POSTED BY: cmurray

|CATEGORY: 2018, Event 2, Event 2 (Day 2)

$350+$50 Black Chip Bounty NLH
$200,000 Guaranteed

Level 22:  Blinds 8000/16000/2000 ante
Entries: 1,106
Players Remaining:  46
Average Stack:  601,000

Careful Aruther Schiavo of the two pair check down has just won a big one with just one pair. Taking a bounty and felting his opponent with on the , he nearly doubles past 1,200,000 and is a contender now.

Arthur said he wasn’t here to have a good time, but he looks pretty happy after this pot.

Nearby, Barry Rosenkranz just made big call, also to claim a tournament life.

Barry Studies the board. Clock is called, he waits, and then makes the call!

His opponent turns over a naked bluff without blockers. Great call with on a flushing, straightening middle board.

What why did Barry play this hand? One has to wonder if he as just a little titled after losing to on a river suckout just a hand before.

Rosenkranz is up to 700,000 and healthy.

We now head to the dinner break. Play will resume at 8 PM.

Event 2: Let’s Not Call it a Heater

POSTED BY: cmurray

|CATEGORY: 2018, Event 2, Event 2 (Day 2)

$350+$50 Black Chip Bounty NLH
$200,000 Guaranteed

Level 20:  Blinds 5000/10,000/1000 ante
Entries: 1,106
Players Remaining:  53
Average Stack:  521.698

On five with ten bigs, Michael Savino has promised a heater. He goes all in…

…but closing the action, Arthur Schiavo is suspicous. He asks for a show and lays down KQ.

“I’m not here for a good time,” he explained, “I’m here for a long time.”

Arthur carefully checked down top two pair to prove it, in the next hand. You can never be too careful.

Joe Ulm and Mike Linster yuck it up with 103 in the blinds. You play those cards?

John Garry is on dust at the moment, but had nine bounties claimed yesterday and 2 today. Here he gets a button shove with A2 past the blinds.

Bobby “The Professional” Cheung continues to surprise. Down to 3,000 today, he now has 400 and breathing room.

Getting one through: Sean Ripp, needing a double, shoves over a short open from Seat one, table 7.

On table 4, Tom McMahon opens JJ from UTG, gets shoved on by a shortie, and holds against 88. Now 700,000 and well over average.

Event 2 of the BWPO is the Black Chip Bounty NLH event and it drew a massive field of 1,106 entries creating a prize pool  of over $375,000. Day 1 has come to an end after 14 levels of play and our chip leader wishes to remain anonymous.

He is a familiar face here at the Borgata and put 591,600 in the bag. “I have the worst luck whenever I’m on the blog” he tells us so for that reason he wishes to remain a mystery man.

Ricardo Eyzaguirre was right on his heels with 577,500 and is the only other player with over half a million.

Marc Effren

The players will return Saturday January 20 at 12 P.M. to resume Day 2 play. They will play to a winner and one lucky player will take home the $81,766 first prize and the trophy.

Below is a look at some of the big stacks that will advancing to Day 2. A full list of chip counts and Day 2 seating assignments will be posted as soon as they’re available.
