![[user313639]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
World Series of Poker Hall of Famer Barry Greenstein booked the last spot in Day 2 of Event #3: $3,000 No-Limit Hold’em Shootout. He beat Jim McCrink heads up when he flopped a pair of tens to jump ahead of McCrink’s pair of fours and held on.
Greenstein is joined by several notable players. Andre Akkari beat out Nicholas Palma heads up about 20 minutes before Greenstein locked up his seat. Taylor Paur outlasted Kenny Hallaert in one of the longer heads-up matches of the day. Linglin Zeng, Dominik Nitsche, Jean-Robert Bellande, and Matt Glantz all made Day 2 as well.
Others were not so lucky. Simon Deadman held a large chip lead against James Dambrosio, but was unable to finish him off and, eventually, Dambrosio earned the Day 2 seat. Despite seemingly having a great time, Dan O’Brien, Antonio Esfandiari, Scott Stewart, Ben Ludlow, Jeremy Ausmus all played but were at the same table, and Jake Schwartz ended up taking the spot by outlasting them all.
Tomorrow, 50 players will return to play down to a final table. Follow all the updates on PokerNews throughout the World Series of Poker.
