Welcome to Day 2 coverage of Event #45: $5,000 No-Limit Hold'em (30-minute levels).

The starting field of 505 players is down to just 49 survivors, each looking to outlast the field and capture a coveted World Series of Poker bracelet along with the first-place prize of $527,555. On top of the chip counts entering Day 2 is Diego Sanchez with 661,000.

Sanchez found himself on the winning side of a race on the money bubble, eliminating Loni Harwood. Sanchez held pocket queens, Harwood had ace-king, and a third queen found the board to vault Sanchez up the leaderboard en route to his bagging the chip lead. Rounding out the top five are Dennis Blieden (561,000), Jake Bazeley (509,000), Max Silver (504,000), and Conor Beresford (488,000).

Action in Event 45 resumes at noon and will continue until a winner emerges.
