Matthew Baker has been enjoying himself since he sat down on Day 2e, and for good reason - he already has another stack in the bank for Day 2f later on when it kicks off at 9pm online.

"It's going really well today," he told us. "I lost with queens to kings in the first hand after the break, but I've come back since and hit a flush when all-in with {A-Hearts}{10-Hearts} on the flop."

Having begun the day on 880,000 in this flight, Baker has now risen up the leaderboard with 1.4 million and is really cooking.

"I can really go for a big stack in the online flight, that's the plan if I get through with this." he told us.

Baker looks ready to make Day 3 with one of the biggest stacks...can he possibly top current overall Day 3 chip leader Richard King with over 13 million? Stranger things have happened.
