The board read 
when we saw Steven Silverman move all in (with two lammers still unused). David Peters called and tabled 
for two pair. Unfortunately for Peters, Silverman rolled over 
for a turned better two pair.
The board bricked out with the 
and Peters was forced to ship double up chips across the table. Silverman now has a slight lead in the match.
We noticed Andrew "LuckyChewy" Lichtenberger stand and stride past us, signalling that his Round 2 match against Micah Raskin has come to an end.
According to Raskin, who made sure to couch his assessment by telling us "Andrew's my friend and I respect him," the young online whiz kid was simply unable to get any traction in the contest.
"I won every hand, I called him when he bluffed ... I steamrolled him," Raskin told us, before departing to prepare for his Round 3 match later tonight.

Faraz Jaka had the button. He opened with a raise to 1,600 and AP Phahurat called.
The flop brought 
and the action went check-check. Fourth street saw the 
fall and both players tapped the table once more. The 
hit the river and Phahurat checked a third time. Jaka fired 1,900 and Phahurat snapped him off, showing 
.
Jaka flashed two paint cards before mucking his hand.

Johannes Strassmann and Jimmy D'Ambrosio have advanced to Round 3, after dispatching their opponents in short order.
Strassman's 
downed 
on the 
board, while D'Ambrosio won with 
after pairing up against an unpaired 
.
Phil Hellmuth's willingness to engage in table talk appears to be directly correlated to his current chip count, and during his Round 2 match, the "Poker Brat" is already talking up a storm.
On a recent hand, Hellmuth said just enough to earn a few thousand extra chips from his opponent. With the board reading 
, Hellmuth led out for 1,500 and said "I have to fire here, right?" while staring across the table.
Apparently this bit of gamesmanship worked, because Hellmuth's hoodie-clad opponent made the call, and after they both checked the river , he mucked to the Brat's 
for ace-high.
Although we do not have one yet, a seating draw is on the way. Tournament staff is working on a finalized version and we will have that posted as soon as we get our hands on it.
