Lascar and Lampropulos Bust to End Day 2
The field has been reduced to just 120 hopefuls and thus the clocks have been stopped to bag and tag nine players away from the money as previously announced by the tournament floor.
The last two casualties were David Lascar and Maria Lampropulos, who were ousted on neighboring tables at almost the same time.
First it was Lascar that open-shoved for 26,000 first to act and Jason Wheeler in the big blind used his last two remaining time bank extensions before making the call.
David Lascar: 
Jason Wheeler: 
The board came 
and Lascar headed to the rail.
Lampropulos raised to 7,500 and was called by two-time WSOP Main Event finalist Antoine Saout in the big blind. Saout bet the 
flop for 8,000 and Lampropulos called. After the 
turn, Saout bet 16,000 and Lampropulos shoved for what appeared tobe 40,000, the instant call of Saout followed.
Maria Lampropulos: 
Antoine Saout: 
Only a jack could help 2018 PCA champion Lampropulos, but instead it was the blank 
that fell on the river to end Day 2 with 120 players remaining.
