Thom Werthmann (86th), Thor Hansen (82nd), "Minneapolis Jim" Meehan (76th), and Mihn Nguyen (72nd). all could not survive the first hour of Day Two.Nguyen, despite sitting for almost an hour with about $4,500 in chips, while the average stack has closer to $45,000, was in great spirits, and celebrated with his tablemates including David Chiu when he squeaked past another pay bump. Nguyen found himself all-in soon after with K-J against his opponent's 10-10. The flop came K-Q-10, but Nguyen would not make his straight as was sent to the rail. Others players still very much in the game include David Sklansky, Matt Hawrilenko (who was moved into Nguyen's seat), and Scott Keikoan. They are down to 7 tables, looking to get down to the final nine players before the end of the day.
