Godena Leads Dzivielevski, Bojang Into Day 2 of $2,500 Mixed Big Bet
Chip leader Jarryd Godena is just one of two players bringing over 200,000 chips into the Amazon room on Monday, November 15 for Day 2 of Event #69: $2,500 Mixed Big Bet, which starts at 2 p.m. PT.
From a returning field of 91 players, only Godena and partypoker ambassador Yuri Dzivielevski (210,800) managed to cross the 200,000 mark, with Ismael Bojang not far behind with 198,600.
On Sunday night 92 players out of the original 212 actually bagged up, however Dan Zack, who made Day 2 with 63,200 chips announced on Twitter this morning that he was suffering from Covid-19 symptoms and would be surrendering his stack.
Woke up with covid symptoms. Going to get tested but for now just want anyone who might’ve played with me past few… https://t.co/phwpJacale
