Bryce Yockey waited seven years to win his second World Series of Poker bracelet when he took down the $5,000 Pot-Limit Omaha event earlier this series. His quest for a third might be a lot shorter.
Yockey ended Day 1 of Event #29: $10,000 Limit 2-7 Triple Draw Championship among the chip leaders with 213,000. He’s joined atop the leaderboard by fellow bracelet winners Naoya Kihara (237,000), Calvin Anderson (210,500), and Jason Mercier (206,500) as 65 players will return tomorrow.
