Day 2 Started
Welcome to Day 2 of Jason Somerville's 2015 Run It Up Reno $565 Main Event. After 103 players from 239 entries advanced from Day 1a and 41 players from 65 entries moved on from Day 1b, 144 competitors remain from the overall field size of 304 entries.
Leading the way into Day 2 is Eric Ethans, co-founder of Suja Juice. Ethans bagged up a very big 180,200 in chips from the 25,000-chip starting stack on Day 1a by playing a highly-active style.
Other notables to advance included mixed-game specialist Michael Trivett (148,500), Dan O'Brien (104,100), Barstool Nate (99,000) and both Survivor players that entered, Rob "Boston Rob" Mariano (65,900) and Tyson Apostol (40,300).
Late registration and reentry will remain open until the first hand is dealt for Day 2, so there's still plenty of time for the field to grow.
Stay tuned for coverage coming your way shortly.
