A few players have considerably chipped up in the last few levels, most notably David St-Louis, who holds the current chip lead with a stack upward of 1,400,000. The stacks are fluctuating quickly atop the leaderboard however, and quite a few players are inches behind as the race for Day 3 is nearing its end.

Mustafa Erzincanli and his 1,300,000 chips are rivalling David’s chip lead, while Jeff Rosenblatt, Tina, Thierry Blanc, Kevin Daily and Sebastien Lapierre all sit comfortably north of the 1 million chip mark.

Only 39 players remain in The Wild $150, and this Day 2 will soon come to an end as we are but 12 eliminations away from Day 3.

Kevin Daily is the current chip leader with 57 players left in Day 2 of The Wild $150, and he is the only player currently in the 7-figures, as he holds a stack worth 1,030,000.

Play is just about to enter level 23, and we are still 30 eliminations away from the completion of this second day of Event 1. Once the final 27 players have been reached, they will bag their chips and resume the tournament tomorrow, Thursday at 7pm.

Players are being eliminated at a rapid pace here deep in Day 2 of The Wild $150, as the 234 players field has been reduced to just 73. Play will continue until the final 27 has been reached, and for now the man in charge is Thierry Blanc, who just scooped a big pot bringing him over the 820,000 chip mark. Kevin Daily has been chipping up recently as well, as he has climbed to the 775,000 chip mark. Jean-Sebastien Dore is maintaining his spot amongst the leaders, and sits in a healthy third place with roughly 750,000 to his name, while Robert Ouellet has increased his holdings up to 675,000 – good for fourth place.

There will be a short break in about 35 minutes, during which we will bring a more detailed update on the leaderboard.
