Day 2 of Event 12 Almost Set To Start

Mickey Doft

Eric Froehlich is making another heads-up tournament run

Welcome to Day 2 of Event 12, the $10,000 Heads-Up No-Limit Hold'em. A field of 152 came to play and after two matches for some (and three for others), only 32 remain with hopes of capturing the coveted WSOP gold bracelet. Many notable players remain, including last year's fourth-place finisher in the $25,000 Heads-Up No-Limit Hold'em affair last summer. Eric Froehlich brings his A-game when it comes to playing heads-up and following his wins against Ronald Crabtree, Jason Somerville, and Steve O'Dwyer, Froehlich has put himself into position to capture his third WSOP bracelet.

Parker Doubles Through Radoja

Level 52 : 1,000/2,000, 0 ante

Brock Parker trailed early in his match against Mark Radoja, but just doubled up to basically even the match

Parker raised to 4,000 on the button and Radoja called to see a {Q-Hearts} {8-Diamonds} {7-Diamonds} flop. What followed was a series of raises that led to Parker all in and at risk for his first bullet with {Q-Spades} {9-Clubs} against Radoja's {K-Diamonds} {8-Hearts} . The {5-Diamonds} turn and {2-Spades} river were no help to Radoja, who is now back down to about 80,000 and tied with Parker.

Paul Volpe and Chae An didn't waste time using all of their bullets as Volpe has defeated An to advance to the next round.

Down to less than 50,000, An three-bet jammed all in over Volpe's opening raise. A call from from Volpe revealed {A-Spades} {K-Clubs} , dominating the {A-Clubs} {2-Diamonds} held by An.

The {Q-Hearts} {J-Diamonds} {5-Hearts} flop didn't help An, but he took the lead with {2-Clubs} turn. The {K-Diamonds} river, however, gave Volpe the hand and the match with top pair to advance.
