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.

Follow along with the PokerNews live reporting team as the WSOPC Potawatomi Main Event rolls on with Day 2 action!

Josh Reichard raised to 18,000 from the small blind, and Kou Vang called in the big blind.

Reichard led out for 16,000 on the {6-Spades}{4-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} flop, and Vang called.

The {10-Hearts} fell on the turn, and Reichard bet 36,000. Vang called again.

Reichard jammed for Vang's last 96,000 on the {k-Diamonds} river, and Vang snap-called, tabling {7-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} for the nuts. Reichard's {10-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} went in the muck, and Vang raked in a big bubble double.

Edward Dixon Bubbles the 2019 WSOPC Potawatomi Main Event

Level 17 : 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Edward Dixon

Ravi Raghavan raised to 15,000 from the cutoff, and Edward Dixon three-bet shoved for 48,000 in the big blind. Raghavan called.

Edward Dixon: {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}
Ravi Raghavan: {10-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}

"Bubble ain't burstin' this hand, boys!" Dixon said with a smile.

The {10-Clubs}{7-Spades}{k-Spades} flop propelled Raghavan to the lead, while Dixon still had plenty of outs with two overs and a gutshot. The {3-Hearts} turn and {9-Clubs} river bricked off for Dixon, however, and he swiftly hit the rail, while the remaining 68 players are guaranteed a $2,533 payday.

Players are off on a ten-minute break.

Level 17 : 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Cody Brinn
Cody Brinn

There was heads-up action between Cody Brinn from late position and Andrija Solovjey on the button.

The board read {8-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{k-Clubs} and Brinn lead out for 35,000 into a 50,000 pot. Solovjey announced "all-in," and was snapped off by Brinn.

Cody Brinn: {a-}{k-}
Andrija Solovjey: {j-Diamonds}{j-Spades}

Brinn turned top-two pair but needed help as he was behind Solovjey's set of jacks.

Unfortunately for Brinn the river fell a brick with the {5-Hearts} and he was sent to the payout desk.

Janae Magnuson: {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}

Brown's Day Comes to a Close

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Jeremy Brown
Jeremy Brown

Jeremy Brown jammed for 96,000 from under the gun, and Nikolas Stone called in the big blind.

Jeremy Brown: {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}
Nikolas Stone: {a-Hearts}{j-Spades}

Brown's hopes were dashed as the {4-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{j-Hearts} flop gave Stone top pair, leaving him drawing to a queen or running straight cards to survive. The {a-Clubs} turn added a few outs with any king or queen giving Brown a double, but the {9-Hearts} river ended his run, instead.

Perrone Sets Up Magnuson for the Elimination

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Janae Magnuson
Janae Magnuson

Janae Magnuson opened under the gun for 20,000 and was called by Michael Perrone from early position along with Forrest Raleigh from the big blind.

The flop fell {7-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{3-Clubs} and Raleigh check-folded after Magnuson fired out 50,000 while Perrone called.

Magnuson check-called Perrone's 100,000 bet after the {6-Clubs} fell on the turn and checked her option one last time after the {5-Hearts} river completed the board.

Perrone announced "all-in" putting Magnuson at risk.

Magnuson turned around and looked at the payouts before she put her stack in the middle.

Michael Perrone: {9-Hearts}{9-Spades}
Janae Magnuson: {j-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}

Magnuson saw the bad news and told Perrone, "nice hand," before making her way to the payout desk.
