Event #42: $1,500 No-Limit Hold’em
Day 2 Completed
After 12 hours of poker action, 25 players are left to bag and tag their chips and head into Day 3 of Event #42: $1,500 No-Limit Hold’em.
277 players came back for Day 2 and after just seven eliminations at the beginning of the day, the final 270 players were in the money. The chip leader to start the day, Jackson Zheng, would not stick around long enough to bag his chips at the end of the night. History will not be made tomorrow, as Carter Phillips, who could have become the youngest player to win two bracelets in the same year, was eliminated as well.
The chip leader going into tomorrow is James Schaaf with 1,258,000. Just behind him, and the only other player with over one million is Ryan Hemmel with 1,080,000. Deep into the money, Dean Hamrick was down to just 3,500 in chips, but managed to claw his way out of the trenches and is now sitting third on the chip leaderboard. Humberto Brenes is still lurking, rounding out the top five with 764,000. Bernard Lee will have some catching up to do tomorrow when he returns to the felt, as he will come back with the shortest stack at just 48,000.
Who will be left at the end of the day tomorrow? Keep it locked here to find out! We'll see you back here at 2:30 p.m. local time for all the action.
