Two Big Stacks

Level 9 : 400/800, 0 ante

As the day's end nears, we have been out on the tournament floor searching for previously unknown players who are in possession of a big stack.

We discovered Spain's Yosei Obadia who has a massive 185,000 and Italy's Attilio Donato with 136,000 who look set to sail through to Saturday's second day of play.

Nguyen Wins a Big One

Level 9 : 400/800, 0 ante

We caught the hand as Scotty Nguyen called an all-in bet on a {J-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{10-Hearts} flop. Nguyen turned over {K-Clubs}{10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} for a set of tens, while his opponent held {A-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} for bottom pair, an ace-high flush draw and a gutshot straight draw.

Nguyen's opponent went on to miss his draws as the {9-Spades} and {J-Diamonds} completed the board and sent him to the sidelines.

Kilpatrick Kills Off Merson

Level 9 : 400/800, 0 ante
Greg Merson - Busted
Greg Merson - Busted

Kory Kilpatrick led for 3,800 from the small blind on the {10-Spades}{4-Spades}{8-Clubs} flop prompting a fold from Phil Hellmuth in the next seat along. Greg Merson raised pot from the button and made it 32,000 to go, Kilpatrick moved all-in and Merson called.

Merson: {10-Clubs}{9-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}
Kilpatrick: {Q-Spades}{4-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{2-Spades}

Kilpatrick had a set of fours but the hand was far from locked up. The {A-Diamonds} turn was of no help to Merson and neither was the {9-Diamonds} river and Kilpatrick claimed the tournament life of the 2012 World Series of Poker Main Event champion.
