From under the gun David Williams made it 4,000 and was called by Bertrand Grospellier in the cutoff. Jennifer Harman made it 12,500 to go from the small blind. Williams made the call but ElkY decided to bow out.
Harman stood pat while Williams drew one. The action went check check and Harman tabled 
. Williams announced that he paired deuces and mucked.
Harman is sitting pretty around 147,000 while Williams was knocked down to 51,000.
David "Bakes" Baker is the defending champion of this event, and he's the Day 2 chipleader right now.
We didn't see the hand play out, but Bakes just took care of the rest of Farzad Bonyadi's short stack to send him to the exit. With the pot, Bakes climbs back atop the pack with 176,000.

Billy Baxter made it 3,000 to go before the flop, and John Juanda reraised to 9,000 in position. Baxter called, and each player took one card. After the draw, Baxter shoved all in for about 25,000, and Juanda called.
"Nine," Baxter announced, and Juanda showed his own 
. Baxter flashed , and he has been eliminated.
Juanda is on the climb, up to 100,000 now, there or thereabouts.
We caught up with the action to see Amnon Filippi, Bill Chen, and Tom Schneider all take one. Schneider led out for 3,500 and was called by Filippi. Chen mucked his cards and Schneider rolled over to scoop the pot
From the hijack seat, Josh Brikis raised to 2,500, and Scott Seiver flatted in the small blind. From the big, Chau Giang reraised to 12,500, and Brikis shoved all in for 24,700. Seiver folded, and Giang called.
Brikis was pat with , and Giang had to draw two to improve. He rolled over , then pulled a 
to end the hand and ship the double to Brikis. He's back to 54,000, knocking Giang back to 49,000.
Giang promptly stood up and shuffled out the back door for a quick smoke.
Jeffrey Lisandro got his last 10,000 chips into the middle three-bet shoving against Brandon Cantu. They both patted, and Lisandro's 
beat Cantu's jack, doubling the former up to 23,600. Cantu still has nearly twice that with 42,000 in front of him.
Table 287 is awesome, for lack of a better adjective or a thesaurus. Mike Matusow and Phil Hellmuth are sitting together, and they're joined by David Williams, Jason Mercier, Nikolay Evdakov, ElkY, and Jen Harman. Talk about a melting pot.
We're really not even sure how to begin reporting the table chatter. For now, we'll note that the lovely Jen Harman is sandwiched in between Matusow and Hellmuth, and she's taken to a vigorous massage to help keep her sane over there. Mercier also made a wheel against Hellmuth in a pretty big pot, and the lecture that followed is still keeping Matusow entertained about fifteen minutes later.
We caught up with the action with Nick Shulman drawing two and Huck Seed standing pat. The action went check-check and Seed showed 
, causing Shulman to send his cards sailing into the muck.
This hand brings Seed up to 72,000 and Shulman down to 60,000.
