The Latin American Poker Tour Chile, the first stop of the fifth season, continued on Friday at the Enjoy Casino & Resort in Vina del Mar as the surviving 188 players from Days 1a and 1b combined for Day 2 action. After eight levels of play, that field was whittled down to just 32 players, with Daniela Horno leading the way.

With a prize pool of $651,840 at stake, including a $129,470 first-place prize, the players were intent on making the money, meaning they needed to finish in the top 104. Unfortunately for Carlos Perez, Juan Carlos, Odilon Machuca and Leandro Csome, they were all sent to the rail empty handed.

The LAPT Season 4 Player of the Year, Pablo Gonzalez, also failed to reach the money. His elimination came when he moved all in for 25,400 from the cutoff after the player in the hijack had raised to 4,800. The button got out of the way, while the small blind made the call. After the hijack folded, Gonzalez tabled {5-Clubs}{5-Hearts} but was behind the {A-Diamonds}{A-Clubs} of the small blind.

Gonzalez was in a bad spot, though the {5-Diamonds} appeared in the window; unfortunately for him, it was followed by the {Q-Diamonds} and {A-Hearts}. It was a set-over-set flop, meaning Gonzalez needed the last five in the deck to stay alive. The {7-Spades} turn was not it, and neither was the {2-Hearts}. Gonzalez was eliminated from the Main Event without a cash.

A few players who did cash were Juan Amigo (90th-$1,550), Guillermo Pardo (64th-$2,030), Claudio Lopez (57th-$2,030) and Thiago “XTheDecanoX” Nishijima (55th-$2,180), just to name a few.

Horno finished sixth in the LAPT Chile Main Event last year, and is primed to make a deep run as both the last woman standing and Day 2 chip leader with 767,000.

The 32 players will return on Saturday at 1200 CLST (0800 PDT) for Day 3, where they will play down to a final table. As always, you can follow the action right here on PokerNews.
