Yesterday at the 2014 World Series of Poker, we saw a field of 967 whittled down to 113 players by the end of the evening in Event #37: $1,500 Pot-Limit Omaha.
This meant the players were already in the money and now they come into play today knowing that at a minimum they've made a profit. Looking to do more than just turn a small profit is the current chip leader Brandon Paster who bagged an impressive 135,300 in chips.
Not far behind him is bracelet winner, Fabrice Soulier, who had a stack of 129,300 when all was said and done. Michael Wang was a close third ending with 113,900 in chips.
There are plenty of notables lurking in the pack looking to make their mark in this event. Heading the way among those names is none other than Erick Lindgren who ended the day with a top five stack of 100,000 in chips.
Others joining him in their pursuit of WSOP glory are Taylor Paur, Galen Hall, Layne Flack, Kevin Saul, Bryan Micon, Martins Adeniya, Scott Seiver, and the king of cashing at this year's WSOP, Humberto Brenes.
Play will resume within the next hour at 1 p.m. Las Vegas time. PokerNews will be here for all the action with updates throughout the day. Tune in and find out who pushes through to the end!
