Day 2 Coming Up
Topping the leaderboard is Andy "BKiCe" Seth with 245,600 in chips. Phillips Collins, Mark Ketteringham and Team PokerStars Pro Chris Moneymaker round out the list of names who bagged up over 200,000 chips. The average stack going into Day 2 is just over 55,000 chips.
Other members of Team PokerStars Pro joining Moneymaker on Day 2 are Barry Greenstein (40,700), Jason Mercier (41,000), Bill Chen (43,100), Tom McEvoy (50,900), Joe Cada (67,000), Daniel Negreanu (76,500), Victor Ramdin (16,900), Greg Raymer (144,100), Joe Hachem (35,600), Vanessa Rousso (144,900) and Dennis Phillips (16,400). Friend of PokerStars Orel Hershiser bagged up 84,000 chips and is also still in the mix.
The remaining players will kick off play at 12:00 p.m. local time here in Las Vegas. The schedule says we're going to be plying down to 54 players or finishing six levels, whichever comes first. It doesn't look like we're going to get anywhere near 54 players, so it looks like after six levels we'll be done.
