Connor Heelis Eliminated in 17th Place ($6,680)

Level 13 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Connor Heelis
Connor Heelis

Connor Heelis and Jack Salter were also quick to get their chips in the middle preflop at the start of day and they were also in a classic flip.

Connor Heelis: J?10?
Jack Salter: 2?2?

The flop scrolled across 4?5?5?, keeping Salter in front, but the turn was a sweat with the 8?, giving Heelis the flush draw. Unfortunately for Heelis, it wasn't meant to be and the the A? worked as a brick on the river.

Christopher Battenfield and David Williams got their chips in the middle preflop, just about two minutes into the start of Day 2.

Christopher Battenfield: A?Q?
David Williams: 9?9?

The board ended up no help to Battenfield as it ran out 4?4?J?8?10? and he was sent to the payouts desk after a particularly short-lived Day 2.
