As the final three hands played out on each table, the Barmy Army, who had been cheering over on the secondary feature table next to the ESPN Main Stage, came through and practically barnstormed the Purple section of the Amazon, chanting and drinking.

Needless to say, their antics didn't go down too well with most of the players or the floor staff and as they tried to settle the crowd down (who kept getting even more rambunctious), through all the commotion, we were unable to catch the details of Kuey's elimination.

Event #38: $1,500 No-Limit Hold’em
Day 2 completed
Day 2 in the Books, Lin Leads, Weisner Waiting in the Wings

Without a doubt, this could have been the most bizarre day we've ever had here in the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino. Period. If the rapid rate of attrition and the roars from the nearby final tables wasn't enough, it was all capped off with a huge British invasion that practically brought play to a standstill during the last three hands.

Still, from 298 players at the start of Day 2 of WSOP Event #35, we're now down to just 23. And emerging as our chip leader from all the madness is Perry Lin, with just over one million in chips. He's followed by Michael Blanovsky (757,000), Ryan Laplante (701,000), Jonathan Spinks (688,000) and Matthew Lupton (555,000).

We should also point out that Melanie Weisner has bagged up 549,000, but with the "last woman standing" moniker aside, she played some power poker throughout the day and will definitely be the one to watch tomorrow. Could she finally become the first female player to win a WSOP open bracelet since Vanessa Selbst in 2008?

All we know that after all that racket, it's time for a couple of Tylenol for our headaches and a good night's rest. Thanks for staying with us here at PokerNews, be sure to join us once again when we kick off tomorrow at 2.30pm PST (GMT -7).

Thanks guys finished the day on 760k haven't been below 500k for the last three hours so that shows you how slow the poker news updating has been. Had the chance to get over the million mark three hands before the end when i raised  and got shoved by  in the sb but the board came down 5q656.

Middy's rail was incredible in the background lets hope they'll stay on to rail me and Spinksy on the final tomorrow. 

[kinboshi]

Win it all Paul, I have every faith in you.  Spinks for 2nd would be nice as well

[Amatay]
