Day: 2
Day 2 of the Potomac Poker Open $3300 Main Event Commences at 3 p.m.
It’s time for Day 2 of the Potomac Poker Open $3300 Main Event. Some 77 players remain with a chance to win the event and the $247,950 prize up top for the winner. Those 77 will be joined by the survivors of Flight C which will finish shortly before the beginning of Day 2 (which begins at 3 p.m. local time).
The field drew 348 entries in total, which creates a prizepool of just over the 1 million guarantee with 1,044,000. The top 36 players will get paid, with a min cash being worth $5,742.
Dylan Lask leads the way entering Day 2 with a stack of 495,500. Several other players will take a big stack with them into play today including Benjamin Morgan (453,500), Tony Gregg (402,500), Rich Weinhold (398,000) and Jordan Fisch (398,00). These big stack players will likely be joined by one or two large ones from the conclusion of Flight C.
Play begins at 3 p.m at level 14 with blinds at 2,500/5,000 and a 5,00 big blind ante. The average stack will be just shy of 40 big blinds. Each level played today will be 60 minutes in length and play will continue until a final table and will then stop in order to come back for the conclusion on Monday August 5.
