[user169505]

Boy these day two's start off with a bang. Here is a round up of some of the early action.

Our chip leader Luis Rufas started Day 2 in the same fashion as he finished Day 1 - winning chips! We caught him on a flop of {6-Clubs} {q-Diamonds} {j-Hearts} in a blind battle with Edouard Jean Georges Mignot Bonnefous. Rufus had bet 8,700 on the flop and Bonnefous reluctantly folded.

We have lost serial EPT casher Joao Barbosa. Barbosa was all-in pre flop with {a-Spades} {k-Clubs} dominating Leandro Balotin's {a-Hearts} {q-Spades} . The flop gave them both a momentary delight when it came down {q-Diamonds} {k-Hearts} {4-Clubs} , the turn {2-Hearts} didn't change anything but the river {q-Hearts} did as it sent an unlucky Barbosa over to the rail.

Erik Van Den Berg has doubled up Jose Javier Pati?o Gonzalez over at Table 18. Van Den Berg held {a-Hearts} {7-Hearts} and Gonzalez {8-Spades} {q-Hearts} . The board was {j-Spades} {8-Hearts} {9-Spades} {9-Hearts} {3-Spades} .

Alexandru Razvan Marin has eliminated Urs Kohler when his {8-Spades} {10-Clubs} hit a straight on the {5-Clubs} {a-Spades} {9-Diamonds} {7-Hearts} {6-Clubs} board. Kohler was holding Ace Queen.

Pokerstars Online Qualifier Bryn Kenney has doubled up through Georgios Souvorov. Kenney was holding {j-Clubs} {7-Clubs} and Souvorov a pair of Queens on a flop of {j-Spades} {5-Diamonds} {10-Spades} . The turn was the {7-Hearts} to break Souvorov's heart. The river {3-Hearts} was no help and Kenney has 125,000.
