Level 29 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Day 2 hasn��t been kind to Day 1 chip leader Qiang Xu, whose chip stack has been in a steady decline.

It didn��t get better for the WSOP bracelet winner after Xu moved all in from the button, only to see Joshua Hernandez also move all in with a shorter stack.

The big blind immediately folded, prompting a showdown between Hernandez and Xu.

Joshua Hernandez: A?A?All in
Qiang Xu: K?9?

Xu never improved his hand after the dealer fanned J?5?Q?3?J? on the board, giving Hernandez a double up and leaving Xu on fumes.
