Hand #109: On the first hand of the day, Lucas Jumalon, holding 9♠9♦ raised to 5,000,000 on the button. Michael Gagliano in the big blind called with Q♦7♦.
The flop was 2♥4♥2♣. Gagliano checked, Jumalon announced a bet of 7,500,000 and Gagliano laid it down.
Hand #110: Rami Hammoud in middle position raised to 5,000,000 with K♦J♦. Greg Mueller made the call from the big blind with Q♦6♦.
The flop was J♠2♣8♣, to which Mueller checked. Hammoud bet 6,500,000 and Mueller instantly mucked.

None other than four-time NBA champion Draymond Green kicked things off on Day 2 of the 2026 World Series of Poker Main Event final table with the shuffle up and deal.
PokerNews live coverage will follow on a delay alongside the ESPN2 broadcast.
After yesterday's slog on Day 1 of the 2026 WSOP Main Event final table, the final seven players will return this afternoon for the second day's play.
Lucas Jumalon leads for the second day in a row, after Evagoras Evagorou and Mario Boos both departed on Monday night.
There was a tight battle behind, however, with Han Feng capping off a stellar day, moving from second-shortest at the start of Day 9 to second in chips to end it, taking from Lauri Saaskilahti on the final hand of the night to push the Finn into third.
Play resumes at the Horseshoe, Las Vegas at 4 p.m. local time, with the event broadcast on a one-hour delay on ESPN.

Behind this trio sits a flurry of short stacks with the remaining four players sitting with sub-20 big blind stacks. Rami Hammoud lost his grip on the coattails of Jumalon and has slipped to fourth in chips, with Michael Gagliano close behind him.
Jamie Shaevel had picked up the elimination of Evagorou on Monday, but sits behind him, with Greg Mueller the shortest stack of all with just 12 big blinds.
