Negreanu made a big move on Day 2 of the event, working his stack from around 30k to well over 300k. Negreanu's stack swelled in size after getting involved in a massive pot against ClubWPT.com qualifier William Jesse James.
After a flop of 2c 3d 5c, the two players entered into a raising war and were soon all-in. Negreanu showed 3c 4c for a pair of threes and a MONSTER draw, while James showed 3-8 for a pair of threes.
The turn brought a 4, giving Negreanu two pair, which ended up being good enough to win the hand.
A short while later, Daniel rivered quad Eights to take down another big pot, catapulting him to the top of the tournament leaderboard.
Vanessa Rousso (222k), Mark Seif (187k) and Howard Lederer (129k) also managed to turn in strong performances on Saturday.
Some of the other notable names who are still alive in this event include:
Johnny Chan, 114k Erica Schoenberg, 107k Robert Mizrachi, 105k Prahlad Friedman, 99k Brett Richey, 97k Adam Levy, 80k Annie Duke, 69k Gavin Griffin, 63k Allen Cunningham, 62k Todd Brunson, 59k Barry Greenstein, 45k Jennifer Tilly, 44k Hoyt Corkins, 34k Bruce Buffer, 15k
All of the remaining 180+ players in the tournament have their sights set on the first place prize, which is a very healthy $1.79 million.

He's tried to bluff Negreanu probably, but on the other hand negreanu well known for his small ball strategy, so its obvious that he did catch something, it seems William Jesse James was a real fish there, maybe he was drunk? lol..
but ACE on the river gave Shulman no1
