Earlier on, Farrell lost a big pot against Pantling on a dirty river. Farrell was holding JT and flopped Broadway on flop. He check-called the flop bet by Pantling. He then again check-called the bet when the turned, and once again, checked when the fell on the river. Pantling thought it about for some time, and then put in a bet of 480,000, which Farrell snap called. Unfortunately for Farrwell, Pantling had AQ, flopping two pair and boating up on the river.

Pantling is now way ahead of the others, however, with the blinds only at 7,000/14,000, there is still a ton of play ahead and there is a long way to go.

Speaking with the partypoker LIVE manager onsite, he had mentioned that in the Super High Roller that played in Rio, they only had a field of nine players on Day 1, however, it mushroomed to 42 players on Day 2. His expectations are that since many of the pros are only landing in Montreal this evening, quite a few should join the field for the Day 2 action. This tournament is long from over and day 2 should bring a lot of exciting action.

Here is the current leaderboard:
