The Money Will Be Reached Here on Day 2 of Event #25

Mike Matusow will return to action on Day 2.
Mike Matusow will return to action on Day 2.

Today Event #25: $2,500 Omaha/Seven-Card Stud Hi-Low of the 2014 World Series of Poker continues as the remaining 139 players from a 470-player field look to play through the money and onward to the final table — or at least as close as they can get in 10 one-hour levels of play.

The top 48 players will earn a portion of the $1,069,250 prize pool, with the eventual winner taking home $267,327. Last year's champ, Mike Gorodinsky, who defeated a field of 374 players to win his first gold bracelet, fell in the last level of the night on Day 1, which means a new champion will be crowned.

"Womp Womp. No title defense for me this year. At least I actually played well today, cards just didn't cooperate. #OTTNO," Gorodinsky tweeted after his bust.

So who will be the next $2,500 Omaha/Seven-Card Stud Hi-Low champ? Will it be Cameron Tahmasebi, who begins today as the chip leader with 65,200? Or perhaps one of the other big stacks like Fu Wong (64,300), Brian Nichols (62,500), James Hoeppner (57,700), or Tom Schneider (57,600)?

All of these men have a chip advantage, but by no means do they have an easy path to the money. Among those standing in their way are John D’Agostino (54,900), Mike Leah (50,100), Michael Moed (46,300), Ashly Butler (40,800), Dutch Boyd (37,400), George Danzer (36,500), Mike Matusow (25,700), and Vanessa Selbst (22,300).

Speaking of Matusow, he joined PokerNews' Chad Holloway for an impromptu interview on Day 1 where he talked about playing in this event. Have a listen:

Cards will be in the air at 2 p.m. local time, which is about an hour from now. Join us then as we bring you all happenings from 10 more levels of play here in Event #25: $2,500 Omaha/Seven-Card Stud Hi-Low.
