Big Names Including Daniel Negreanu in $1,500 8-Game Day 2
A field of 104 players will retake their seats today with Day 2 of the $1,500 8-Game Mix 6-Handed with a whole host of star names still in the hunt for a bracelet.
While the likes of Vanessa Selbst, Paul Volpe, Max Pescatori, and David Bach all exited on Day 1, there are still plenty of players with rich and storied poker-playing careers still in.
Last year's $2,500 Mixed Triple Draw Lowball bracelet winner Christopher Vitch leads after eliminating the aforementioned Bach in one of the last hands of the night. Joining him in Day 2 is six-time bracelet winner Daniel Negreanu who, after getting an all-in through early on, never looked in trouble on his way to bagging up an above-average stack.
Other players include Frenchmen Fabrice Soulier and Alex Luneau, Sam Grafton, Tom Schneider, Carol Fuchs, Naoya Kihara, Josh Beckley, Eli Elezra, Shaun Deeb, David "ODB" Baker, Jimmy Fricke, and Mike Watson.
Also in the field is Jason and Natasha Mercier, who bagged up near-identical stacks. We will have to wait and see how their respective stacks trend when plays gets underway at 2 p.m. later today.
