Second Break of the Day: Online Veteran Gone, Grinder Still Leads & More
What a level it's been. Online veteran Shane "Shaniac" Schleger made an uncharacteristically early exit in a hand filled with sets, and while he didn't bust, 2011 World Series of Poker Player of the Year Ben Lamb was headed in the wrong direction.
It was also in level two that we did an orbit with 2006 WSOP Main Event champ Jamie Gold and discovered the man behind the celebrated court ruling that poker is a game of skill and is not illegal under the Illegal Gambling Business Act.
We also saw Michael "The Grinder" Mizrachi, who jumped out to a red-hot start, slow down a bit, though he still appears to be the chip leader.
Players are now on their second break of the day and will return in 20 minutes. When they do, they will play out Level 3 before going on the 90-minute dinner break.
