    Brian Yoon crushed Day 2A

    2018/04/28 - 21:56 by Jôle Simard

    Today was the first of two Day 2s in the MILLIONS Main Event. At 12h00, 364 bags were placed on the tables, waiting for their rightful owner. Throughout the day, 137 buy-ins were placed, bringing the Day 2A total entries to 501.

    Michael Sklenicka, who sent the biggest stack to day 2 – 10,195,000 – did not play today, but 2nd and 3rd, Sylvain Siebert and Tony Dunst, did. Tony Dunst had lost a good portion of his 8,050,000 when he got severely coolered with his few remaining millions. His bottom set was cruelly taken down by a top pair that turned into two pairs, that turned into a bigger boat.

    Sylvain Siebert was the richest player to start the day, and loyal to himself, he rode the roller coaster, shrinking as small as 3M and springing back up to the bagged 14,550,000, one of the biggest stacks to be taken to Day 3, also a habit of his.

    Brian Yoon had an unbelievable day, and bagged the monstrous amount of 24,910,000 chips. He will be hard to dislodge from the driver’s seat by any Day 2B player. The combined Day 2 results is updated now with all results from Day 2A.

    The players were being eliminated a little too fast, and partypoker made the decision to cut a level off the day’s program. This means that Day 2B will also be shortened, for all players to merge on the same level, so if you are playing tomorrow, know that you will be able to celebrate a big bag earlier than expected!

    Follow us tomorrow for another exciting day of Day 2 action!

    Ema Zajmovic, we remember, made history within our walls when she became the first woman to win an WPT Open Championship, in February of last year.

    She just took out 2-time WSOP bracelt winner Mark Radoja. Ema made it 250K to go from the button, and Mark, sitting in the small blind, went all-in for his remaining 3M.

    Ema asked for a count, in case some 500K chips were hidden somewhere, but she wasn’t going to lay this hand down:

    Ema: Ace of Diamonds Queen of Spades
    Mark: 9 of Clubs 9 of Hearts

    Board: 7 of Spades Ace of Clubs Queen of Diamonds 10 of Spades Queen of Clubs

    An unequivocal win. She eliminated a very dangerous player and chipped up nicely, a few hands away from the end of day.

    The river saves Ramzy

    Matas Cimbolas just got a big blind special that ended up costing him his tournament life.

    Madhat Ramzy had opened the action, and Cimbolas defended his big blind. Cimbolas then led at the 2 of Clubs 6 of Hearts 6 of Diamonds flop with a bet of 400K. Ramzy then put out a raise to 1.2M, sending Cimbolas into the tank. He eventually made the call and then checked to Ramzy when the 5 of Hearts fell on the turn. Ramzy moved all-in following Cimbolas’ check for roughly 3M, which drew a snap call from Cimbolas, who immediately opened his 6 of Clubs 3 of Hearts. Ramzy rose from his seat and shrugged as he opened 7 of Hearts 7 of Spades, preparing to make his exit. But the 7 of Clubs hit the river, saving Ramzy’s tournament life and sending Cimbolas to the rail.

    Play in Day 2A has been going pretty fast. So much that our partner partypoker made the decision to take a level off today’s schedule, in order to stay on course for the streaming arrangements of the last days. This means that our players are now playing the last level of the day. Last chance to run up the board before Day 3!

    Huge pot for Ketendjian

    • Level: 15
    • Small Blind: 50K
    • Big Blind: 100K
    • Button Ante: 100K
    • Chip Average: 6.3M
    • Remaining: 150
    • Entries: 501

    With the blinds at 50K/100K in level 15, David Eldridge opened the action from middle position before Hagop Ketendjian three-bet shoved from the big blind for nearly 8 million in chips. To everyone’s surprise, Eldridge quickly made the call and cards were tabled with nearly 160 big blinds up for grabs. Eldridge showed Jack of Diamonds Jack of Spades and Ketendjian opened Queen of Clubs Queen of Diamonds. The board, 6 of Spades 9 of Diamonds Ace of Spades 8 of Diamonds Ace of Diamonds, posed no threat to the queens, and Ketendjian took down a massive pot to put him among the chip leaders.

    Short-stacked David Coleman open-raised all-in from early position for his last 800,000, and was met with a flat call from Karim Chatur in middle position. When action swung around to Marvin Rettenmaier in the blinds, he paused for a moment before announcing all-in for a little over 3.2 million. Karim made a quick call and hands were tabled.

    David: Queen of Spades Queen of Diamonds
    Karim: Ace of Spades Ace of Hearts
    Marvin: King of Hearts King of Clubs

    The 6 of Hearts 5 of Diamonds 10 of Clubs 8 of Clubs Ace of Diamonds board was clean for Karim and his rockets, and he eliminated 2 opponents while propelling himself up the leaderboard.
