Cynthia Vencebi Bags Big in Wynn Summer Classic $1,600 Main Event
The Wynn Summer Classic $1,600 No-Limit Hold'em $2 Million Guaranteed is in full swing, and Cynthia Vencebi will return on Day 2 with a big stack after leading the Day 1B flight.
Vencebi bagged 782,000, good for nearly 80 big blinds when play resumes, with Nicholas Wang (699,000), Justin Young (689,000), and Mathieu His (662,000) all close behind at the top of the leaderboard.
A number of familiar faces remain in contention as the tournament plays toward its final table. Victoria Livschitz sits comfortably above average with 494,000, while high-stakes regular Olivier Busquet is still alive with 184,000. Joseph Buonomo also remains in the hunt, though he will return among the shorter stacks with 100,000.
With $500,500 awaiting the eventual champion and the average stack sitting at 325,581, plenty of room remains for movement when Day 2 gets underway.
