Patrick Clarke Leads Field On Day 2abc of Event #70: $10,000 No-Limit Hold'em Main Event World Championship
All four starting flights of Event #70: $10,000 No-Limit Hold'em Main Event World Championship at the 2022 WSOP at Bally's and Paris Las Vegas are now complete and today the 2,610 survivors of the first three of those flights combine into one field. That number is set to grow, however, as late registration is open through the second level of today's play.
Through the first three flights, it is Ireland's Patrick Clark who has bagged the overall lead with a massive stack of 397,200. Closest to catching him is Marcus Stein (336,800) with Day 1b chipleader Patrick Hagenlocher (332,800) rounding out the top three.
As expected in a such a large and prestigious tournament, many notables will be in the field today. They include Andrew Moreno (238,200), 2012 WSOP Main Event runner-up Jesse Sylvia (229,400) and PokerStars Team Pro member Andre Akkari (126,600).
