10:38pm--Mario Salvagno out in 13th ($15,540)

You might have noticed a trend here. People are saying all-in more than they're saying fold. This time, it was our early Day 2 chip leader Mario Salvagno. He got Ac-Qc all-in pre-flop against Oliver Rowe's pocket aces. The board came Qd-Jd-3s-Kc-8d and Salvagno was gone.

10:20pm--Andre Ventura crippled, doubles -- Magno Aragao loves his lady

Moments ago, Andre Venture got all in with pocket sixes against Waldemar Cogo's queens and was left with barely enough to pay the blinds after failing to suck out. On the next hand, he doubled up against Cogo with Ac-9c against Ah-8d.

On the outer table Magno Aragao got all-in with K-Q versus against Karl Hevoy's black jacks. Aragao paired both his king and queen to double up.


9:57pm--Felipe Ivar eliminated 16th place ($12,760)

Brazil's Felipe Ivar just got Ac-9c all in against pocket tens. Though he flopped a nine and turned a club draw, he couldn't get there on the river and was eliminated in 16th place for $12,760.

Adolfo Vaeza just got it all-in pre-flop with chip leader Karl Hevroy. At this point in the tournament, you could call this one a cooler. Vaeza held Ac-Qd to Hevroy's Ad-Kd. Hevroy made his king on the flop and that was that.
