Event 57: $10,000 No-Limit Hold'em - Six-Handed

Day 2 Started

The Battle For The Money is On

Jason Mercier is among the returning players.
Jason Mercier is among the returning players.

There are 167 players remaining out of the 474 that started, but only 48 will get paid. The race for the money is on, and there are plenty of top-notch players still in the hunt!

Play will be very deep-stacked today, and the average comes down to just over 70 big blinds. Of course that doesn't matter that much for most players, and big all ins will be all over the place. Carter Phillips had his aces fully paid off by JC Tran yesterday, Tristan Wade got Harrison Gimbel to seven-bet his nines all in, and that is some of the action we are looking forward to again today.

Taylor Paur (152,800) and Chris Moorman (111,300), who both made the final table of this event last year, have a good chance at racking up another cash in this event, just like Williams Reynolds, Sean Getzwiller, Aaron Jones and Chris DeMaci who are also looking for back-to-back cashes.

Play will resume at 1:00 PM local time, and ten levels will be played today.

Level: 11

Blinds: 600/1,200

Schulman Takes a Hit

There was about 15,000 in the middle when we reached Table 415, and the flop had already fallen {j-Spades}{9-Spades}{5-Diamonds}. Nick Schulman bet 7,600, his opponent raised to 34,500, and Schulman re-raised to 100,000. His opponent called all in for 62,700, and the hands were opened.

Schulman{5-Spades}{4-Spades}
Opponent{9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}

The turn ({j-Hearts}) and the river ({7-Hearts}) were both bricks for Schulman, who dipped to 88,000.
