Joey Couden took out a Hollywood star and became the star on Day 2 of Event #45: $1,500 Mixed Omaha Hi-Lo at the 2003 World Series of Poker at the Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas.
Couden knocked out actor James Woods with set over set on his way to bagging up a chip-leading stack of 2,885,000. The World Series of Poker bracelet winner, who won his lone title in a $1,500 Omaha Hi-Lo event in 2018, is in pole position over the remaining 33 players when play resumes on June 21 at 1 p.m. local time.
Nick Kost, already with a runner-up finish in an Omaha Hi-Lo event this series, is in second place after winning what he called the “pot of the tournament.” Kost took out Sam Farha and doubled up off Mark Erickson to win a massive pot and take the tournament chip lead early on Day 2. He then knocked out Leonid Yanovski by hitting a ten on the river on his way to ending the night with 2,010,000.
Day 2 Top 10 Chip Counts

|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Joey Couden | United States | 2,885,000 |
| 2 | Nick Kost | United States | 2,010,000 |
| 3 | Carlos Guerrero | United States | 1,606,000 |
| 4 | Shaun Deeb | United States | 1,490,000 |
| 5 | Chris DeMaci | United States | 1,455,000 |
| 6 | Alex Livingston | Canada | 1,340,000 |
| 7 | Allan Le | United States | 1,290,000 |
| 8 | William Kerkaert | United States | 1,030,000 |
| 9 | Zhen Cai | United States | 1,025,000 |
| 10 | Raj Vohra | United States | 1,020,000 |
Right behind them on the leaderboard is Shaun Deeb, who will be on a quest for his seventh WSOP bracelet and second this year when he returns to the tables with 1,490,000. Alex Livingston (1,340,000), Allan Le (1,290,000), and Zhen Cai (1,025,000) also finished in the million-chip club, while Martin Zamani (625,000) and Leif Force (320,000) are further down the leaderboard and will look to make a big move on the final day.
Day 2 began with 316 players out of a starting field of 1,091. Only 164 would make the money, and along the way, Dan Zack, Jeff Lisandro, and Barny Boatman joined Farha in falling short of the money.
Once the bubble burst, Day 1 chip leader Scott Clements (161st), Mike Matusow (130th), Allen Kessler (102nd), Woods (65th), Ben Lamb (60th), and Men Nguyen (55th) made the walk to the payout desk.
The action picks up on Day 3 in Level 26 at 1pm local time, with Pot-Limit blinds of 10,000-20,000 and limits of 40,000-80,000. Every player remaining is already guaranteed $7,279 and is eying the $253,651 top prize and coveted WSOP gold bracelet. The plan is to reduce the 33 surviving players down to a final table and, ultimately, a champion.
PokerNews will also be back on Day 3, providing updates as the remaining field gets whittled down until just one is left standing.

Big O
On one of the last hands of Day 2, Thomas Taylor found himself all in for 136,000 from the hijack and up against Zhen Cai in the cutoff.
Thomas Taylor: A♠Q♠10♣10♠3♦
Zhen Cai: A♦7♥6♣4♦3♣
The board ran out 2♣J♠4♥4♣2♦ and Cai made trip fours to send Taylor to the payout desk right before players bagged up for the night.

Heads-up on a 10♥J♠4♦ flop, Zhen Cai bet 110,000 from the small blind before Benjamin Miner raised all in for 340,000 in the big blind. Cai quickly called.
Benjamin Miner: A♠A♥4♥3♣2♦
Zhen Cai: J♥10♦8♥8♦7♥
Cai was ahead with his top two pair as the 6♠ fell on the turn. Miner was now drawing to a low but instead spiked the A♣ on the river to make a set.
Miner didn't realize he doubled up at first. "I was focused on the low," he said before scooping up the big pot.

Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo
Shaun Deeb raised to 32,000, and the player on the button called. Octaviano Duran went all in from the big blind for around 130,000, and with action back on Deeb, he paused very briefly before announcing pot.
The button folded to send Deeb and Duran to a runout with Duran at risk.
Octaviano Duran: A♥10♥8♣4♦
Shaun Deeb: A♠K♦J♠10♦
Duran was in rough shape, and when the flop came K♠J♦2♠, he was drawing even thinner to survive.
The turn and river came the 9♦ and 5♣, and with that, Deeb showed another player the door as he continues chipping up late into the night.

Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo
Lawrence Brandt moved all in for around 105,000 from the button and Jeff Vaughn called in the small blind.
Lawrence Brandt: Q♥Q♣5♠4♣3♣
Jeff Vaughn: A♦J♠J♦6♠
Brandt was ahead with his queens until the 7♠10♦A♥ flop gave Vaughn a pair of aces. The board ran out 10♠7♦ and Vaughn's ace sent Brandt to the rail.
"Really," Vaughn said in shock that his pair held up to secure him the knockout.

Big O
A massive three-way all in developed that saw Jesse David all in for 70,000, Andrew Seabright all in for around 350,000, and Rodney Assous having both players covered and at risk.
Jesse David: A♦9♥7♥6♠5♦
Andrew Seabright: A♠A♥K♠9♦8♠
Rodney Assous: A♣9♠7♠3♠2♣
The flop read J♥4♥9♣, while David made a flush on the K♥ turn. The river, though, came the K♣ and Seabright made a full house, kings and nines, to scoop the entire pot and send David to the rail.
After the hand, even the dealer remarked that it was the biggest pot he had witnessed today.
