Kenneth Douglas Eliminated in 20th Place ($9,909)

ClaudioElizalde

Nível 34 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante

Kenneth Douglas went all in for his remaining and was snap called by Mario Launi in the blind.

Kenneth Douglas: A♠8♦
Mario Launi: A♦A♣

The flop left Douglas wanting for running cards as it peeled the 9♠7♣3x and there was still a chance left for him when the 8♣ peeled on the turn, but he was unable to catch another eight as the 5♥ fell. Launi is now amongst the chip leaders.

Oleksandr Trokhymenko Eliminated in 25th Place ($9,909); Nathan Burnett Eliminated in 26th Place ($9,909)

ClaudioElizalde

Nível 34 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante

Nathan Burnett, Oleksandr Trokhymenko and Jie Fu all had their chips in the middle with the decision on Klas Krueger in the big blind. After much deliberation, Krueger couldn't resist the potential of a triple knockout, as he was the commanding stack. Cards were on the backs and the side pots were yet to be sorted.

Nathan Burnett: A♠3♠
Oleksandr Trokhymenko: A♥6♠
Jie Fu: 9♣9♦
Klas Krueger: 7♠7♥

The flop spread 3♥6♣Q♦, not eliciting a single response from any of the participants, but upon the 9♥ peeling the turn, Fu burst into celebration as he made a set of nines. The 5♦ changed nothing and a massive pot was pushed to Fu, while Krueger took a big hit.

Nathan Burnett was eliminated in 26th place as the shortest stack and Oleksandr Trokhymenko followed closely behind in 25th place.

A Handful of Counts

ClaudioElizalde

Nível 31 : Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante

Shannon Boone remains the lady to best, as she's steadily climbed the ranks from Day 1 to Day 2.

Preston McEwen, who entered the day with the chip lead has also been chipping up quietly but we can be sure his rail will cause a ruckus if he makes the final table.

ClaudioElizalde

Nível 29 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Evelyn Cole - Shannon Boone - Elaine Rawn

Unfortunately for her many fans, poker commentator Jamie Kerstetter was seen leaving the tournament area so it won't be her holding up the gold today.

In 2022, Katie Kopp started it off with a bang, winning Event #1: Casino Employees.

McEwen Felts Persinger

Nível 28 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Picking up the action partway through the hand, Lori Persinger in the cutoff was all in and at risk against Preston McEwen in the big blind.

Lori Persinger: K♠Q♣
Preston McEwen: K♥2♦

Persinger was in a good spot to double, that is until the board ran out K♣2♥7♣5♠4♥ to improve McEwen to two pair and leave Persinger heading to the payout desk, snapping a photo of the bad beat as she left.
