In stark contrast to first hours of Event No. 28, when the option to rebuy encouraged wild, loose play and frequent action, Day 2 was characterized by cautious, measured moves, particularly once we neared the cash bubble. All of the rebuys and add-ons in Day 1 had turned this pot-limit Omaha event into a deep-stacked tourney, and many players chose not to gamble as frequently in an effort to make it into the final 18 and the money.

As a result, we have ourselves yet another heavy-hitting WSOP final table for you tomorrow. Indeed, this may be the most star-studded we've seen yet, with no less than four multiple WSOP bracelet winners (Johnny Chan, Phil Hellmuth, Daniel Negreanu, and John Juanda), two of whom are former Main Event champions.

Will Daniel Negreanu become the first two-time winner this summer? Will David Benyamine capture his first bracelet? Will chip leader Phil Galfond, Brian Rast, Adam Hourani, or Kirill Gerasimov take the title? Will Chan win his 11th bracelet, or Hellmuth his 12th?

Come back tomorrow at 3pm Vegas time for the answers.
