No Surinder for Sunar
, Liu's check on the end led to a bet of 7,600 from Liu. After a minute or two of deliberation, Liu made the call but was chagrined to see Sunar turn over 
for the flopped set.As a result, Liu headed into the break with a heavily depleted stack of 3,500.
Brunson Down But Not Out
"Allow myself to introduce . . . myself."
John Juanda started things off, "John Juanda, Las Vegas, Nevada."
Then the camera pointed at Gus Hansen, who said in stride, "Phil Ivey."
He'll be Mizzed
The flop came
and Langmann bet 7,500 into the pot. Mizzi sat there for a long while, staring at the board and occasionally glancing at his opponent, before announcing all in. Langmann snap-called with 
and he found Mizzi with his hand in the cookie jar as he tabled 
.The turn
and river 
changed nothing and Mizzi was eliminated early into level three. Langmann up to 70,000 now.
JJProdigy Hits the Rail
could not improve against Sonnert's 
on the 
board and Field's Main Event came to an end after only two levels (and five minutes) of play.
Brunson Fine; Ferguson Also Fine and in Position
Pascal Perrault Ousted
on a 
board and running into the nuts -- 
.
"I Played that Like a European"
. The action was checked to Negreanu who bet 1,200. Brummelhuis flat-called and Dwyer put in a raise to 3,100. Booth folded and the action was back on Kid Poker, who bopped along to his iPod and fiddled with his chips while mulling his decision. "What do I have again?" wondered Negreanu aloud after a few moments. "Oh, THAT... I raise!" he said, putting out 7,100 in chips. Both opponents gave up their hands and Negreanu raked in the pot.
"I just got all European there-- top pair, top kicker, raise, RERAISE!" giggled Negreanu as cameras swarmed his table.
Nice Call Puts Juanda at 60k
, an opponent moved all in for 11,100, putting John Juanda to the test. "Do you have a set? A busted flush draw?" asked Juanda, as he tried to piece together the puzzle.
In the end, Juanda opted to make the call and as it turned out it was a good one, as his opponent turned over
for two pair, fours and sevens. Juanda then tabled 
for a better two pair and raked in the pot."Christmas is not till three months from now!" a jealous John Phan said to his fellow John across the table.
