Another 38 Through To Day 2 of the Seneca Fall Poker Classic Main Event

The second and final starting flight for the 2017 Seneca Fall Poker Classic Main Event drew 176 entries inside the Niagara Falls Poker Room at the Seneca Niagara Casino & Resort Saturday.

That made for a total of 271 over the two flights, creating a $239,212 prize pool. The top 27 finishers will all get paid with a $58,608 top prize awaiting to the winner, and over $10,000 for anyone that can make the top six.

After 15 levels of play in the second starting flight, just 38 players survived. Add them to the 19 from the first flight and a total of 57 are going through to Sunday to fight for a spot at the final table.

Paul McLean will take the overall lead into Sunday's Day 2 on a massive heap of 468,000 in chips. It was simply a day where he always seemed to have the better pair, the bigger straight or the higher flush. Not to mention so many full houses he could build a subdivision full of them. He even made a Royal Flush in the last few hands of the night to put a cherry on the cake that was his day.

Tomorrow is another day, however. Anything can happen and PokerNews will be on hand for it all. Play will resume at 11 a.m. local time in Niagara Falls. Be sure to click through to see how it all shakes down in the 2017 Seneca Fall Poker Classic Main Event.
