In the first hand, Nir "kisaaa" Amar got a small stack in with ace-queen against ten-five, and despite their opponent hitting a ten on the flop, ran out to Broadway for the double. In the very next hand, the two got it in again, this time on a 
flop after Amar virtually shoved preflop. Amar was in good shape with aces over nines, and held for a second straight double.

The 2009 World Series of Poker stood out in history for several things. It was the second year of the now-defunct November Nine, when Joe Cada became the youngest-ever world champion at 21 after defeating Maryland logger Darvin Moon heads-up. Phil Ivey finished seventh in the event, ensuring massive coverage throughout the Main Event and the final table in November.
While the 2009 Main Event is probably what's remembered most from that year, there was another story brewing that year when Australian professional Jeff Lisandro went on an unprecedented tear in the stud portion of the WSOP, and pulled off a feat that's yet to be matched: winning three stud-events in a single year.
To this date, Lisandro remains the only player to have pulled off that feat in nothing but stud events, and was the first player since Ivey in 2002 to win three bracelets in a single summer.
Jing "huhu001" Zeng shoved just under 50K from the button, and Aditya "tbonerazor" Systla called with a bit less from the big blind.
Aditya "tbonerazor" Systla: 
Jing "huhu001" Zeng:

With all the Day 1s now complete, the final field for Day 2 of Event #84: $100 WSOP MILLION$ [Final Day], $2M GTD is now set. When the dust settled there were nearly 35,000 entries in this event, which blew past the $2M guarantee to set to the total prizes at $3,200,404.
