Welcome to Day 2 of the 2019 World Series of Poker Circuit Potawatomi Main Event!
After two Day 1 flights at the 2019 World Series of Poker Circuit Potawatomi Main Event, 70 of 447 players will return to Milwaukee, Wisconsin for Day 2 action, which kicks off at noon local time. Action resumes with 32:56 remaining in Level 16 (2,000/4,000/4,000), and the plan is to play ten more one-hour levels after, ending play for the day after Level 26 is complete.
Sohale Khalili returns to Day 2 with a commanding chip lead of 624,000, more than 100,000 ahead of his nearest competitor, Ravi Raghavan, who has 481,000. Rounding out the top five are Matthew Levin (382,000), Day 1b chip leader Jill Bryant (376,000), and Janae Magnuson (373,000).
Two former WSOP Circuit Potawatomi Main Event champs also return to the felt as February's Main Event champ Michael Hudson (148,000) and 2018 champ Keven Stammen (90,000) both survived Day 1a. Another WSOPC Main Event winner, Scott Hall (150,000), who shipped the WSOPC Ameristar St. Charles Main Event two weeks ago also returns for Day 2 action. WSOP Bracelet winners Brett Apter (339,000) and Alex Ziskin (334,000), as well as 12-time WSOPC ring winner Josh Reichard (132,000) also are in the hunt.
With 447 total entries, the Main Event eclipsed the $500,000 guarantee with a total prize pool of $677,602. The eventual champ will earn $138,317, along with a seat in the 2020 WSOPC Global Championship. The tournament pays 68 places, meaning just two players have to bust before players earn a min-cash of $2,533.
