Azad Sahbudak limped in from middle position and Jesse Crenan went all-in with a stack of about 80,000. The action folded to Jason Lee in the small blind, who re-shoved a stack of 27,000. Sahbudak tanked when the action came back around to him and eventually put in a reluctant call with both opponents covered.
Jason Lee:
Jesse Crenan:
Azad Sahbudak:
"C'mon, man! How do you not fold?" Crenan whined when he saw he was dominated.
The board ran out for Lee to spike a ten on the river to triple up, while the side pot went to Sahbudak and Crenan was eliminated.
The second-largest bounty of $25,000 is no longer in play as it was pulled by overall Day 1 chip leader Jason Cummings, while the elusive $50,000 bounty is still up for grabs.
Mary Darnell raised all-in with a stack of around 186,000 Ben Scrogins called with a bigger stack.
Mary Darnell:
Ben Scrogins:
Darnell was in great shape to double up until the flop came to pair Scrogins' ace and Darnell was drawing dead after the turn as another player at the table had folded a ten. The river brought the inconsequential and the opening event champion was eliminated.

Cards are in the air and action is underway in Day 2 of $1,680 NLH Mystery Bounty Main Event.
The two players who double-bagged, Eddy Mroczkowski and Greg Robinson, had the option of pulling their bonus bounties before the tournament started and both chose to do so. Mroczkowski was first up and pulled a $5,000 bounty, while Robinson scored a $2,000 bounty.
Day 2 of the $1,680 NLH Mystery Bounty Main Event at the 2022 bestbet Jacksonville Spring Series is about to get underway with $81,245 and the bestbet trophy and action getting underway at noon ET.
Only 50 players survived the three combined starting flights to see Day 2, including Eddy Mroczkowski and Greg Robinson, who both bagged two starting flights and therefore will earn a minimum cash and get a bonus draw at the $50,000 bounty.
Other players who made Day 2 include Ben Scrogins, Jessica Cai, Steve Zhang, Jesse Crenan, Bryan Brockmeier, David Moore, Matt Sunberg and Mary Darnell, who is looking for her second trophy of the series after taking down Event #1: $560 NLH for $36,450.
Jason Cummings will enter the day as overall chip leader with a stack of 561,000, or 140 blinds, while Gil Levy and Joseph Dornish are close on his tail with respective stacks of 450,000 and 429,000. Other big stacks include Adam Wells (406,000) Nicholas Raio (328,000) and Keith Schwartz (307,000).
Play will resume with 36 minutes remaining in Level 14 with blinds at 2,000/4,000/4,000. The tournament will play down to a winner and Day 2 will feature a live-streamed final table that can be viewed on YouTube, Twitch and Facebook.
