The second most expensive Pot-Limit Omaha Event of the 2022 WSOP in its new home at Bally’s and Paris Las Vegas will be one step closer to crowning a champion when the action resumes at 2pm local time in the Bally's Event Center. Out of a field of 264 entries, only 28 players remain in contention for Day 2 of Event #19: $25,000 Pot-Limit Omaha High Roller and they all aim to make it through another day to reach the five-handed live-streamed showdown.
