Second Chance; Second Day
The 19 players left in the Second Chance tournament have resumed play on 3 tables. Blinds are now 60 minutes long and play will continue for a minimum of 10 levels today – there’s a chance that if there are players remaining at the end of the 10 levels, they will choose to play it right through to the end. The players will have that option.
There will be a full seating redraw at 18 players remaining (in other words, after 1 more elimination).
Good luck!

Edmund: 
Samuel: 
Edmund was a big favourite to win the hand, and the flop 
was good for him. The on the turn, however, was the worst card and the 
on the river didn’t put him back in the lead.
15th place: Edmund John Campion, $14,130.00

Senthuran draws first blood
Senthuran Vijayaratnam

Play is underway
Samuel Bisrat Tsehai
Play has resumed in level 23 for the 15 players left in the partypoker.net WPT Canadian Spring Championship. Interestingly enough, one player is running late – chip leader Sam Tsehai hasn’t yet arrived at the table. Of course he’ll be blinded out as play continues.
Update: Sam has now arrived at the table and only missed 3 or 4 hands of play!
