Welcome Back to Day 2!
Good afternoon from the Rio, and welcome back for day two of this $2,000 Limit Hold'em event. This event drew a field of 476 runners, and we've still got 144 fighting for the bracelet. This will be a big day as we play at least ten levels trying to reach our final table.
The chipleader is Joshua Honegger with 87,000 chips but there's a lot to play and the field has a lot of big names. Matt Glantz, Rep Porter, Shannon Shorr and Eric Buchman are all seated at the same table. Sorel MIzzi, Bob Lauria, Maria Ho and Liz Lieu are also in the field. Don't forget about Brock Parker or Ylon Schwartz either.
We're about twenty-five minutes away from our scheduled starting time of 2:30 p.m., and the final preparations are being made to the tournament tables here in the Red Section of the Amazon Room.
