A total of 69 players returned for day 2 action at the 2016 Card Player Poker Tour bestbet Jacksonville main event, with the plan of playing down to the money and then, the final table.

What promised to be a long day turned into a relatively short one as 15 players hit the rail in the first hour of play. Not even the big stacks were safe from the carnage, as overnight chip leader Austin Peck, who started the day with 105 big blinds, was eliminated well before the money bubble.

Final Table Chip Leader Brian WoodsIt took less than an orbit for hand-for-hand play to produce the bubble boy, Thad McNulty. The Jacksonville local lost a big flip and was eliminated, guaranteeing the final 37 players earned at least a $1,678 payday.

Once the money was reached, big stacks such as John Swope, Zac Stites, Brandon Miller and Brian Woods had more than their fair share of eliminations, helping the tournament reach the final table of nine by 7 p.m.

Woods, who is a local poker dealer in Orange Park, will take the chip lead into the final table. The final table will be streamed live on Card Player Monday afternoon at 2 p.m. ET. The blinds going into the final table will be 12,000-24,000 with a 4,000 ante, meaning the average stack of 802,000 is worth 33 big blinds.
