The players who made it to the end of Day 2 have just finished bagging up their chips. There were a total of 566 players who entered the tournament, of which 124 returned this afternoon for Day 2 action. The day started at 1 PM and played through ten levels of forty minutes each.
Throughout the entire day, there were no players who ran away from the pack and commanded the day, although John Araujo did have the lead for many hours. Many players had stacks that were very similar to each other and they were all in contention right up until the very end of the the last level. When the field returned from their final break of the day, the final two levels played out both fast and furious. Some of the players were able to double their stacks, others collected payout slips as their day came to an end.
Our chip leader heading into Day 3 is local grinder Adam Cader, who at the final break of the day, was sitting in 3rd place with 890,000. He managed to work it up to bag the only stack north of 2M chips, bagging an impressive 2,295,000. He is followed closely by local Christian Rho (1,995,000). In the end, a total of 16 players bagged chips. The Day 3 seating redraws with full counts for the remaining field will be published when the information becomes available.
