Schon an Tag 1 waren bei Event # 42, dem $1.000 No Limit Hold’em der World Series of Poker, die Geldränge erreicht worden. Viele Deutsche hatten es in Tag 2 geschafft, allerdings musste sich Sven Rumcker als bester von ihnen mit Rang 18 knapp vor dem Finale geschlagen geben.
Thomas Butzhammer war als Achter im Chipcount in den Tag gestartet und hatte damit die beste Ausgangsposition. Er musste aber gleich zu Beginn Chips lassen und fiel weit zurück. Auch an Tag 2 war das Tempo sehr hoch und die Reihen lichteten sich schnell. Die deutschsprachigen Spieler wurden ebenso schnell weniger – Manig Loeser nahm Platz 157, Markus Herbel 114 und Thomas Butzhammer 63. Damit waren noch Kai Dressler und Sven Rumcker im Rennen um den Finaleinzug.
Preflop callte dann Kai die 4-Bet von Ariel Celestino. Am Flop 
callte Kai auch die C-Bet und am Turn 
raiste er all-in. Ariel callte mit 
, Kai hatte nur Pocket 9s zu bieten. Der River blankte, Ariel verdoppelte und Kai blieben nur wenige Chips, die wenige Hände später weg waren. Platz 28 brachte ihm $8.316.
Damit war es nur noch Sven Rumcker, auf dem die deutschen Hoffnungen ruhten. Für ihn kam aber ebenfalls noch das Aus. Als die letzten 18 Spieler ihre Plätze an den letzten beiden Tischen eingenommen hatten, war Sven nur noch Vorletzter im Chipcount mit 12 BBs. Die setzte er auf 
und sah sich 
von Ariel Celestino gegenüber. Das Board 
und die Hoffnungen auf ein deutsche Bracelet bei diesem Event waren dahin.
Mit elf Spielern ging Tag 2 schließlich zu Ende. Rory Mathews ist der Chipleader im Kampf ums Bracelet und die Siegesprämie von $345.037.
