Day 2 of Event #34: $1,500 Freezeout No-Limit Hold’em Begins at Noon
Welcome to Day 2 of Event #34: $1,500 Freezeout No-Limit Hold’em at Bally’s and Paris Las Vegas. Yesterday was an action-packed day that saw a field of 1,772 begin the tournament and of those, 158 players will be returning at 12:00 p.m. local time for Day 2.
Play will resume with Level 18 and blinds at 5,000/10,000 with 10,000 big blind ante. Levels will be 60-minutes long, with breaks after every two and a dinner break happening after Level 23 (approximately 6:30 p.m.).
The prize pool grew to $2,365,620 with 266 places getting paid. The remaining 158 contenders are all in the money, guaranteed a slice of the very large pie, and will battle it out over the next two days for the first place prize of $364,899 and a coveted World Series of Poker gold bracelet.
At the end of Day 1, the chip leader was Croatia’s Gregor Sverko, who bagged the only stack over one million with 1,046,000. Sverko has multiple cashes under his belt including his most recent ones from this WSOP in the MONSTER STACK No-Limit Hold’em ($2,625) and The Housewarming No-LImit Hold’em ($1,840.) He has yet to win a bracelet but with his strong start on Day 1, this event might be the one.
There are many notable players still in the field and with 10 levels to play through today, it is still anyone's game. Some of the ones to watch are Athanasios Polychronopoulos, who won this event in both 2011 and 2013 (588,000), and the next closest chip stacks to Sverko, Keith Kordowski (812,000), Raffaele Sorrentino (788,000), Jason Hickey (752,000), and Michel Leibgorin (679,000).
Stay tuned in to PokerNews starting at noon and for the rest of the day to catch all of the highlights from this exciting event.
