End of Day 2

Kaveh Payman
Kaveh Payman

Wow, what a day. We started with 80 players remaining today but only 56 of them were able to take home some money. The unfortunate bubble was Song Lee, the last to leave with nothing.

Many names managed to cash, including former WPT winner Tommy Vedes, November Niner Matthew Jarvis and the legend that is Allen "Chainsaw" Kessler. Former EPT champion Anton Wigg also managed to make it deep but couldn't get to the final hurdle.

The final table will start tomorrow and though he isn't the chip leader, all eyes will be on the young Englishman JP Kelly. Should he win tomorrow, he will break Phil Ivey's record of the youngest player to win three bracelets. He would also become the first player since Johnny Chan won the main event in back-to-back years to successfully defend a no-limit hold'em title.

But there are still eight other players on the final table and it is Kaveh Payman who will go into tomorrow as the chip leader:

Seat 1: Karim Jomeen - 109,000
Seat 2: Scott Shelley - 148,000
Seat 3: Nicky Katz - 150,000
Seat 4: Paul Ian Pitchford - 77,000
Seat 5: Jeppe Bisgaard - 171,000
Seat 6: Mehdi Senhaji - 369,000
Seat 7: Kaveh Payman - 434,000
Seat 8: JP Kelly - 242,000
Seat 9: Jack Lyman - 55,000

How will this tournament play out? Well, tune in at 2pm local time to find out!
