Day 2 of St. Charles Main Event Kicks Off at Noon

Anthony Thompson

Day 2 of the World Series of Poker Circuit $1,700 Main Event St. Charles starts at noon. The two starting flights pulled together a total of 414 entries, which was enough to blast by the half a million guarantee that was set. Just 67 found a bag during the two starting flights and those lucky enough to do so will be returning on Day 2, battling it out for another ten levels of play.

Starting the day with the overall chip lead is Scott Hall who bagged large in Day 1b as he will look to add another deep run this series after finishing ninth in the Choctaw Main Event for $25,672.

Top 10 After Day 1 Flights

Position	Player	Country	Chip Count
1	Scott Hall	United States	423,000
2	Dino Galic	United States	399,000
3	HB Sablotney	United States	377,000
4	Ravi Raghavan	United States	374,000
5	Tanner Pray	United States	345,000
6	Zackary Estes	United States	340,000
7	Paul Strohm	United States	338,000
8	Frank Covich	United States	316,000
9	Scott Pritchard	United States	315,000
10	Roger Campbell	United States	311,500

Many other familiar faces will be battling it out for a shot at the six-figure top prize and some of which are Mike Shin (304,000), Brett Apter (289,000), Edward Dixon (239,000), Michael Esquivel (205,000), Nate Bandy (205,000), Martin Ryan (144,000), Andros Ioakimides (120,000) and Keven Stammen (75,000).

There will be 67 starting Day 2 with 63 spots grabbing a piece of the prize pool. Starting the day this close to the money might make for some conservative play, but judging by the first two flights the tournament should retain the action-filled play that has been up to this point. A min-cash will be paying $2,532, but all eyes will be on the $130,667 first-place prize that the eventual champion will be taking home, along with a shiny new gold ring.
