Day 2 of Event #4: $1,500 Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better Set to Begin
Welcome back to Day 2 of Event #4: $1,500 Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better. Yesterday players played through the first 10 levels and leading the final 254 was WSOP Circuit ring winner Rex Clinkscales. He hasn’t locked up his first bracelet yet, but he will look to carry his day 1 lead into a strong finish here in Event #4.
Hot on his heels are several who have already locked up their first WSOP gold bracelets, including Hani Awad, John Monnette, Mike Wattel and Tuan Le. Rounding out the top five stacks coming into the day is Clinkscales (96,200), James Chen (92,400), Tuan Le (79,000), Chad Phillips (68,000) and Aaron Steury (64,100).
Players will play through a second set of 10 levels today. With 254 players to start the day, they are just over 100 eliminations away from bursting the money bubble. The 905 entrants created a prize pool of $1,357,500 and a first-place prize of $238,620. A minimum cash in today’s event will take home $2,253.
