full and the double up.
Ari Shin moved all in for just 240,000 from early position. Courtenay Williams called from the cutoff, and then Gene Grieshaber moved all in from the small blind. Williams called once again, and the three players were all in.
Ari Shin: K♣7♦
Gene Grieshaber: K♦K♥
Courtenay Williams: A♠Q♣
The 8♣6♣2♠J♠Q♥ was safe for Grieshaber's kings, while Shin was eliminated.
Alex Bergfors went all in with nearly 3 million chips in front of him, and Jacqueline Patman hesitated a bit before making the call.
Alex Bergfors: Q♥Q♣
Jacqueline Patman: A♦K♦
Bergfors' queens held through the board of J♣8♣7♥2♦8♠ and took huge a bite out of Patman's stack, leaving her with a little over two big blinds. She busted out of the tournament a few minutes later.
