Hal Klein Leads The Remaining 152 Players
Welcome to our coverage of Day 2 of Event #25: $5,000 Omaha Hi-Low 8-or-Better. The starting field of 241 entrants is down to 152, each looking to capture the $277,519 first-place prize.
Leading the way with 77,100 is Hal Klein. He is followed by Luis Velador (59,100), Pat Pezzin (58,400), Francesco "Cheech" Barbaro (52,000), and Brian Hastings (50,600) as the only players above the 50,000 mark. Last year's champion Joe Cassidy is also still in the mix with 38,000. Cassidy was a late arrival yesterday, taking his seat following the dinner break. Before long, he found himself on a short stack with only a few big bets remaining. However, Cassidy rode a nice heater to close the day with a top-30 stack.
Play resumes at 2pm local time, about 10 minutes from now, and is scheduled to commence until 10 levels are completed. The final 27 players make the money and we should reach that point before Day 2 reaches its end. Keep it here throughout the day as we move closer to crowning another World Series of Poker champion!
