The river was Ac, Charette fired a final bullet of 300,000 and Moses called. Charette flipped up 6h4h for two pair and Moses showed KdJd before mucking.

It was a continuing trend for Moses after the break, dropping down after several of his early raises and three-bets were shoved out of the way but opponents.

Austin Buchanan

Manny Minaya

The Main Event is down to the final table and the nine remaining players had a nice rest break overnight and return at noon to begin playing it down to a Champion.

SHR Tampa regular Manny Minaya went from short stack to leader late on Day 2 and returns with the biggest stack. But there’s plenty of talent coming back for the final table and it is still anyone’s game.
