Brian Meinders has already had a successful summer, managing to take down his first World Series of Poker gold bracelet in Event 25: $1,500 Limit Hold'em Shootout. Meinders has had a good start here on Day 2 of the Main Event.
We recently caught the action of a hand between Meinders and Michael Lipman. By the time we arrived at the table there was a 
flop showing and Meinders was on the button with Lipman set to act. A bet of 2,500 was sent Meinders way, with him making the call to see a 
land on the turn. This time Lipman checked and Meinders bet 2,500. Lipman called and a 
was dealt on the river. Another check from Lipman would see Meinders again bet 2,500 and Lipman would again call.
Lipman:   |
Meinders:   |
Meinders pair of eights was enough to trump Lipman's holding as Meinders raked in the hand little pot.
Matt Woodward opened to 1,050 from middle position, Veerachai Vongxaiburana called on his direct left, and Robert Geith defended his big blind. The flop was 
, Geith checked, and Woodward fired 1,700. Vongxaiburana folded, and Geith called.
The turn was the 
, and Geith led out for 4,100. Woodward called.
The 
completed the board, and Geith led again - this time for 6,700. Woodward found a fold, and Geith raked in the pot.
Jeffrey Frye got his stack of 11,750 all in preflop with 
and was up against the 
of Marc Arseneau. Frye was in good shape to double, but the 
flop made things interesting as it gave Arseneau a flush draw.
The turn added some chop outs to Arseneau's arsenal, but the 
on the river was not one of them. With that, Frye doubled while Arseneau was left shaking his head.
Both Court Harrington and Allyn Jaffrey Shulman started the day as short stacks over in the Purple Section of the Amazon Room and now their 2012 World Series of Poker Main Event has come to an end.

Bryce Yockey returned to Day 2a/b with just over 81,000 chips, but after opening his bag, he didn't stack them. Instead, he quietly sat with a hodgepodge of green, black, purple, yellow and orange chips mixed together in front of him.
The floor was eventually called, and the dealer asked if Yockey had to stack his chips. The floorperson said yes.
"What if I can give you my exact count?" Yockey asked.
"It doesn't matter," the floorperson responded.
Yockey began assembling his chips as we left, and they are now neatly stacked.
Action started with Keith Block raising it to 1,150. Pacome Chavignon was next to act, and he tossed in the call. 2008 Main Event Champion Peter Eastagte also called, as did Elliott Zaydman out of the big blind. The four players saw a flop of 
. It was checked to Chavignon, who fired out 2,600. Eastgate was the only caller, and they went heads up to the turn, the 
.
Chavignon checked to Eastgate, who fired out 5,500. Chavignon came along to see the river, which was the 
, bringing four diamonds on board. Both players checked, and Chavignon showed for the top flush. Eastgate slid his cards towards the dealer, dropping him to 37,000.
We found Kevin Pollak and Daniel Kaiser at the river on a 
board. Kaiser checked, Pollack bet 6,000 and Kaiser threw one T1,000 chip in the pot.
Kaiser thought he bet 1,000 and the floor was called. The floor supervisor ruled that since Kaiser tossed in a chip that it was a call. Kaiser tossed a T5,000 chip in the pot and Pollak tabled for a pair of kings.
Kaiser showed pocket queens when he folded.
Over in the Pavilion room at table #137 action folded around to David Steicke in the cutoff, and he opted to raise it to 1,225. Daniel Negreanu sat on the button and he three-bet to 3,600. The blinds released and action found its way back to Steicke, who made the call.
The flop came 
allowing for Steicke to check and Negreanu to continue for 2,700. A call was made and both players were allowed to see the turn.
It was here on fourth street that the made an appearance bringing with it a repeat of action with Steicke check-calling a bet of 5,700 from Negreanu.
The 
on the river saw the same action take place with Steicke checking and Negreanu firing out a bet of 10,500. Steicke didn't call as quickly this time, rather spending a good 45 seconds pondering his current situation. Eventually though Steicke did make the call. Negreanu was first to show and he exposed 
for three of a kind sixes. Steicke couldn't counter this and he mucked his cards, awarding Negreanu the substantial pot.
