"...(...) Chcę umrzeć w wieku stu lat z amerykańską flagą na plecach i gwiazdą Teksasu na kasku, z okrzykiem radości na ustach, sunąc na rowerze stromą alpejską drogą z szybkością 120 kilometrów na godzinę. Chcę jeszcze raz przejechać linię mety i zobaczyć pełną wigoru żonę i nasze dzieci, klaszczące na mój widok. Chcę położyć się na słynnym francuskim polu słoneczników i tam z poczuciem spełnienia oddać ducha. Byłoby to absolutne przeciwieństwo doświadczonego kiedyś przeze mnie, smutnego i przerażającego umierania w młodym wieku..." - Lance Armstrong

Very interesting table draw: Phil Ivey, Liv Boeree, Allan Cunningham and Devilfish are sharing the same table.
Meanwhile Freddy Deeb was of the already 25 players to bust early on Day 2.
Germany's Boris Becker just busted rather surprisingly with his Kings against Pocket Rockets.
Meanwhile Phil Ivey is facing some heavy opposition. But it's not the other famous pros at the table he is struggling with but Paul Kristofferson who seems to have fun putting Phil Ivey to the test.
We're past the first break of the day and are now in level 11 with 800/1,600/200 blinds and antes.
Already 72 players busted since the start of the day and some of the remaining are struggling to survive.
Liv Boeree lost a big pot to David Steicke when they both checked the board 2 
3 
9 2 Q 
on the river and Steicke showed AQ against Livs 66.
Meanwhile we found Barry Greenstein under pressure. At least he managed to double up with AQ vs. QJ - but still he has only around 12 big blind left to play with.
Lisandro is sent to the rails! He shoves all-in with KJ only to get called with AA. The board 6 Q 
2 A 7 seals the deal...
Some chipcounts:
Alex Kravchenko - 325,000
Teddy Sheringham - 190,000
Benny Spindler - 180,000
Tom Marchese - 75,000
Kevin MacPhee - 74,000
Arnaud Mattern - 227,000
John Juanda - 155,000
Sam Trickett - 137,000
Phil Ivey - 135,000
Daniel Negreanu - 118,000
Ivan Demidov - 95,000
Barry Shulman - 58,000
Jan Heitmann - 40,000
Liv Boeree - 31,000
After the break we'll enter level 12 with 1,000/2,000/200 blinds.
Still level 12 with about 225 remaining players.
German Team PokerStars Pro Jan Heitman had to leave the tourney after losing a rather strange hand with a Q6s preflop all-in.
British Pro Liv Boeree was very unfortunate when pushing in her last 38k chips after facing a 3-bet. She was only called by Sam Trickett who instantly turned over A A :club:, leaving Liv almost no chances to improve her A K :heart:. Pocket Rockets won the showdown and Boeree was busto!
Level 13 starts soon.
The Devilfish and Barry Greenstein were already sent packing. Phil Ivey keeps on grinding, winning small pots and having around 85k chips.
Average is about 113k.
After a short break we are now at level 13 with 1.200/2.400 Blinds and 200 Ante. German PokerStrategist Benny Spindler managed to get into the top5 chipcount after 3-betting a checkraise in a mutliway pot, followed by another 3-bet preflop. He looks down at 355.000 chips now.
Team PokerStrategy.com-members Bongbob and Nazgul have 305.000 and 85.000 chips respectively.
JP Kelly got lucky: He went all-in with KQ against John Juandas Aces. A Queen on the flop and another one on the turn would push his stack to over 200.000 chips, while Juanda is down to ~ 50.000 chips.
Update
Unfortunately I have bad news regarding Nazgul: He just busted. AQ < AK ♠_frown:
Level 14 with Blinds at 1.500/3.000 and 300 Ante is running now. Shortly after our last update, Benny Spindler managed to flop the nut straight wit QT. After valuebetting decently, he could increase his stack to 490.000 chips: 2nd place in the chip count.
As mentioned by Timo, Nazgul busted after getting his AQ all-in preflop vs AK. Bongbob is the last player of Team PokerStrategy.com remaining. He currently has around 380.000 chips. 175 players are left, the top 128 will end up cashing in this event.
Benny Spindler is still on top of the chip count with more than 400k chips.
Phil Ivey is alive, too: He got all-in with Aces against pocket 77 and won. Thus he looks down at 175.000 chips. There are about 150 players left.
Details from Nazgul
Blinds: 1200/2400. Nazgul openrais in CO position to 5250, 3bet from a super aggressive player to 15.000, Nazgul shoves his 70.000 Chips - call.
Flop: 9 J T
Turn: A
River: T
And unfortunately that was it for Nazgul.
The german PokerStartegist Benny Spindler claims the chiplead with 620.000 chips. He managed to get his JJ all-in on a 5 :club:2 :club:8 6 board, after his opponent, Matt Affleck, went All-in for 150.000 Chips with A :diamond:Q :diamond:. The river brought the Jack :heart:.
BongBob has still about 380.000 chips, while the next break starts. There are only 20 people left before the money bubble bursts.
Level 15 is running: 2.000/4.000 Blinds, 400 Ante
9 people are supposed to bust until the top 128 will get a minimum share of the prizepool (£7.500). Once we reach the money play will end for the night. Here are some of the well known players and their chip count:
Benny Spindler – psychobenny: 635.000 Chips
Konstantin Bücherl – BongBob: 380.000 Chips
JP Kelly: 360.000 CHips
Alex Kravchenko: 330.000 Chips
John Juanda: 280.000 Chips
Daniel Negreanu: 245.000 Chips
Joe Hachem: 240.000 Chips
Greg Raymer: 180.000 Chips
Phil Ivey: 175.000 Chips
just come out of the hilton, atmospheres a little quite, understabley so with the field approaching the 120 mark. bongbob looked pretty at ease, but would like a few more chips. Iveys AA against the 77 had the crowd and the cameras all around his table. well its beer time and i woulud just like to say ........go BONGBOB.....you can do it.....
That's it for today. In level 15 the bubble bursted as 128 players get at least £7.500 for their efforts.
Among these players are pros like Phil Ivey (289.400 chips), Daniel Negreanu (66.200), Joe Hachem (240.000) or Noah Boeken (92.000).
Benny Spindler aka psychobenny is the best PokerStrategy.com-member in the field looking down at 621.700 chips (rank 2). Team PokerStrategy.com-pro Konstantin Bücherl aka BongBob will join Spindler into day 3 with a total of 255.000 chips.
Chipleader is David Vamplew with 1.130.400 chips.
