With the field now at 45 players, the Extravaganza is down to just 5 final tables. Roughly half of Day 2 is behind us as we are midway through level 20, and another 3 hours of play separates the players from bagging for Day 3.
The chip lead is now shared by Maxime Blanchard and Karam Saleh, who both hold roughly 770,000 in chips. Not far behind are Chuhang Zhou and Larry Jr Raymond, with stacks upwards of 500,000.
