Action was on Latin American Poker Tour Season 4 Player of the Year Pablo Gonzalez opened for 5,000 and the player in the big blind defended. When the flop came down 
, the big blind fired out 9,000 and Gonzalez mucked.
In the next two hands, he folded from the blinds, which diminished his stack to just 8,000.
Carlos Munoz opened to 4,600 in early position and was called by the player in the cutoff. Waldermar Barrientos tagged along from the small blind, too, to see a 
flop.
Barrientos checked it to Munoz who bet 5,700. The player in the cutoff shoved for about 28,000, chasing away Barrientos. Munoz, though, called immediately and tabled 
. He trailed against the cutoff's 
, but following the 
turn and 
river, Munoz took it down with a flush to win the pot.
Level: 12
Blinds: 1,000/2,000
Ante: 300
Action folded around to the player on the button, and he out in a raise to 4,300, which Sebastian Rios called from the big blind. Both players proceeded to check the 
flop before Rios led out for 4,300 on the turn. His opponent called, and then once again both players checked on the 
river.
Rios confidently rolled over 
, but it was no good as the button revealed 
for aces with a better kicker.
Unfortunately André Akkari busted late on Day 1b, becoming the last Team PokerStars Pro to do so. Even so, we hate to let a good video go to waste, so we thought we'd still show you the interview he did prior to his elimination.
After the player in the hijack opened to 3,400, Silvana Pereira called from the small blind. The big blind came along, too, and an 
flop followed.
Pereira announced she was all in (which was for about 23,000), but the big blind isolated the pot with an all in of his own. Pereira tabled 
, but the big blind had her beat with 
. The 
turn and river were no help to Pereira, ending her Main Event towards the end of Level 11.
Day 1a chip leader Waldermar Barrientos has had a tough time going during the first level on Day 2.
Most recently we caught him in a hand where after a 
, there was a check and a bet of 5,100 in front of Barrientos. He put in a raise to 12,100, but was met with a check-raise shove for 35,500. The bettor ducked out of the way, as did a seemingly frustrated Barrientos.
We've been trying to catch some other hands, but it seems Sebastian Altieri and Daniela Horno can't get enough action against one another. In a recent hand, action folded to Altieri in the cutoff and he opened for 3,600. Horno is to his direct left and she made the call, which inspired the rest of the field to get out of the way.
When the flop fell 
, Altieri bet 6,800, Horno called, and then both players checked the 
turn. Altieri proceeded to check-call a bet of 9,000 on the 
river, only to muck when Horno rolled over 
for a flush.
Action folded to Sebastian Altieri in the hijack and he opened for 3,400. Daniela Horno was in the cutoff and made the call, while the player in the big blind came along for the ride. When the flop came down 
, it went check-check to Horno, who bet 6,500.
The big blind quickly folded, as did Altieri, who showed . Horno obliged by showing her cards . . . 
.
Picking up the action on the river of a 
board with about 14,000 in the middle, Sebastian Altieri bet 11,000. Daniela Horno popped it to 34,000, but was faced with a decision after Altieri came over the top with a re-raise to 68,000.
Horno spent about 30 seconds in the tank before folding and was no doubt relieved to see Altieri show her 
for the absolute nuts.
