Daniel Colman opened from the hijack for 14,000 and Vanessa Selbst in the cutoff raised him to 37,000. It folded round to Colman who made a four-bet to 82,000.
Selbts now had a long think, riffling her chips slowly and methodically. Everyone waited to see what she would do. At last out came a five-bet of 133,000 total.
Colman instantly announced he was all in and Selbst just as quickly mucked her hand.

Talal Shakerchi opened under the gun for 14,000 and action folded rather quickly to Mohsin Charania in the small blind. He announced allin and Olivier Busquet folded his big blind, Shakerchi made the call.
Talal Shakerchi: 
Mohsin Charania: 
The flop would come as good for Charania as they could come without making a pair: 
. Well, though Charania had lots of outs, and more than 60% to win by now, it wouldn't be enough. The 
on the turn and 
on the river were of no use to Charania and he made his exit.
"I could just see your face" said Busquet to Smith when Charania had already left, "like, that's gonna hurt when it misses!"

David Peters was one of three players to enter on at the start of Day 2, and his €100,000 bought him about an hour of play. That's because he was just eliminated at the hands of Justin Bonomo.
It happened when Peters moved all in over the top of a 12,000 open for 118,000 total. Justin Bonomo ended up moving all in over the top from the small blind, which drove out the original raiser.
Bonomo: 
Peters: 
It was a classic flip, but Bonomo jumped out to a lead when the 
flop failed to helps Peters. The 
turn meant he needed either an ace or queen to extended his tournament life, but it was not meant to be as the 
blanked.

Blind-versus-blind hands tend to get out of hand, especially when the two players in them wake up with big cards. That's exactly what just happened over at the feature table.
It began when action folded to Ole Schemion in the small blind and he limped. Team PokerStars Pro Jason Mercier decided to exercise his option to raise and made it 26,000 to go. Schemion opted to push back with a three-bet to 78,000, and that inspired Mercier to four-bet to 168,000.
Schemion, who won the EPT10 Sanremo €10,000 High Roller for €265,000 less than a week ago and qualified for this event through a €10,000 satellite, paused for a few moments before announcing that he was all in, and Mercier quickly called off for 561,000. Schemion had his opponent covered by just 21,000 in chips, but he had by far the best hand.
Mercier: 
Schemion: 
It was another cooler, and Mercier found himself in dire straits. The 
flop left Mercier in need of running cards, but the turn took away any chance of that happening. The was put out on the river for good measure, and then Mercier grabbed his backpack and headed for the exit.
With that, Schemion took over the chip lead.

If there's one thing you can say about Russian players, it's that they are never scared.
On a flop, Daniel Colman bet 26,000 before Vladimir Troyanovskiy check-raised to 61,000. Colman opted for a three-bet to 107,000 but the Russian responded by making it 162,000.
Colman moved all in and Troyanovskiy called off his last 200,000 or so.
Colman:
Troyanovskiy: 
The 
didn't offer the Russian even the chance of a sweat and he was eliminated on the 
river. Colman, who is the only player to have rebought into this event twice, now has almost a million in chips.

It’s the start of day two of the Super High Roller. It’s also lunch time. In the minutes before play started Richard Yong gulped down a burger, leaving behind him a trail of mayonnaise. Next to him Johannes Strassmann, with good posture, did his best with a Caesar salad. There are waitresses all over the playing area, bringing complimentary food to players who have staked six figures for a seat. Given that all the staff was busy here one man from the FPS event hopped the rail to place an order, but was sent away - a cutting reminder of his place this afternoon. The PokerStars Blog reports:
Dan Smith had been opening a lot of pots recently with mixed results, but he remains active. In this hand Smith was in the small blind and made the call when Olivier Busquet opened for 16,000 from the cutoff and Talal Shakerchi came along from the button.
Three players went to a flop of and Smith led out for 33,000. Busquet folded but Shakerchi is known for his occasional stubbornness and called in position.
The turn card 
saw Smith continue for 51,000 and now Shakerchi did make the fold.
The dynamic on the table may change now however as tables are breaking and talkative Team PokerStars Pro Daniel Negreanu has just sat down to join them.
