In the money; Day 2 is a wrap
Jeff Gross
On the 10th hand of hand-for-hand, we saw Daniel Leduc 4bet shove his remaining 56,500 after an open from Sheraz Nasir from under the gun, and a 3bet from Trevor Delaney in early position. Sheraz folded his hand, later showing AK, and Trevor made the call for a few thousand more.
Daniel turned over 
, and was far ahead of Trevor’s , especially with an ace being folded by Sheraz. The window card however was an ace, but in the same time Daniel spiked the case king on the flop to stay ahead in the hand. The turn changed nothing, however the river brought the , giving Trevor a straight, and in the process eliminating Daniel on the bubble.
There was only 5 minutes left to the last level of the day, and so after this hand, the TD called for the last 3 hands of play for Day 2. Players are now bagging and tagging their chips onto Day 3, which will be played out at 12pm tomorrow, May 4th. Alan ‘Ari’ Engel was the only player to bag over 1 million in chips, and is returning to Day 3 as the chip leader with 1,014,000. Trevor Delaney bagged 804,000, good for second in chips, while the rest of the field falls below the 600,000 mark.
We will be publishing the full list of player reported chip counts shortly, as well as the official seating assignments for Day 3.
