James Campbell

The last hand of the night was certainly a memorable one to say the least. A player limped in and James Campbell raised to 100,000. The player called and they went heads up to the K♣️Q♣️J♣️ flop.

The player open shoved for 793,000 sending Campbell deep into the tank. He eventually tossed out one chip to signify the call turning over 10♥️9♥️ for a flopped straight.

His opponent tabled her Q♦️J♠️ for two pair and the turn 6♦️ and river 4♦️ sealed the deal for Campbell. 

The biggest pot of the tournament was shipped his way giving Campbell the overall Event 2 chip lead with 2,727,000.

With that elimination Day 1D play has concluded with just 31 players remaining and they will be joining the 53 Day 1A-C survivors on Day 2.

The combined Day 1A-E survivors will return on Monday October 8 at 12 P.M. to resume play and play down to a winner.
