Jesper Hougaard raised to 3,500 on the button and received a call from the recently-moved David "Devilfish" Ulliott in the big blind. The Devilfish then check-called a bet of 4,400 on the 
flop, leading to the 
turn. Again Ulliott checked and Hougaard bet, this time 11,000.
The Devilfish snap-folded before telling Hougaard: "I guess you and I are going to war, pal."
Yesterday we reported on a hand where Jason Mercier knocked out three players when he made a backdoor flush draw. While we didn't see much of the hand just now, it looks like he has just done it again, eliminating Chance Kornuth and Brandon Paster. The board was 
, and after catching Mercier's hand just before it was flipped over, he had 
for a backdoor flush. With that pot, Mercier is now at 235,000.
Tom "durrrr" Dwan has been slowly building a stack here in the early goings of Day 2. In a recent hand, a player in the cutoff had raised and received a call from George Lind on the button. Action was then on Dwan in the small blind and he bet pot, which totaled 14,400.
The cutoff quickly folded, followed by Lind a short time later. Dwan took down the pot without so much as a flop, bringing his stack to around 122,000.

Shaun Deeb called us over to the table to report an "incident." According to Deeb and Chance Kornuth, Team PokerStars Pro (USA) Jason Mercier had just informed the table that the blinds were up . . . when he was on the button . . . six minutes into the level. Deeb and Kornuth were clearly joking around and simply giving Mercier a hard time.
"You guys are retarded," was all Mercier could shoot back.
Photos are Fun.

turn and
