The last of 3 starting flights to the WPT Canadian Spring Championship is now over, and with that we are now ready for Day 2, set for tomorrow, Monday May 2nd at 12pm.
Jiachen Gong
Of the 417 entries culminated from all three flights, 181 players will return tomorrow to pursue their ultimate goal: to become the next WPT Canadian Spring Champion! Leading the field is Jiachen “Jack” Gong, who stormed up the leaderboard in the last moments of play in Day 1c to finish with 182,400 in chips. He was our TonyBet Winter Festival Main Event champion earlier this year, and is now on the hunt for his second title of the year. Second in chips is Ivan Fazal Karim, who bagged 165,500 today, and third is Jason Hedler (163,900) who finished in the chip lead on Day 1b.
A full list of player-reported chip counts will be made available very shortly, as well as the seating assignment for tomorrow’s Day 2 of the WPT Canadian Spring Championship.
See you on the felts!
