The Madness Kick Off Event Day 2 just finished its first break of the day. Only 86 players are left out of the 167 returned for Day 2. Here are the current big stacks:

With the bubble delivered, Day 1D of the Madness Kick Off Event ended with the 56 players remaining. The battle for the top dog spot was between Vu Ta Nhat and Pham Bao.

One level before the bubble round was reached, Pham open shoved with J♥ 5♣ from the small blind and got lucky against big blind's A♥ 9♠ with a jack showing up. This gave Pham the lead however it was brief with Vu doubling up holding K♦ T♣ on a board J♦ Q♥ 5♥ 7♦ 9♠ to jump into the top spot.

Just before the bubble burst, Vu and Pham faced off. With blinds at 5000-10,000, Vu opened, Pham called from the button. Both checked the flop then Pham bet the turn and river Q♠ 9♥ 5♣ T♠ 7♣ . Vu folded to the river bet.
