Ryan Leng Poised for a Repeat as Michael Dobbs Leads on Day 2

dsalituro

Defending champion Ryan Leng was all in for his tournament life, his hopes of repeating hanging on a draw against top set.

The miracle royal flush on the turn propelled Leng up the chip count leaderboard on his way to entering Day 2 with 151,500, his quest to go back-to-back in this event still alive.

Just 199 players stand between Leng and another bracelet when Event #48: $1,500 Eight Game Mix resumes at 2 p.m. local time inside the Bally’s Event Center. Leading the way is Michael Dobbs, who turned his 25,000 starting stack into 293,100 heading into Day 2.

An impressive field of top pros are among the 200 surviving players out of a starting field of 695. Robert Campbell, the 2019 Player of the Year, is just outside the top-10 on the leaderboard with 181,800. Scotty Nguyen (160,800), recent bracelet winner Ali Eslami (130,000), and Josh Arieh (119,300) also carry comfortable stacks into the day. Adam Friedman (63,000), Shaun Deeb (60,900), and Maria Ho (60,000) have their work cut out for them on below-average stacks.
