David Singer is down to 24,000 in chips, although it would be foolish to discount the double bracelet winner even with a 12bb stack. Singer bet an 
flop when his big blind opponent checked to him, then checked back the 
turn before firing on the river for 10,500, over a third of his opponent's remaining chips. He mucked as soon as he got a call, however.

So said Michael Sherburn, all in with

A pot grew heads up between David Pham and Rafael Camejo as Pham bet 4,000 when the flop was checked to him. Camejo called, then checked again on the turn. Pham bet 6,500 and Camejo check-raised to 18,500, with 45,000 or so behind (Pham asked for a rough count). After a brief think, Pham said, "Okay," and folded, showing the .
"I got one of those," replied Camejo, flashing the

"Seven," said Pham.
"I guess I don't need to show you that 'cause you already know."
"I like this guy," said Camejo, amongst other musings about the hand and his history playing against Pham and his unique style. Pots played in 2008 are still fresh, with a big one lost still clearly (if good-naturedly) rankling.

John Esposito is requesting thorough media coverage of his journey through Day 2, and immediately after that request found himself in a couple of tricky spots.
In the first hand, Esposito raised on the small blind, and got reraised all-in from a player in early position. Esposito mucked and preserved his 170k-plus stack.
Two hands later, Esposito and Aviel Rubin got in preflop for all of Rubin's remaining 17,500 chips.
Aviel Rubin:
John Esposito: 
It was the wrong end of a cooler for Esposito, who found no help with the 
runout. The one-time WSOP bracelet winner is still sitting strong, however, with 155,000 chips.

Preflop action took off when short stack Camillo Calabrese took the plunge for around 20,000 holding 
, and it was soon obvious why: both of his opponents held aces, red and black respectively.
The board: 
......
"I was loving it!" said Red Aces. "Another guy pushing all in."
"I almost laid it down," said Black Aces.
"Really?"
"No."
Yesterday we reported on Seniors champion James Hess - but it was in 2011 that he won his bracelet - not 2012. That year belonged to Allyn Shulman, who is still going strong with a comfortably over-average stack of 125000, intimidating triumphal jewellery adorning her wrist. Hess, meanwhile, was eliminated yesterday.
