The field has continued to grow through the first two levels with an estimated 2,350 players now registered for Day 1c. The players are going on another 20-minute break and the PokerGO production will be moving Daniel Negreanu's table to the feature table for the live stream that will be aired on a delay. Here are some of the highlights from the previous level:

Straight For Ritter

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

In a blind versus blind situation with already 6,000 chips in the pot on J85, David Ritter in the small blind checked and let the big blind bet 5,000.

Ritter called and checked on the turn Q. The big blind checked back, and the A landed on the river.

This time, Ritter took the lead and bet 10,000. After a few seconds, his opponent called, and Ritter showed 109 for a straight. The pot allowed him to be back at the starting stack.

Bhalla Applies Pressure

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

On a flop of 7J8, the pot was already huge with 23,000 in it when Eshaan Bhalla led out for 4,000 from under-the-gun.

Zhaoyue Luo made the call and the two went to the turn 7 where Bhalla fired again for 6,500.

Luo went into the tank for a good minute before he decided to lay it down and the large pot was awarded to Bhalla.

Bartov Gets a Double up

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

All of the cards were out on the turn K75Q and Michael Bartov had raised all in from under the gun and the player in the middle position had called. The middle position player had tabled his cards and everyone was awaiting Bartov to show but he was announcing in his phone the details of the hand and that he had to fade a heart to win.

Michael Bartov: QQ
Middle position player: KJ

The river came out the 5 and Bartov won with a full house and did not have to fade the hearts after all.

Lynskey Bets Until they Fold

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

Alex Lynskey raised it up in middle position and was called by the cutoff and the big blind. The flop came A105 and Lynskey continued with a bet of 1,100 but both of his opponent called.

The turn was the 3 and Lynskey sized up a bet of 4,800 this time. The cutoff quickly folded and the big blind took some time but eventually followed suit.
