Day 2 Comes to an End
What started yesterday with a record-setting field of 3,142, the Seniors Championship was reduced to just 428 players heading into Day 2. Among those who started the day were Lon McEachern, Thor Hansen and Sam Simon, all of whom failed to make the money.
A number of notables did manage to survive the money bubble including Susie Isaacs, John Spadavecchia, Berry Johnston and T.J. Cloutier. Unfortunately, none of these players made it to the end of the day.
The biggest name remaining in the field is Tom Schneider, the 2007 Player of the Year who finishd Day 1 as the chip leader. Joining him for Day 3 is the last remaining woman in the field, Jeanne Nelson; Day 2 chipleader with over one million, Mike Minetti; and a number of other hopefuls well within striking distance.
The remaining 23 players will return tomorrow at 2:30 pm local time to play to a winner. PokerNews will bring you all of the updates then!
