The first level of day two of the 2007 Seniors Event is over and level 12 is already underway. The day started with 153 players and in just one short hour the field is down to 93.

Tom McEvoy has been amongst the chip leaders during the entire tournament and shows no signs of giving up that position. Already sitting with a healthy stack, McEvoy continued to dominate at his table. Following a series of preflop raises and reraises Tom McEvoy found himself involved in a hand with the player in seat eight. McEvoy checked a flop of K 10 4 and his opponent in the eight seat bet out $4,500. McEvoy made the call and the turn was the 9. Both players checked and the river was the 10. McEvoy bet out $12,000 and his opponent thought for a few moments before folding and McEvoy took down the large pot.

The most notable elimination of the last hour, and of the entire tournament for that matter, was that of Amarillo Slim. Coming into day two as the chip leader, Amarillo Slim was eliminated by Hassan Kamoei shortly before the end of level 11. Kamoei raised to $9,000 and Slim reraised to $34,000. Kamoei came back over the top all in for $60,000. Slim was barely covered and made the call. Slim showed 10 10 and Kamoei was holding A A. The board came 4 3 2 J J and Amarillo Slim was eliminated. The players at Slim's table began to applaud and soon the entire tournament area was clapping as Amarillo Slim walked away from his table. Tournament Official Nolan Dolla announced Slim's elimination over the loud speaker and labeled Slim as "a great ambassador of the game." The entire Amazon Room joined in applause and Slim simply smiled, doffed his rattlesnake cowboy hat and simulated the motion of playing a violin. Kamoei jumped to almost $120,000 after the hand and now finds himself in the top five in chips.

Mickey Wernick from England doubled up to $40,000 in chips when his KK stood up against his caller's A9. Read his Pro Blog at CardPlayer.com.
