Action folded to a player in the cutoff, and he raised to 33,000. A player on the button called, before Benjamin "Mintzy" Mintz put in a three-bet to 130,000. The player on the cutoff gave it some thought but mucked his hand, as did the button, to give the pot to Mintz.
Mintz took another pot to continue his impressive start to Day 2.
The player under the gun moved all in for 100,000. Winston Fowlow moved all in himself for approximately 300,000 from middle position. Philip Randazzo jammed for his last 324,000 from the hijack and John Klinge called off the bet for his tournament life from the cutoff.
John Klinge: K♠10♣ 
Under-the-Gun: A♦7♦
Winston Fowlow: K♦Q♦
Philip Randazzo: Q♣Q♥
The board ran out 8♥3♣J♠6♥3♥; Randazzo's queens held to eliminate three players in the same hand.
Florence Mazet, on the same table, had also managed to chip up to over 600,000.
When action folded to Darrell Swain in the cutoff, he raised all in for 155,000. The player on the button made the call, and both the blinds folded. The players were heads up with Swain at risk.
Darrell Swain: 3♠3♣
Button: A♦K♠
Swain was ahead with his pocket threes, but when the flop came 7♣8♠K♥, Swain needed help to stay in the tournament. When the turn brought the 3♥, Swain left his opponent drawing dead and the 4♣ on the river gave Swain the double up.
Action was caught after an all in and call had been made by David Stellmon and the middle position player. Both players revealed their hands.
David Stellmon: 9♦3♠
Opponent: A♠J♣
The board ran out 9♠8♠Q♦10♥J♥ for both players to chop the pot with a queen-high straight on the board.
Samuel Fournier raised from the hijack, Steven Borella three-bet to 110,000 from the cutoff and Fournier moved all in for approximately 300,000. Borella snap-called.
Samuel Fournier: A♥Q♠
Steven Borella: A♦K♣
Fournier was crushed, however, the 9♣5♦3♦4♥ runout gave him additional outs to chop.
"Deuce," called Borella. Sure enough, the dealer placed the 2♣ on the river to give both players a wheel and Fournier a lucky chopped pot to survive.
When action folded to a player on the button, he raised all in for 190,000. Todd Lewis in the small blind then made the call, to put the player at risk. The big blind folded and the players were heads up.
Button: 5♥5♦
Todd Lewis: A♦J♠
The all-in player was ahead with his pair of fives, but when the board ran out 3♠8♠6♦A♥9♦ Lewis improved to the best hand with a pair of aces, and eliminated his opponent.
Action was caught after the flop came 6♣8♥J♥ and the big blind was quick to check.
Ronald Diquattro fired for 60,000 from middle position and the button moved all in for around 400,000.
Diquattro found the call and both players revealed their hands.
Opponent: A♠J♠
Ronald Diquattro: A♥5♥
The board ran out 2♥J♦ for Diquattro to take the pot with the turned nut flush.
Sebastian Crane raised to 32,000 from early position, Isaac Wenc three-bet jammed for 171,000 from the small blind and Crane made the call.
Isaac Wenc: 10♠10♣
Sebastian Crane: A♥J♠
The flop laned 10♦9♥K♥, giving Wenc a set, while Crane had a gutshot. The 5♦ turn and 8♣ river saw Wenc win this flip to double up.
