Artem Metalidi Leads The Pack For Day 2 of $5,000 Freezeout
Welcome to Day 2 of Event #12: $5,000 No Limit Hold’em Freezeout here at the 2023 World Series of Poker in Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas. A total of 735 players joined the action on Day 1 to create a massive prize pool of $3,381,000, and after the dust settled, only 148 remain in the hunt for WSOP gold.
Ukraine's Artem Metalidi secured the chip lead position with an impressive stack of 796,000, good for 100 big blinds. Metalidi, who is no stranger to these types of fields with over $3,600,000 in live earnings, will look to add to his impressive poker resume with a deep run here.
Also bagging healthy stacks were Matthew Hunt (519,000), four-time bracelet winner Josh Arieh (436,000), and Jeremy Becker (251,000), who's been on a run of a lifetime taking down ten tournaments since the start of the year to up his lifetime earning to just under $1 Million.

With 148 players returning to action in the gold section of the Horseshoe Event Center, all eyes will be on the money bubble looming closer. The top 111 will find a return on their investment with a min-cash being $8,011 and the eventual winner taking home $649,550.
Many other notables took to the green felts on Day 1 and some who couldn't find any run good include popular poker YouTuber Ethan "Rampage" Yau, multiple bracelet winners Alex Foxen, Chance Kornuth, and Daniel Negreanu, as well as Shaun Deeb, who finished second in the $1,000 No-Limit Hold'em Deepstack on WSOP.com early this morning.
The action kicks off at 1 p.m. local time today in the Horseshoe Event Center with blinds resuming at Level 16 with 4,000/8,000 and an 8,000 big blind ante. The plan is to play ten 60-minute levels and the remaining players will bag for Day 3 tomorrow, where a winner will be crowned.

Emmett Scores Double Up
Niveau 16
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
The action folded around to Randall Emmett on the button who moved all in for 129,000. The small blind quickly folded and Stanton Tentnowski in the big blind asked for a count. After some thought, Tentnowski made the call and the cards were shown.
Randall Emmett: 7♠7♦
Stanton Tentnowski: A♣7♣
Emmett found himself in great shape against the ace-seven, and when the board ran out Q♠9♦2♦6♠8♣, the sevens held up to score a full double up for Emmett and leave Tentnowski on a short-stack.
"That was a sweat! It's too early for this," said Emmett as he smiled and stacked up his newly acquired chips.

Buckner Scores Double Elimination
Niveau 16
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
The PokerNews team was called over to a table after the fact to hear a hand that had just happened.
A short-stacked player in early position moved all in for 45,000 and Robbi Jade Lew moved all in over the top for 82,000 next to act. It folded over to Steven Buckner in the cutoff who made the call to put both players at risk. The rest of the table got out of the way and the cards were shown.
Early Position: A♦9♦
Robbi Jade Lew: A♠K♦
Steven Buckner: A♣Q♥
Lew was in great shape preflop with the better kicker, but when the board ran out 8♦6♥3♣Q♠6♣, it was the turned queen that hit to score Buckner the pot and send two players to the rail.
