The Table is Set For Ten

Well, that's a wrap for Day 2 of this WSOP-C Main Event.
From a starting field of 382, just 70 returned to the stage for this moving day. The goal was to play down to the final table, but play was called after twelve hours on the felt. Ten players remained, and the chip math said we were supposed to be done by this point. At the end of the level, the floorman told the players that the stop time had come, but they could play on if they all wanted to. Jake Bazeley was already standing from his chair, and he raised his hand and said, "I wanna stop." That's that. With the bags out, it's Todd Wood with the most work to, stuffing 1,619,000 chips into the thin plastic sack.
The day began with Mario Silvestri and Allie Prescott way out in front of the field, but both of them would have to settle for small cashes after running aground today. Prescott went out in mouth-puckering fashion, running his second-place stack and pocket kings into the chip leader's aces with 18 players left. He was awfully disappointed as he picked up his check -- but at least he had some money waiting for him when he dropped. The same could not be said for the likes of Adam Levy, Keith Crowder, Aaron Massey, and a couple dozen others who were forced to leave with empty hands today.
When the bubble burst at 45 players, the action exploded. Michael Traylor and Mike Beasley were two of the first to go home with small paychecks, and they were soon followed out the door by Circuit studs Dwyte Pilgrim and Mstr Lynch. We expected to fill out this paragraph with the story of the final table bubble boy, but his story is yet to be written as the "official" final table has not been reached.
That leaves our final ten players set for tomorrow's run to the ring. Here's how the table will stack up when the players return to the felt tomorrow:
| Seat | Player | Chips |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Lance Craig | 694,000 |
| 2 | Joshua Evans | 1,159,000 |
| 3 | Matt Waxman | 460,000 |
| 4 | Robert Toye | 882,000 |
| 5 | Jonathon Poche | 656,000 |
| 6 | Jake Bazeley | 983,000 |
| 7 | Todd Wood | 1,619,000 |
| 8 | Billie Payne | 307,000 |
| 9 | Scott Zakheim | 491,000 |
| 10 | James McBride | 395,000 |
The final table runs at 2:00 sharp tomorrow afternoon, and we'll be back on the rail to bring you the last chapter of this final Main Event of the 2010-11 Circuit season.
Until tomorrow, all that's left is goodnight.
