Stephen Chidwick is Taking Over the Tournament Here on Day 2

Moments after claiming Trevor Pope's entire stack on a virtual freeroll, Stephen Chidwick turned the trick again, felting an opponent who was drawing dead after a ridiculous raising war on the flop.

The drama began with the flop showing , and Chidwick having checked to the preflop raiser. His opponent obliged with a c-bet of 3,300, and Chidwick pumped it up to 7,700. The other player paused for over a minute before cutting out a raise, four-betting to 16,300. Chidwick was undeterred by this aggression, however, and he hoisted a single stack of 20 yellow T1000 tournament chips forward for a five-bet to 27,500.

Chidwick's move sent the opponent into the tank, and he waited for more than two minutes before calmly moving his entire stack of 55,000 or so chips forward.

Chidwick snap-called and rolled over the , hoping the other player would not show up with the dreaded . Instead, the all-in player sheepishly turned over his for pure air. He had been on a stone cold bluff the entire time, raising preflop and barreling hard with eight-high, but ultimately running into a hand that had flopped perfect.

On the turn, the all-in bluffer picked up four outs to the wheel straight, but fortune did not favor the bold on this day, and the river ended his tournament.

Chidwick, meanwhile, catapulted to over 370,000 with the win, giving him the chip lead by a wide margin with more than four times the average stack.

Trevor Pope ran extremely well when he took down Event #2 of the 2013 WSOP, but that run good eluded him here today.

Stephen Chidwick checked from the under the gun on a flop, Pope betting 7,900 from the button. Chidwick check-raised to 16,900 and after 45-seconds, Pope moved all in and Chidwick called immediately.

"I lost a flip," said Craig McCorkell to us as we saw all but 1,700 of his stack being pushed towards David Benefield.

The next hand McCorkell moved all in from under the gun for his last 1,500 and William Stevenson isolated him with a three-bet to 4,100. McCorkell showed and Stevenson the .

The flop put McCorkell ahead, the turn changed nothing and the river meant McCorkell doubled to 3,700 chips.
