Day 2 Completed
Event #41: $10,000 Seven-Card Stud Hi-Low Championship began on Friday with 11 players. That field was trimmed down to 64 players with Ryan Miller leading the way. After Day 1 and after another 10 levels on Saturday, only 11 players remain.
On top of the chip counts now is Stephen Chidwick, arguably the best player in the game without a bracelet. He'll be looking to capture that elusive piece of jewelry on Sunday, but a tough contingent of pros stand in his way. Max Pescatori is second in chips and already has a bracelet this summer, winning the $1,500 Razz event. Also still in the field is none other than Daniel Negreanu, who called his shot on Day 1 and said he was taking this one down. You can read about Negreanu's Day 2 here as we kept a close eye on his progress throughout the ups and down of his day.
Play resumes at 2 p.m. Sunday and the plan is to play until a champion emerges, though a Day 4 might be needed.
Here are the chip counts for the remaining 11 players:
