Allen Cunningham has been fairly quiet for the past level, but we managed to catch him in some action recently.
Cunningham opened to 1,600 from middle position and found callers in both the small and big blinds.
The flop came 
and both blinds checked to Cunningham, who fired a c-bet for 2,000 and change. Both blinds quickly folded.
Cunningham is up to 38,500.

Lars Bonding began the day with 93,950 but has been stuck in reverse here on Day 2b. In a recent hand, there was about 10,000 in the pot and a flop of 
when Bonding bet 5,025 from the big blind. His opponent called from the button and the duo watched the dealer burn and turn the 
.

A player in Seat 1 at Table 349 opened for a raise, Michael Lavin three-bet near the button, and the original raiser put in a fourth bet to 15,000. Lavin five-bet shoved for effectively 45,000, and the original raiser put his head in his hands. After a beat, he called, and turned over two red kings.
Lavin turned over 
, and did not improve as the board ran 
.
We caught up to the action to find Salvatore Bonavena on the button playing a raised pot against an unknown player in the cut-off on a 
flop. The cut-off had put out a bet of 6,000 and the decision was on Bonavena who after a few moments moved all in for around 15,500. His opponent begrudgingly called and cards were tabled.
Bonavena: 
Cut-Off:
Bonavena's trumped his opponent's pair of jacks for the moment, but there were still two cards to come. With the 
turn and the river Bonavena was granted safe passage to his double up and now sits with over 40,000.

"I thrive in casinos, though…"
So said Aaron Massey, responding to Vincent Baldassano once their table talk drifted to the topic of home game heroes. "You win in casinos, then?" said Baldassano. "Oh, no, no... I lose all the time," said Massey with a grin. "I'm talking about picking up waitresses. I do well with them. As far as poker goes I'm a real loser..."
The table laughed, perhaps knowing Massey was having fun with them. Massey may be underselling himself just a tad. After all, he did final table Event No. 45 this summer ($1,000 NLHE), finishing eighth.
The conversation continued, with Massey eventually dubbing Baldassano "The Sultan" and the latter liking the idea of having obtained a new poker nickname. Meanwhile John Racener and an opponent became involved in a hand, at which point the table talk ceased.
Racener and his opponent had reached the turn with the board showing 
and about 9,000 in the middle. Racener's opponent bet 6,000, and Racener called. The river brought the 
and both players checked. Racener tabled 
, better than his opponent's 
, and he quietly claimed the pot.
"He's the real Sultan," said Baldassano afterwards, jerking a thumb toward Racener. Racener now has 122,000.
We rolled up on the table just in time to see Laurent Pech all in for his last 7,500 or so and called by a player in middle position.
Showdown
Pech: 
Opponent:
The board ran out an uneventful 
and Pech was sent to the rail.
On another note, Amanda Musumeci is sitting on about 190,000 and was recently moved to the Amazon Orange section to take the place of the recently-relocated Eric Mizrachi, who is no longer seated at the same table as his brother Donny.

Garry Gates opened to 1,100 from middle position and was three-bet to 3,350 from Maya Geller in the hi-jack. Action folded back around to Gates, who flatted.
The flop came 
and Gates checked to Geller, who bet 6,500. Gates fell into the tank and counted his remaining chips a couple times before finally giving his hand up.
Geller graciously showed him 
and mucked.
Gates is down to his last 30,500 while Geller is currently sitting with 60,000.
