Sal Troiano

A player raised to 14,000 under the gun, UTG+1 moved all in for a short stack, and then Sal Troiano (late position) and the big blind both got all in as well. UTG got out of the way so the remaining three players revealed their cards.

Troiano: AsAc
Big Blind: KdKc
UTG+1: QcJd

Board: 8c6d5s2s7c

UTG+1 was eliminated on the money bubble, and Troiano stacked up the chip lead with 899,000 after collecting the pot.

Joining Troiano at the top of the chip counts are Fred Paradis (842,000), Christos Tsironis (451,000), and Samuel Laskowitz (437,000).

Day 2 has ended with 13:29 remaining in Level 17. The remaining 52 players will return at 1 p.m. on Sunday in the money for Day 2. Stay tuned for official chip counts a little later tonight.
