Nur Christian Rudolph und Manuel Mutke hatten es von den deutschsprachigen Spielern in Tag 2 beim $1.500 No Limit Hold’em Event # 17 der World Series of Poker (WSOP) geschafft. Manuel Mutke konnte auch den zweiten Tag erfolgreich beenden und startet von Rang 8 aus in den Finaltag.
Schon zu Beginn von Tag 2 waren die Geldränge zum Greifen nahe. 226 Spieler nahmen ihre Plätze ein, 216 von ihnen sollten zumindest $2.898 gewinnen. Kaum begonnen waren dann auch schon die Geldränge erreicht und actionreich ging es weiter. Die deutschen Chancen wurden um 50 % reduziert, als Christian Rudolph mit Platz 181 für $2.898 zum Cashier geschickt wurde. Damit ruhten alle Hoffnungen auf Manuel Mutke und der mischte ganz vorne mit.
Viele Bekannte musste im Laufe des Tages an die Rails. James Dempsey verlor den Flip mit Pocket 9s gegen 
, Jake Cody verlor bis auf einen Big Blind alle Chips mit Queens gegen Kings. Fabrice Soulier lief gegen die Asse von David „Bakes“ Baker, Vanessa Selbst hatte mit der Straße das Nachsehen gegen ein Full House.
Bei 27 verbliebenen Spielern holte Athansios Polychronopoulos einen Riesenpot, als er mit 
Joe Kuether mit 
und Matt Matros mit 
nach Hause schickte. Ian Frazer musste sich auch verabschieden, als er mit 
gegen die Jacks von David „Bakes“ Baker das Board verpasste.
Als noch 18 Spieler an zwei Tischen übrig waren, erging es Manuel Mutke nicht mehr so gut. Er war weit zurückgefallen, sollte noch kurz vor Schluss verdoppeln und es in den Finaltag schaffen. Mit dem Ausscheiden von Brian Kaverman auf Rang 16 war der Tag beendet und 15 Spieler tüteten ihre Chips für das Finale ein.
Chipleader ist nun David „Bakes“ Baker knapp vor Athanasios Polychronopoulos. Manuel Mutke liegt auf Rang 8 und er hat bereits $23.700 sicher – sowie seinen ersten WSOP Final Table zum Greifen nahe.
