As one of the far shortest stacks in the field, Yu Lo was all-in and at risk for only 7,000 on the live stream table.
Yu Lo: 4♦4♣ 
David Williams: A♠6♦
The A♥J♣7♠ flop improved Williams to the superior pair, who then also improved to two pair with the 6♥ turn. The river was the 3♥ and that spelled the end for Lo.
Niall Farrell open-shoved for 17,500 in early position.
"It's time for a big boy move," he commented as the action folded to Timur Margolin in the small blind. He called with the covering stack, and the players showed down.
Niall Farrell: A♣K♦
Timur Margolin: 7♠7♣
Margolin flopped a set on 4♠7♥10♠, and Farrell was left drawing dead on the K♠ turn. The triple crown winner would not add a WSOP Main Event win to his resume, and he said his goodbyes as the 3♥ river completed the board.
Patrick Steele raised to 3,000 from middle position only to be three-bet by Man Tse to 9,000 in late position and then four-bet to 28,000 by Christopher Meyers in the big blind.
Steele folded, and Tse thought for a short while before he announced that he was all-in. He had Meyers covered. Meyers snap called.
Christopher Meyers: K♠K♦
Man Tse: Q♣Q♥
It was not the flop Meyers wanted to see when the 6♥2♠Q♠ peeled off. The 4♦ on the turn did nothing to change matters, and when the 5♠ bricked out on the river, Meyers was sent to the rail in a nasty fashion
Coming back from the dinner break, the field on Day 2d has been trimmed to less than 3,000 players still remaining with the better part of two levels still to play. 2015 WSOP Main Event champion Joe McKeehen was among the notables who will not be advancing to Day 3 of this event.
Pedro Garcia opened to 3,000 from the cutoff and Arash Asadabadi moved all in for his remaining 38,000 stack. Garcia called and the players flipped their hands.
Arash Asadabadi: Q♣Q♠
Pedro Garcia: 8♠8♥
Asadabadi was looking to hold but, Garcia took the lead on the 7♣8♦3♠ flop.
There was no redemption for Asadabadi as the turn came 2♣ and the river saw the 10♦.
Aciton was picked up on the flop in a pot between Michael Squizzato from under the gun, Jeremy Ausmus in middle position, and Kenneth O'Donnell in late position.
The flop read 7♣J♠Q♣ and Squizzato moved all in for 28,000 which saw Ausmus call. O'Donnell moved all in for 72,000 effective and Ausmus went into the tank for some time before folding what he said was ace-queen.
Michael Squizzato: A♣A♦
Kenneth O'Donnell: 7♥7♦
O'Donnell held up on the 4♥4♣ runout and Squizzato was eliminated from the tournament while Ausmus was left as one of the shorter stacks at the table.
As per the WSOP+ app.
Carlos Alvarado opened to 2,500 with the 9♦9♣ and Florin Pandilica jammed the cutoff with the A♣K♠ for 31,000. The other 9♥9♠ were folded behind and it folded back to Alvarado, who made the call.
The two over cards for Pandilica failed to connect with the 10♥6♦2♣2♥7♥ and that spelled the end for the Romanian.
Action was picked up with Fabio Sanchez and Mark Strang in an all-in showdown.
Mark Strang: A♦10♠
Fabio Sanchez: A♠Q♦
Sanchez had Strang dominated. Nothing changed when the flop came 6♦5♦9♠. Strang got additional outs for a gutshot straight draw and a flush draw on the turn 7♦. But the A♣ fell ending his tournament life. He left the table as Sanchez scooped the pot.
Jeffrey Korn kicked the action off with a raise under the gun to 2,500. On his immediate left, Matthew Cannuli wasted little time in moving all in for 18,600. The action then folded to Shuofei Geng in the small blind. Geng requested a count of the all-in stack and, with his new information, made the call.
The preflop action wasn't complete yet, though, as Korn responded by moving all in himself, for a total of 23,300. Geng made the call, and the three players turned the cards onto their backs.
Matthew Cannuli: A♣J♥
Jeffrey Korn: A♥K♣
Shuofei Geng: K♥Q♥
A promising situation for Korn, who had both players dominated. The A♦9♠Q♦ flop only strengthened his position to receive a near triple up.
The turn, however, shot Cannuli into the lead, as the dealer flipped over the J♣.
The river J♠ sealed the deal for Cannuli, as Korn watched his plans for a triple go up in flames.
The dealer tidied the pot up, sending Cannuli three times as many chips as he had started with, 9,400 in the direction of Korn, who had won the side pot, and nothing to Geng.
To add salt to the wound, Korn would be eliminated just a few hands later.
