The clock in level 24 of the Playground 200 is about half-way through it’s 40 minutes and very soon, the TD will be calling for dealers to complete a set number of hands per table and the day will conclude. There are still 3 tables in the action but just 21 players remain at the tables – and if there are 3 more eliminations, Day 3 will start with 2 full tables.

All of that will be known shortly after the end of the action tonight. As soon as it’s available we’ll add the final Day 2 results and then shortly after that we’ll publish the Day 3 seating draw.

The Playground 200 is down to the final four tables, with only 33 players remaining. The blinds are up to nearly a starting stack, and everyone remaining is guaranteed a decent return on their buy-in, but their sights are set on the $23,036 first-place prize.

The Playground 200 has its first player to cross the million-chip threshold – François Dugas. Behind him is his table-mate to the right, and then the stack sizes go down quickly from there. With just 39 pleyers remaining but several short stacks still in play, we’re due to see some big swings yet today.

Sebastien Morrissette just found himself in a raising war with Vincent Tremblay – among the leaders all day – and managed to pull out a win after open shoving on the flop.

The action was cutoff against button, and Sebastien opened to 31K. Vincent, immediately to his left in and on the button, raised to 95K, and action folded back to Sebastian who re-popped to 235K. Vincent made the call and a half-million chip pot was suddenly at stake.

The flop came out and Sebastian instantly shoved all-in for his remaining 162K.

Vincent tanked. He held half a million chips behind, and you could almost see the wheels turning in his head as he tried to work out a solution. Eventually, though, Vincent made the fold and Sebastien stacked the chips.

Nicolas Miron was down to less than 10 big blinds when he woke up with . Knowing that he was unlikely to find a better spot, he moved all-in and picked up two callers, William Perreault and Francis Rivest.

It was a dream flop for Miron, , and Perreault made a bet of 100k in an attempt to build a side pot. The bet chased Rivest out of the pot, and Perreault confidently rolled over his , only to be outdone by Miron’s trips. The runout, , confirmed the situation on the flop, and Miron got to stacking his new-found chips.
