Day 2 of the WPTDeepstacks Hollywood event isn’t the only game in town, we also have two new tournaments on the schedule running today. The first is Event 6, a $400 buy-in Deep Stacks NLH game with a $50,000 guaranteed prize pool and one-day structure starting at noon.
Players will sit down to 20,000 starting stacks and the tournament will run 30-minute levels from start to finish. Late registration is available until the start of Level 9 at 4:30 pm with unlimited re-entries available during that time. Tournament staff will send them on dinner break at 6 pm and players will return to play down to a champion.
We will be concentrating most of our efforts on the WPTDeepStacks tournament but will hit the highlights along the way until that tournament is complete.

After three starting flights of the WPTDeepStacks Hollywood event, it’s time to bring the survivors back for Day 2 at noon in the Seminole Ballroom to begin playing down. The tournament drew 1,404 entries, 273 still have chips after 15 levels, and they all have eyes on the $225,717 top prize.
Howard Mash held the chip lead after the first two flights but Steve Wilkie cruised past him in the third. His 615,000 is best to start Day 2 with Gil Nagar, Alexander Salcedo, Mash, and Paul Grigsby rounding out the top five.
The last 176 players will make the money and the bubble should burst before the first break. Their day will continue into the evening and they will halt play once they reach the final table nine. Those nine players will return tomorrow to play it out for the WPTDeepStacks title at 2 pm on the WPT live-stream stage.
Cards go back in the air at noon and we will have all the action.

Time is running out if you want to be part of this huge WPTDeepStacks field. They are into Level 9 and they are taking a one-hour dinner break in a few minutes. Once that is done, registration will close for the opening event of the series.
The entry count is closing on 600 for Day 1C and the combined total is up to 1,376 to top the 2018 WPTDeepStacks event, the last time we opened the series instead of closing with it.
$400 Big O (Re-Entry) Structure Level 9: 400/800 Entries: 87
Registration closed on the LHPO Big O tournament with an 87-entry field. That’s a great turnout with the WPTDeepStacks event playing at the same time.
Gabriel Ramos is one of the big stacks in contention and always a threat to take down the entire thing. He is currently sitting in a five-way tie for second on the all-time SHRP win list with five trophies. One more will put him alone by himself and only behind David Prociak’s seven titles.
