Big Stax 500 (Day 2): Updated Action

Level 22 - Blinds 10,000/20,000/3,000 (Chip Average: 1,200,000)
Players Remaining: 19

Table 47: Parx regular and local favorite Joe Palma (Bensalem, PA) is eliminated as his short stack gets it in with A J versus A K. 

Table 46:  We walk over to a hand between Joe Liberta and Jose Gallegos.  The flop is 8 6 4 and Gallegos is calling a 120,000 bet from Liberta.  The turn brings a 5 and Liberta fires out once more, this time for 208,000.  After the 2 on the river, Joe announces himself all-in (and has Gallegos covered).  Jose goes into the tank for upwards of 7-8 minutes, talking out loud and trying to figure out the hand.  After what seemed like forever Gallegos makes the call and quickly flips over Q Q, but is sent home after Liberta tables 7 8 for the straight.  Liberta is now well over 1,000,000.
