Some 788 hopefuls started the penultimate day already in the money, but eyeing the top prize of $343,010. However, an action-packed Day 2 reduced that number to just 19 players, who will return for Day 3 on July 10.
A handful of previous bracelet winners made it to Day 2, including Ivo Donev, Jordan Hufty and Greg Raymer who was busted by Michah Trexler. All made the money but didn’t advance to Day 3.
Only one $25k Fantasy Draft player returned for Day 2, Andres Korn , who busted the tournament a few hours into the day.
