After three starting flights over the early weekend, the $3,500 Wynn Millions Championship in Las Vegas is in full swing as 230 players return to their seats for Day 2. One of the annual marquee events on the Las Vegas strip boasted a $2,000,000 guaranteed prizepool which was met with ease as 694 entries were recorded during the registration period, creating a prizepool of over $2.2 million to play for in the coming days.
With a starting stack of 50,000 chips, it was no surprise that Calvin Anderson managed to spin up a stack of 554,500 after just 10 levels on Day 1. Anderson made a deep run to the final table a couple of years ago and will be looking to improve on that in the 2026 rendition. The only player to bag more chips after Day 1 was Michael Babani who accumulated 599,500 chips, nearly 12 starting stacks to lead the field. Rounding out the top three stacks is Scott Ball who will be returning to a stack of 553,500 chips.

The field has been littered with household names from across the globe, but heavily weighted toward the American contention. Other big stacks to keep an eye on include Nick Pupillo, Brek Schutten, Aaron Massey, and Tyler Patterson. One of the most prolific players in the current day is Alex Foxen but he will have his work cut out for him as he returns on the short stack with just 11 big blinds.
The action is slated to resume at 12 p.m. PST today as players look to maneuver their way into the money on Day 2. They will be returning to level 11 with the blinds at 1,500/2,500 and a 2,500 big blind ante. The levels will continue to be 60 minutes throughout the remainder of the tournament with a 15-minute break after every two levels. Only eight levels are on the schedule for Day 2 with another eight on Day 3. The final table will be formed on Day 4 with a champion being declared on the fifth and final day of this event.
Players will also be playing 9-handed today but that will be reduced to eight players per table as of Day 3 and going forward. The prizepool and payouts will be announced at the start of the day, but with 12.5% of the field reaching the money, you can expect around 87 places getting paid. The action clock will also be put into play at the start of level 15 today, each player receiving three time-bank chips.
